These small parks provide not only soothing refuge from hectic city life, but also provides a haven for nature’s creatures that have been displaced by development. Even in a small room or attic space, a small terrarium which needs little care and can be placed anywhere where there is ample sunlight such as a windowsill can give you a piece of nature in the concrete jungle that is the city. Potted plants and shrubs give a warn earthy look to utterly harsh concrete paths and corridors. Just be sure to choose hardy plants that are native to the area so they have the necessary adaptations for the said area preventing die-offs.
