Completion of the renovation in Bessunger Straße and plantings in the entire city area
As the city of Griesheim reports, the planting of a total of 30 new trees in the city area begins in the course of this week. Twelve new trees are set in Bessunger Straße alone - a visible sign of completing the fundamental road renovation.
Sustainable tree species for the city center
The city specifically relies on climate-resistant species that can withstand longer heat and dry phases. Be planted:
- Autumn flame maple
- American amber tree
- Columna tree
- Japanese Zelkove
- Purple
These tree species are particularly robust compared to weather extremes and are ideal for inner -city locations. They also have a high tolerance to road salt - an important factor for winter operation. To protect against sun cracks, each tree is provided with a thermal white paint.
The beds around the new trees are also sustainably upgraded: Special seeds should green the areas within three years and create new habitat for bees and insects.
Another 18 trees in Griesheim districts
At the same time, the city's building yard is also active: 18 more trees are planted at various locations in the city area. Various species such as cord tree, chestnut, birdberry, amber tree, alder, hornbeam, apple tree and various types of maple are used here.
Plant locations include:
- St. Stephans Square
- Playground "Alter Kirchhof"
- South-west youth resort
- Place bar-le-duc
- Viktoriastraße and Willy-Brandt-Allee
- Vineyard
- Agilatrudstrasse
- Kitas "Sandgasse" and "Rauststraße"
The planting campaigns are part of the urban concept for upgrading the city size and a contribution to promoting biodiversity in urban areas.
