peer agreement (net): +1garden bed Explanation: You could even say "raised garden bed" since it does say there in your text "placa vegetada elevada". See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_bed http://www.google.com/search?q=garden bed&hl=en&biw=1280&bih... Also according to your text, this placa vegetada sound like a "canteiro" like you have on major streets, separating the opposite lanes of traffic: "tem como primeira função separar os fluxos de pedestres do se veículos e serviços na área do parque" so this garden bed should fit the bill. |
