I am totally a fan of ...More plants in the cities! <br />I am totally a fan of this. <br /><br />Unfortnately city architects and city councils try to establish plants as parts of decoration (like seen on your pictures). For me, plants inherent a kind of wilderness; that is, what makes them beautiful to me. Not saying, that a plant for itself can be pure perfection. <br />I don't know how it is in New York, but wherever I see a tree in the city, I also see a dog pooh next to it - sometimes wrapped in plastic bags...<br /><br />I see the monumental aspect a surviving tree can have. But for me a working vital ecosystem would show a greater benefit than feeding single isolated trees as kind of an artifical showroom. <br /> <br />It would show both: the human's respect to the trees and other plants itself and their own connection to the ecological processes in general. <br /><br />kind regards, <br />René<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
