Abstract
Based on the thoughts of restoration ecology and aesthetics and the analysis of functions of slope planting, this paper indexes eight important evaluations, including green period, relative coverage, richness degree, interception flux, comprehensive resistance, stabilizing effect of root system, aesthetic degree of landscape, maintenance and management level. The quantification method, the weight of each index and the proper evaluation time are given. Finally, the quality grade of expressway slope planting is determined.
