The town hall of Paris is reviewing its greening project. Some flower boxes at the foot of the trees will be redeveloped, as previous initiatives have not been convincing.
Improvised gardens at the foot of trees, this is what Parisians have been denouncing for months. “Look at what state it is in, it’s lamentable (…). It’s not good for the trees and it’s very ugly“, laments, exasperated, Didier Rykner, managing editor of The Art Tribune.
The mayor of Paris has just recognized this problem and has initiated a plan of 10 million euros so that these trees are taken back. To avoid young shoots, the cast iron grids will return to the foot of the trees. A measure hailed by environmentalists. “Gardener is a profession that requires care and in the end, the trees in question were endangered“, believes Christine Nedelec, president of France Nature Environnement Paris. However, some Parisians got used to to these improvised gardens.
