Costa Georgiadis Instagram – There are so many examples of good intent when it comes to greening our cities. You walk past them all the time and want to share the vision and success. But then there are all those other examples that get close but fall down with one little detail or another that doesn’t get considered. In this case some nice container gardens to green streetscapes but because they’re under an awning they need that regular weekly care and attention because they don’t see any natural rain. Throw on top of that the heat of the road and classic windblown urban environments and they dry out very quickly. Gardens like this need to be programmed into the regular care and maintenance of the premises just like the cleaners. Without that consistency any chance for success is limited. What about wicking beds you say. Well they are an option but again a wicking bed has to be attended to and have its wicking well filled up regularly as well. So the bottom line is that container gardens need regular weekly care. Then Watch em thrive. | Posted on 03/Jul/2024 19:49:24
