Turning rooftops, balconies and terrace into visual delights that overflow-often quite literally-with cooling shades of green, interspersed with luxuriant flowers, is an urban trend that has been gaining traction in Pakistan. The benefits are varied and numerous. Plants cleanse the atmosphere of potentially harmful pollution and help keep temperatures (inside and out) at an acceptable level. Furthermore, sky-high urban gardens provide an ideal setting to relax within the confines of your house, while serving as magnets for bees, butterflies and birds which have, without access to their environmental necessities, largely disappeared from our cities.<\/p>
