July 2023 wild makeover tip: pavement plants

Appreciate pavement plants with Pesticide Action Network's new 'Greener Cities' guide, which quotes Rewild My Street: "We must make space for wild plants in our city streets to increase urban greenery, which helps biodiversity, residents' health and wellbeing, and adaptation to climate change. We can rethink streets to incorporate wildflowers in road verges, green roofs, street planters and window boxes; natural parklets reclaimed from parking spaces; and native climbers and shrubs covering walls and forming hedges."
