The Plateau in Blixembosch Buiten, already plenty of green!
In Blixembosch Buiten, construction activities on Het Plateau are in full swing. There pulls the
nature doesn’t care that much. In fact, there is a lot of flora and fauna that feels right at home
in this ‘pioneering phase’. The Plateau is being developed sustainably, with a lot of attention for
water, climate and biodiversity. There is already a lot to see, now that the water storages have their have a definitive nature-friendly shape, are sown all around and the shore is ecological
planted. This autumn we will still be planting native trees and shrubs at the water storage facilities.
Birds, butterflies and insects:
Besides the already beautiful herbaceous vegetation, many butterflies and insects fly around. Also be many species of birds have already been spotted in this area: goldfinches, balancing on the sturdier herbs, the little plover (loves construction sites), house and warblers and the house martin, skimming and drinking from the western watershed. Expected to settle in the future also several species of amphibians and small mammals.
Herb-rich vegetation:
We manage both the shore and the water storage facilities in a natural way (extensive): 2x a year
mowing, where we dispose of the clippings. In this way a herbal-richvegetation, with attractive and varied plants. In addition, greenery and water help the climate-proof living environment. The different types of green provide shade, absorb water, retain it and evaporate it again (provides cooling). Green also absorbs CO2 (carbon dioxide) and captures particulate matter. And of course wearing all this green contributes to a pleasant and healthy living environment.
Take a nice autumn walk through Blixembosch Buiten and enjoy the beautiful (autumn) green and the many bird species, insects, butterflies, rabbits and other small mammals!
