Reforestation of native species is a priority of our ecosystems intervened or severely affected. W. tomentosa is a dominant plant in the regional climax and very common in the mountainous forests of the northern Andes. In Colombia it is mainly found in the eastern cordillera. It is considered one of the main pre-climaxed slopes and hence its pioneering behavior as a competitor, that’s why ecological studies are needed, to know their propagation, physiology, among others. the establishment of W. tomentosa is conducive to the development of other species of moorland and hillside locations.
