Biodiversity and environmental well-being in Montegrande
The park will increase its trees with the planting of new specimens and shrub species, which will provide an increase in biodivesity in the area, as well as natural shade spaces.
Among the new species include bougainvillea, carex comans, centranthus album and phillyrea angustifolia.
The new Torreagüera park not only aims to improve the well-being of citizens by offering a renewed meeting and recreation space for everyone;
In addition, it is a project that bets on the environmental benefit since it has improved its irrigation system and has incorporated upholstered plant species to make more efficient and responsible use of a resource as precious and scarce as water.
