This study was performed to develop the plantable concrete block using rice straw ash and apply for inclined plane. For the planting, plantable concrete block needs infiltration of water and air through void of block. The materials used for plantable concrete block are cement, rice straw ash, and coarse aggregate (5-10, 10-20 mm). Plantable block size is $23\times23\times4$ cm, and species of planting are Tall fescue, Lespedeza cyrtobotrya and Lespedeza cuneata. At the 6 months after seeding, germination ratio and grown-up length of Tall fescue, Lespedeza cyrtobotrya and Lespedeza cuneata are shown in 90%, 60%, 50%, and 40~50 cm, 90~120 cm, 60~75 cm, respectively.

This study is performed to examine the development of the plantable concrete using excellent soil compound, crushed stone, stone dust and superplasticizer. The following conclusions are drawn ; The void ratio is in the range of $25.10{\sim}31.40%$ and the compressive strength is in the range of $69{\sim}113kgf/cm^{2}$ at the curing age 28days, respectively. The plant length was showed higher block by 10% stone dust than 20%.
