Świnoujście in Poland Blooming with Flower Towers and Sustainable Development
Świnoujście Delights Once Again!
The colorful and lush flower towers have made their appearance on the streets of Świnoujście once again, adding vibrancy and freshness to the urban landscape. This year, the city has opted for exceptionally beautiful plant arrangements that captivate passersby with their diversity and brightness.
A Floral Spectacle on the Beloved Towers
This year’s flower towers feature a stunning array of Surfinia and Begonia, filling the planters with a rich palette of colors, ranging from intense reds to delicate pastel shades. But that’s not all – among these compositions, one can also spot Pelargoniums, adding an extra touch of charm. These flowers are not only a feast for the eyes but also a vital source of nectar for pollinating insects, which is crucial in the context of environmental protection.
A Harmony of Aesthetics and Ecology
For years, Świnoujście has taken great care of the aesthetics of its public spaces while maintaining a strong commitment to ecological responsibility. The flower towers are not just decorations but also a part of the city’s strategy for sustainable development. Through initiatives like this, the city promotes the concept of being “green,” striving to create a space that is friendly to both people and nature. It’s a beautiful example of how aesthetics can go hand in hand with ecology.

Small Urban Architecture – A Key Element of Public Spaces with the New Cube Planter Collection from Terra Group
Small urban architecture plays a crucial role in shaping the aesthetics and functionality of urban landscapes. Benches, trash bins, planters, pergolas, bus shelters, and lighting elements are details that have a significant impact on the comfort, safety, and overall perception of urban space by its users.
The Role and Importance of Small Urban Architecture
Improving the Aesthetics of Urban Spaces
One of the main tasks of small urban architecture is to enhance the aesthetics of public spaces. Carefully selected elements such as stylish benches, colorful planters, or modern streetlights can significantly raise the visual standard of a city, creating a cohesive and thoughtfully designed urban landscape.
Increasing Functionality and Comfort
Small urban architecture is primarily about practical elements that make everyday life in the city easier. Benches provide a place to rest, trash bins help maintain cleanliness, and lighting increases safety after dark. Each of these elements contributes to improving the quality of life for residents.
Impact on the Local Community
Small urban architecture also has a significant impact on the life of the local community. Places such as playgrounds or small amphitheaters become points of meeting, integration, and community development. They promote building human relationships and activating residents.
Key Elements of Small Urban Architecture
Benches: Allow for rest and are places for observing city life.
Trash bins: Help keep public spaces clean.

Unwrapping the Debate: Christmas Tree in the City Center Sparks a Festive Controversy on Public Symbols and Traditions
Every year for several good years, there has been a debate about whether the Christmas tree placed in the city center is a beautiful decoration or an attack on people of other faiths. Interestingly, this dispute often seems to be inflated only in the media because when we talk about it with friends, it turns out that no one (even of a different faith) minds the sight of a glowing Christmas tree.
Let’s assume, however, that the people we talked to just happened to all have similar opinions, and in reality, it’s different. In that case, we should consider where the Christmas tree came from in the first place, but we’ve already discussed that topic—feel free to read the previous article if you’re interested in a historical journey back to the origins of the Christmas tree in our culture.
Next, we should think about what positive things the Christmas tree brings into our lives and what negative feelings it may evoke, and most importantly, where these negative and positive feelings come from. Often, we let emotions take over our hearts before understanding them. Today, we will try to approach the topic rationally, and we invite you to join the discussion!
Let’s start with the negative aspects because it is through them, or thanks to them, that the thought arises, which is, after all, a philosophical thought. If we can all avoid arguing, we can only grow through such conversations.
The most frequently mentioned reason for reluctance towards a Christmas tree in a public place is attention to the feelings of others, i.e., respect for all beliefs. Because the Christmas tree is associated with a Christian holiday, people wonder, or believe, that all such and other symbols (like crosses or Christmas trees) should not appear in public spaces because they may offend the feelings of people of different faiths or even non-believers.
Another reason is religious diversity. By creating such decorations in public spaces, some people of different faiths may feel discriminated against, overlooked, or even unnoticed due to the favoritism of one religion by city authorities. Therefore, many countries strive to maintain ideological neutrality in public institutions.
A strong and persistent argument is also the concept of secularism, which involves the separation of state power from religious institutions. People simply do not want the Church to make any public decisions in cooperation with the State.
The last argument is political disputes: placing religious symbols in public places can be a source of political disputes. These actions can be interpreted as an attempt to impose a specific faith or introduce religious norms into the public sphere, which can cause controversy.
It is worth noting that the approach to this topic may vary depending on the country, region, or society. In some places, there is acceptance of placing Christian symbols in public places, while in others, it is more controversial. In other places, symbols are placed based on the people living there—meaning symbols of different religions, aiming to enjoy each one. However, atheists often feel left out, so it is not necessarily a “golden mean.” Discussions on this topic often concern the balance between freedom of religion and ensuring neutrality and equality in the public sphere.
Now let’s move on to the positive aspects of the Christmas tree, which often seem obvious. The first that comes to mind is a beautiful decoration. It is an ornament that shines, is colorful, and brings joy to both children and adults. In many cities (especially American ones), people gather for the communal lighting of Christmas trees. Indeed, these are usually huge, majestic trees, so the process of connecting thousands of lights is breathtaking. People celebrate together, creating a sense of community – everyone wants to feel like they belong, so during this period, they don’t want it taken away.
Another point is, of course, tradition and cultural heritage. We know how important traditions are in people’s culture, and we also know what happens when people forget their traditions, mass abandoning their history and roots. People celebrating around the Christmas tree do not feel well about it. Moreover, not without reason, it was one of the typical methods of taking power during wars. Cutting people off from their roots, changing history in textbooks, cutting them off from religion and traditions, killing priests and educated people. Why? Because it was easy to take control then. It is a sad truth, but unfortunately, our (Polish) history carries such memories. Many of us still have grandparents who vividly remember the wartime and post-war periods. We strongly encourage visiting/ calling them and asking about those times because at some point, it will be too late, and it’s often worth listening to these sad stories, if not for us, then for them. People argue that these symbols have deep roots in the country’s history and reflect the cultural foundations of society, which should not be forgotten for us to be strong and know who we are. This is an important element because thanks to it, we can honor the memory of those who fought for us to be able to put up the tree, those who fought for our freedom.
Another positive thought is religious values and ethos: believers believe that the presence of Christian or generally religious symbols in public places reflects and emphasizes the values on which their religion is based. They see in it not only an expression of their own beliefs but also a positive impact on society – because every religion seeks to be characterized by family and love, often also caring for the weaker and the ability to share. These are universal values, with which we should all live (with which everyone probably agrees), and which are often overlooked in today’s times, making the nation more lonely. For some, this is a chance to return to these moral and ethical values that have been forgotten in the rush of everyday life.
For others, the argument is historical significance. Some people may argue that Christian symbols in our country (Poland) have historical significance that goes beyond the religious aspect. They believe that these symbols are an integral part of the country’s history and have a significant impact on shaping national identity. This is, of course, very close to tradition and cultural heritage, although not entirely the same. Often, a mistakenly interpreted argument in political disputes, which ultimately aims to motivate remembering complex and multidimensional elements of national identity, such as language, history, culture, values, territory, and symbols. Religion had an influence on all these elements, and I would gladly describe how, but maybe not now 😉. If you’re interested, comment below, maybe I’ll make an objective material on it!
The last point is social stability – some supporters of Christian symbols in public places may believe that these symbols contribute to social stability by providing a common reference point for society. Especially since it is difficult to make everyone always feel noticed, it is worth choosing one path characterized by at least a generally common trend for most people in the country, which positively influences mental strength. After all, we know that we feel safer when we know that there is a society around us with which we are united.
As you can see, there are numerous arguments for and against a Christmas tree in a public space, and each of them is important. Perhaps that’s why this debate continues, as it’s a situation where satisfying everyone’s needs is challenging. We don’t necessarily want to take sides here; rather, we aim to present each perspective and potentially open a discussion on this topic.
We wonder about the holidays that can be celebrated during the winter season, and it turns out there are several. For example, in Judaism, Hanukkah is observed, and in Islam, Muslims celebrate Id al-Maulid, a holiday commemorating the birth of Prophet Muhammad. In Hinduism, winter festivals include Diwali, the festival of lights.
It’s essential to note that Christmas has also become a widespread cultural and social holiday, celebrated by people of various faiths and cultures worldwide, often regardless of their religious beliefs. Therefore, some customs and traditions associated with Christmas may be embraced by individuals who are not followers of Christianity.
Conversations on this topic often become aggressive, and participants feel attacked, usually stemming from a lack of understanding and space to express their opinions. We often find ourselves feeling attacked as well. We would like to hear your opinion on this matter. Do you like the Christmas tree in the city center, or do you believe it shouldn’t be there? Perhaps you’d like a blend of various aspects of celebrating holidays in different cultures and religions? Share your thoughts!
Hanging floral decorations – for cities with less space to arrange
In cities with little space to arrange, creating friendly and aesthetically pleasing public areas is a significant challenge. For urban planners and architects, it is a particularly difficult task if one wants to achieve harmony between functionality and economy, as well as preserving the character of a given city. The solution that is gaining popularity and attracting attention with its originality are hanging floral decorations. The hanging Flower Towers can become not only a charming element, but also a practical tool for the development of urban spaces.
Also, they have great potential in transforming the image and atmosphere of cities, especially those with limited space, where traditional methods of arranging greenery are often limited.
Benefits of using hanging floral decorations in cities with smaller areas
The use of hanging floral decorations in cities with smaller areas brings many benefits, both for the residents and the whole city. These charming decorations are an innovative solution for urban planners and architects, who are trying to add character and beauty to public spaces, which have limited development options.
What are the key benefits of hanging floral decorations in urban space?
Revitalizing gray urban space — one of the key benefits associated with hanging flower decorations in city centers. Gray and monotonous urban spaces, consisting of concrete buildings, sidewalks and roads, can seem cold and impersonal. By adding colorful, vibrant flowers here, you can entirely change the atmosphere of the city, giving it a more pleasant feel. It’s also a great way to express opposition to the concreting of entire city centers.
Improving the health and well-being of residents and visitors — bringing plants into city centers can have a wonderful effect on the health of residents. Urban greenery, such as hanging floral decorations, plants in pots, and flower meadows, for example, have a positive impact on the physical and mental health of residents, helping to improve the quality of life in the city. Communing with nature has a scientifically proven relaxing and stress-reducing effect. Urban greenery and the presence of plants in the city center allow residents to take a break from the urban hustle and bustle and calm down for a while. Walking among floral decorations or spending time in parks can help reduce levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, and bring relief during difficult times.
Social integration and creating friendly corners — plants and floral decorations give city centers a nice and relaxing atmosphere. Urban greenery is conducive to creating pleasant spots that encourage spending time outdoors and meeting friends or family. Such places become natural meeting points where residents can spend time together, talk and integrate. In addition, they often provide an ideal backdrop for various social and cultural activities.
Ecological value of decorations for local biodiversity — the hanging Flower Towers act as a bridge between the urban environment and the natural ecosystem. They bring nature to the city, providing a place for local insects, birds and small mammals, which find shelter and food among these plants. Besides, hanging floral decorations bring variety to the urban landscape, attracting different species of insects and birds. This in turn creates an ecologically sustainable space where urban flora and fauna coexist and support each other. Importantly, the presence of floral elements encourages pollinating insects such as bees and butterflies to visit the city. These little creatures play an extremely important role in the pollination of plants, including those species that are grown in gardens and on balconies. By supporting their presence, the city contributes to pollination and the development of vegetation.
Practical aspects of bringing hanging floral decorations in cities with small areas
The introduction of hanging floral decorations in cities with smaller areas involves a number of practical aspects that need to be taken into account when planning and implementing such an initiative. Cities with limited space for development require creative solutions to maintain harmony between aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability. What is worth paying attention to?
Choosing the right plant species
Choosing the right plant species is a key element in launching hanging floral decorations into cities with smaller areas. Properly selected plants are not only an added value to the aesthetics of the urban space, but also they have a significant impact on the success of the entire initiative. When selecting species, a number of factors should be taken into account, such as the climatic and soil conditions of the location, exposure to sun or shade, as well as resistance to pollution and changing urban conditions. Optimal plant selection allows you to create durable and beautiful compositions that please the eye of residents and visitors, while minimizing maintenance costs and ensuring long-lasting flowering. By selecting local and native plant species, the city can also support biodiversity and conservation, creating a sustainable urban space that is consistent with the character of a given location.
Care and maintenance of flowers for longer
Care and maintenance of floral decorations for longer are key elements contributing to the success of the Flower Towers in cities with a smaller area. Here are some key steps that will help your flowers last longer:
Regular watering: Adequate moisture is essential to keep your plants healthy and beautiful. Regular watering of flower decorations should be provided, especially during periods of drought and high temperatures. It is good to monitor the humidity of the substrate and adjust the frequency of watering to the current weather conditions, as well as the needs of the plants.
Selecting the right substrate: A well-chosen substrate is essential for healthy plant growth. In the case of hanging floral decorations, it is worth using a light and well-draining substrate that allows you to avoid excessive flooding of the roots. The addition of nutrients to the substrate, such as compost or fertilizers, will support the plants in their development.
Proper fertilization: A regular supply of nutrients is essential for healthy plant growth and long-lasting flowering. Use the right fertilizers, tailored to the plant species, according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Avoid over-application of fertilizers, preventing excessive plant growth and stunted flowering.
Pruning and care: Proper pruning will control the shape of the plants, remove withered flowers and increase branching, which in turn can affect the abundance of flowering. Regular removal of withered plant parts also helps to maintain their aesthetic appearance.
Protection against pests and diseases: Monitoring plants and intervening early if pests appear are among the most important issues if you want your plants to look beautiful.

XXL Easter eggs in Kozienice, i.e. creative urban activities
Although Easter time has just passed, in some places we can still admire amazing Easter decorations. It turns out that more and more local communities are becoming very creative when it comes to decorating their urban spaces. This season, the Kozienice Municipality also took on such a challenge, and we have to admit that the result is simply stunning!
XXL fiberglass eggs as a canvas for local artists
As we mentioned in the previous article, residents have many possibilities when it comes to painting XXL Easter eggs. In some towns the eggs were decorated by kindergarten children, in others by local professional artists. It was no different in Kozienice — the local community joined forces and prepared the urban space for the coming Easter.
XXL Easter eggs in the Kozienice Municipality were made by younger and older residents, including local artists.
Decorating Easter eggs was a social act and art materials were donated by the Mayor of Kozienice — Piotr Kozłowski.
We love this creative approach to decorating urban space—it serves all residents, and such actions certainly support establishing closer relations among neighbors. Beautifully painted eggs in the Kozienice Municipality delight everyone, which is why we strongly encourage you to visit the town and maybe even… join the action next year?
Thank you very much for the photos and congratulations to all the artists!
Nobody needs to be convinced about the importance of natural decorations in our cities. Fortunately, the trend of ‘concreting’ city centers has been diminishing, however, this is not always a fast process. Large flower pots are perfect for places that still need colors. Effect? Immediate!
Colorful plant containers have already become standard items on the public space decoration list. They appear wherever, for various reasons, it is impossible to plant flowers and bushes in the ground: sometimes practical issues decide and the need to have an extensive square for various events, sometimes a complicated underground sewage network or the presence of underground parking lots. Traditional gardening is significantly more difficult.
In return, European cities received an alternative – XXL flower containers, not only colorful and capacious, but also … mobile. They work well where urban outdoor events take place, as they can be easily moved – all you need is an ordinary, lightweight pallet truck. It is a good and economical solution for places with a complicated underground infrastructure network – the presence of flower pots, unlike traditional plantings, does not require pavement damage and burdensome, expensive construction works.

Large city planters decorate many Eorupean cities. Also, you can easily find them in Germany, for example, in Höchenschwand and Torgau cities. The authorities of Torgau took a step further and, in addition to classic plant containers, chose innovative models: a flower pot with a table function and a model with a seat. In both cases, the results of the makeover were immediate – the cities gained natural decorations, in seemingly unfavorable conditions for traditional planting.

a closed oval form or a semi-open form. It invites you to look inside and see its content – and the possibilities are numerous, moreover, they do not have to end with plants. It’s a great idea for displaying seasonal gadgets, especially in case of shopping centers. This type of Easter decorations can be admired in many European corners – from Germany, through the Czech Republic, to Polish towns.

A winter transformation of a flower tower
For many people, Christmas doesn’t exist without a Christmas tree, also in public spaces. What to do though if the square in front of the town hall lacks trees, and bringing to it any live specimen is neither economical nor ecological solution? Contrary to what one might expect, Christmas does not have to go without decorations!
Christmas covers for the Flower Towers are a solution, which makes it possible to deal with standing or hanging Flower Towers in winter and protect them against snow, rain or wind. They are specially developed covers, in a shape of a Christmas tree cone or a ball ( for street lamps ), and thanks to them, spring and summer decorations do not have to be removed after the season, therefore, expenses for their storage can be eliminated.
source: www.terra-flower-tower.com
The Christmas covers for the standing and hanging Flower Towers go in a few sizes, therefore, they can be adjusted to already existing decorations, which will become additional ballast for them. Weather in winter eliminates low-quality solutions from urban spaces. The solid construction of the Christmas trees from the TerraChristmas collection resists severe weather conditions as they are firmly fixed to the ground.

The city Christmas trees are made of plastic imitating spruce, with which a light steel frame was wrapped. Thanks to the powder coating, the inside construction is resistant to the low temperatures and humidity – such a solid and reliable materials guarantee an excellent condition for many seasons.

In winter and in summer – openwork decorations stay classy the whole year!
Associated with the Christmas magic, openwork decorations bring to mind some cosy atmosphere and… they are perfect as flower containers at other times of the year. It is hard to find more comprehensive solution for cities – here are openwork decorations in a version you do not know!
In Koziegłowy (Poland), the focus was on flexibility. But this is not just any solution – no, no, nothing could be further from the truth! Currently, openwork decorations in the shape of a ball decorate the city, emphasizing the charms of the summer season. Inside the hemispheres that make up the whole, surfinia and pelargonium have been planted. The lower element of the decoration was used as an original city planter. This is how the most beautiful ornament in the area was created – an airy, slightly open ball, which is bubbling with the colors of plants.
Nothing prevents it from staying in the same place in autumn and even in winter. The skilled hands of a city gardener are enough to turn a typical summer composition into a composition inspired by the end of the year. The already proven solution is planting the most famous autumn flowers, such as, chrysanthemums or heathers inside of the hemishpere. And in winter? In winter, twigs of evergreen plants can appear in the decoration. It is worthwhile to diversify the prepared composition with colorful chains, baubles and string lights … and then spring comes, and thus: the first plantings with pansies or daisies.
Fiber glass, from which the ball is made, is so durable that it will resist frost, snow or rain. It is also robust to strong sunlight, so the openwork decoration can be exposed outside all year round. This is a good way to save money when using one solid base that changes with every season.
It is a wonderful place. Not only does it have 2 main squares but also it is one of the most populous locality in Slovakia. Moreover, it also has the longest pedestrian zone in the whole country. This is Žilina – a Slovakian city which has just gained its next advantage – beautiful flower towers in the heart of the city centre.
Žilina is very popular among the Polish tourists – situated only 77 kilometres from Cieszyn, it has a very convenient rail connection which in addition encourages people to visit this charming place even more. It may be a fantastic idea for a weekend and believe us – there is a lot to see!
On the longest pedestrian zone in Slovakia, there are two bustling squares with picturesque tenement buildings and a fountain. You will find there also a lot of restaurants with local rarities and some idyllic space to relax. In the lovely centuries-old place, you cannot miss the floral decoration which introduces and emphasizes the charming colours of the squares.
The flower towers are situated in the most representative part of the city – nearby the stairs which connect those two already mentioned squares. The main market called Mariánske námestie is also full of floral compositions in various colour shades. Those 2 meter high half models of Flower Towers can be seen also close to the town hall – the special models of the products can be easily situated along walls without any space loss.
We strongly recommend visiting Žilina as it may be an interesting place for people who appreciate historic architecture, tranquillity, positive energy as well as beautiful floral decorations.
