Vegetation Areas - Naturalized (Boundaries Map)

This map represents the spatial areas in Edmonton where naturalization has been used as a landscape management approach.

Naturalization is an ecologically-based approach to landscape management used to transform highly-maintained land to a more natural condition.

Naturalized areas in Edmonton are either constructed (for example, storm water management ponds or bioswales) or converted (formerly mowed turf transformed to a naturalized area).

These converted areas may remain naturalized grass or be planted with trees and shrubs. Citizens can volunteer to plant in these areas through the Root for Trees program.
