Increasing Native Species in the City of London

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

Fit-out projects are rarely able to declare that they are making an improvement to the landscape.

To counteract this, the contractor is increasing the planting area from the original plan, with native species of plants phased in that will bloom over a longer period.

Native shrub and hedge species, trees and grass/wildflower mixes are better for biodiversity and are reflected more positively in the metric. The planting mix for this project has plenty of pollinator interest which will be of benefit to invertebrates and bats.
