Plants or Rockery for Slopes?

We’ve been fortunate to acquire some land to extend our garden over the past year and amongst it all we have a play tunnel/hill that solved an excess earth problem for us! I planted a few things in in the Autumn but we’ve had a good testing with the rain and, of course, we’ve suffered some land sliding! My question is, would you go with a rockery set up to prevent movement or are there some great plants that will quickly knit it together?

    Hypericum calycinum is quite good for growing on slopes.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
