minus-squareAnahkiasen@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up15·9 months agoFor comparison in Berlin it’s real grass and it’s wilding and I love it (well as much as it can have already for early spring)
minus-squaredanieljuschus@feddit.orgOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·9 months agoThe main point is that it’s not a sealed surface, ie it can take up water
minus-squareWIZARD POPE💫@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoHow exactly is a lawn not grass?
minus-squarezabadoh@ani.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoOh I understand what you’re saying now. The OP said the grass/lawn is new, so the quickest way to lay down grass is with sod, i.e. rolls of cultivated grass mat. It’s just a start, and the flowers and other diverse plants will come later as seeds naturally disperse onto the new greenways. It’s up to whatever government department maintains the tramways how they want to maintain the greenways.
minus-squareWIZARD POPE💫@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoI’ll have to disagree. Yeah lawns are bad and all but your argument is also incorrect. A meadow has grass and other flowering plants. A purely grass lawn is still grass.
minus-squarezabadoh@ani.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 months agoMaybe they mean it’s artificial grass?
