Street Plants

Street plants refer to vegetation that naturally grows along urban streets and sidewalks, often without formal planting efforts. They include trees, shrubs, grasses, and other greenery that adapt to city environments, contributing to improved air quality, shade, and aesthetic appeal. These plants often thrive in cracks, abandoned lots, or roadside soil, playing a vital role in urban ecosystems by supporting biodiversity and mitigating pollution. Recognizing street plants emphasizes the importance of integrating green spaces into city planning to promote environmental health and enhance residents’ quality of life.
