Answer

Why is Palma planting native species at Es Carnatge?

Native plants are better adapted to Mallorca’s dry summers, wind and salty coastal conditions. They usually need less water and can help reduce erosion while supporting birds and insects. In a place like Es Carnatge, that makes them a more practical choice than decorative planting that needs heavy maintenance.
