Where there used to be only lawn, a low-maintenance plant bed has now been created. The diverse flowering perennials and grasses form a resilient and largely self-regulating plant community that adapts well to the often challenging conditions of urban environments in times of climate change or prolonged dry periods and heavy rain events. At the same time, they provide a diverse plant display that enriches this small, urban recreational space for visitors. More greenery (bio-volume) also provides additional cooling through evapotranspiration, which is very welcome in the city during the summer months.

Increased biodiversity In terms of biodiversity, an essential issue today, the plant community also contributes to increased biodiversity and provides new habitat for extremely important pollinator insects such as wild bees and others. The planting project will be monitored by biologists over the next 12 months, and the effect on insect diversity will be evaluated periodically. With this knowledge, we can continue to design urban green space more optimally in terms of biodiversity.
