• often used in parks and landscaped areas with large amounts of natural greenery; • performs a decorative function; • often used as a barrier (limiting the vehicles access); • concrete structures are sometimes used as seating; • usually maintenance heavy; • the plants last only one season (specifically, warm season), lack of primary use in winter; • rainfall from the sidewalks can’t get into such flowerbeds; • such flowerbeds can add greenery in places where bedding-out is limited (i.e. above the utility networks) or there’s a need in flexibility in space usage.
