<p>They have something similar in Berlin, around street trees
basically, so it's not along the facade, but a similar size and
initiative. Maybe a tag that includes "urban"? Or is it rather a
flower bed than a garden?<br>

<div>Hi,</div>

<div>We started mapping "facade gardens" in Belgium. The tag
we've started to use is <tt dir="ltr"

<div>Facade gardens are miniature gardens in urban areas. How to
recognize them: <br>
</div>
<div>- perched against a private facade <br>
</div>
<div>- replaces existing pavement, usually a hole in the
sidewalk <br>
</div>
<div>- very small, usually just a meter or so along the facade,
and about 30 cm deep <br>
</div>
<div>- not operated by the government, but rather a private
initiative (this is usually recognizable by the very "personal
style" of the little garden)
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
While tiny, local governments encourage the creation of these
gardens for their perceived positive effect on neighborhood
livability, air quality and heat island effect. It is unclear
to me if this concept is known in other countries than Belgium
and Holland, so it is unknown if facade_garden is the best
possible term to use here.

<div><br>
</div>
<div>The tagging proposal also introduces some extra tags to add
extra information about the garden.</div>
