Our client has planted a mixture of grass species in a vegetated area. Some of the species have withered and only one has remained and keeps growing.

Is it possible to achieve this credit through plant troughs?

Dear All, We are currently working on a five storey office building and instead of going to a vegetated roof we are planning to have plant troughs all around the building in every level.

Our project is on a sloped site so the main entry (we call it "ground floor") in above another entry point where part of the building is embedded in the earth.
