The escalating climate imbalance, coupled with rising water demands in rapidly expanding urban areas, is forcing scientists and policymakers to seek alternative strategies for efficient water resource management. Nature Based Solutions (NBS) are gaining prominence due to their ability to provide multiple ecosystem services. However, the quantification of benefits and drawbacks mediated by different vegetation species remains inadequate. In this study, we investigated the performance of a pot-based vertical greening system (VGS) designed to integrate the functions of green facades with those of treatment wetlands. The VGS was vegetated with Mentha aquatica L. (hereafter Mentha), Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC. (hereafter Oenanthe) and Lysimachia nummularia L. (hereafter Lysimachia), and their respective effects on water balance and mass removal of common greywater pollutants were compared. Results indicated that VGS lines vegetated with Oenanthe and Mentha exhibited comparable pollutant removals. Oenanthe showed a preference for greywater that had already undergone partial treatment, while Mentha was not affected by any pollutant load in water removal -48.1 % of total inflow- and in nutrients uptake in aboveground biomass -14.3 % N and 7 % P- due to sustained and robust growth, outperforming Oenanthe and Lysimachia. This has suggested the potential use of Oenathe in combination with Mentha for enhanced performances, particularly given Oenanthe's rapid growth in the early season and high biomass and nitrogen content following initial greywater treatment.
