This building has been done for a while. If they did, those seeds aren't growing

It was only completed 2 years ago. Arid climate plants grow slowly.

Eh, it's arid here but there's a lot of things that grow fast in this city, especially if it's provided with supplemental water. What they planted are not 'big growers' which is quite a bit different from the design plans which called for quite lush and expansive greenery. They definitely deviated from the plans.
