These planters are the green gateway to London Bridge. They provide smart greenery at eye level for the 285,000 passengers that pass through London Bridge Station every day.

The iconic Lessing Feather Grass (stipa lessingiana) in these planters brings a drought-tolerant species more commonly found in the steppe grasslands from Greece to Mongolia here to London Bridge Station.

These are hard-wearing plants but as with any potted plant they need more water than our permanent parks – these planters are kept watered by our volunteer group ‘Hosepipe Heroes’ with water from the Shipwright’s pub!
