The invention belongs to the technical field of soil improvement and vegetation recovery, and particularly relates to an ecological restoration planting material for landfill closure and a regreeningmethod. The planting material is prepared from, by weight, 60%-80% of planting soil, 10%-20% of sandy soil, 3%-6% of organic fertilizer, 1.5%-2.5% of sludge, 1%-2% of a water-retaining agent, 1%-2% ofsawdust, 3%-6% of water and 0.5%-1.5% of compound fertilizer. The ecological restoration planting material for landfill closure improves soil for the complex growth environment after landfill closurein a targeted mode, growth of plants is better facilitated, and ecological regreening can be achieved as soon as possible; in addition, matching of the planting material is scientific, no pollution exists, the seedling survival rate is high, the regreening effect is good, and the adverse effect caused by the complex environment after landfill closure on growth of the plants can be effectively relieved; material taking for all components is convenient, waste such as the sawdust and the sludge is added into the planting material, waste reuse is achieved, and ecological environmental protectionis achieved; matching is easy, and the operability is achieved.
