The invention relates to the field of plant remediation technology for soil contaminated by PAHs, specifically to a remediation method for soil contaminated by PAHs by using the gramineous plant Festuca arundinacea. The gramineous plant Festuca arundinacea is planted in soil contaminated by PAHs; in the process of germination, growth and maturation of the plant, PAHs in the soil are degraded, removed or substantially reduced through combined action of the growth process and root exudates of the plant. According to the method, the ornamental plant Festuca arundinacea is planted in the soil contaminated by PAHs for remediation of the soil contaminated by PAHs; compared with a traditional contaminated soil treatment method, the method provided by the invention has the advantages of small investment, small work amount, low technical requirements, etc. Moreover, as Festuca arundinacea is an ornamental and economic plant, planting of Festuca arundinacea enables PAHs contamination in environmental soil to be effectively degraded and contaminated plants not to enter into a food chain, thereby utmostly reducing ecological risks caused by treatment of the contaminated soil.
