Acorn
an urban greening landscape for desert cities
Acorn is an urban greening landscape for desert cities. This fertilizer-compressed sheet can provide fertilizer to plants after Acorn has been planted in the sand, and it has a strong ability to absorb and retain water, locking in the plant’s moisture. Over time, it will slowly decompose in the sandy earth. Acorn not only reduces the cost of afforestation in desert areas, but also improves planting efficiency and beautification.
