Summary

Nature-based solutions (NBS), exemplified by external green walls, play a crucial role in bolstering the sustainability of cities by mitigating heat islands and moderating temperatures. Nevertheless, owing to the lavish consumption of urban water in green walls, the adoption of recycled water for irrigation within these infrastructures emerges as a widely employed strategy. We conducted an investigation on the accumulator ornamental species Aptenia cordifolia and Carpobrotus edulis , exploring the effects of treatments involving recycled water and the application of PGPR. This research consisted of two separate experiments, each focused on a different plant species. The experiments were structured as split-plot layout based on a randomized complete block design with three replications from
