Abstract: Concarpus plants, as highly adaptable and resilient in cities, have received interest for their ability to make urban ecosystems stronger, increase biodiversity, and provide sustainable resource utilization. This research thoroughly analyses the environmental advantages and limitations of Concarpus plants, with particular emphasis on how they can help in urban ecosystems. We discuss their effects on air and water quality, soil condition, and carbon sequestration, highlighting their potential to mitigate the urban heat island effect and enhance overall ecosystem function. Recent research emphasizes both the beneficial role of Concarpus plants in maintaining biodiversity and the dangers of their invasive properties in some areas. Based on a critical analysis of case studies and methods employed in evaluating these plants' ecological impact, we introduce an integrated view of their contribution to urban greening. The paper further explains how Concarpus plants can be useful in resource management, especially water conservation and preventing soil erosion. Challenges such as competition with native species and their ability to disturb indigenous ecosystems are also taken into account. The research concludes by suggesting recommendations for the sustainable incorporation of Concarpus plants into urban planning, emphasizing the necessity of adaptive management practices and additional research to strike a balance between their benefits and risks in rapidly changing urban environments..

Keywords: Concarpus plants, Urban ecosystems, Biodiversity, Resource management, Environmental sustainability, Ecological impact.
