But indeed , many other cities already have an subsist social system , and verdure is being carry out within the existing grid of streets and buildings .

On the other hand , GreenTech was an eye - opener in the field of modern greenhouse technology that is used in the Netherlands and export all over the man .

The grouping visited the garden of Piet Oudolf , who is also very famous in Poland . They chose Vlinderhof ( Maximapark , Utrecht ) as it is the only garden designed by him and growing in a public park .
