Vertical Garden in Bengaluru

[vivek]

I happened to witness this vertical garden on Hosur road on the Electronic City flyover pillar (saw it only on one pillar) - http://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/bangalore/cover-story/now-a-vertical-garden-is-growing-on-hosur-road-too/articleshow/57637626.cms.

Anybody witnessed this elsewhere? Or has more details about it? Seeing that it was being done only on one pillar I'm assuming this is some kind of pilot project to test the feasibility. I hope they do this everywhere.

Regards,

Vivek

Great.. But, isn't it a costly initiative? Vertical garden setup & maintenance is quite expensive. Creepers tree which grow under the shade may be another simpler option.

Hope this is not a move to pull wool over people's eyes, to justify chopping down trees elsewhere, for hare-brained schemes like that steel flyover.  Might be a good move in itself, but it gets my paranoia-sense tingling.

Yes, it's a pilot project carried out by a group called SayTrees.

They have been planting trees in and around Bengaluru since a long time and have done a great job till date. It's completely a volunteer driven group and so anyone can participate in there tree plantation and maintainence activities.
