*If the system is unlined it is hydraulically equivalent to a [[bioretention]] cell and provides similar water quality benefits.   
*If the systems is lined, it is hydraulically similar to a large [[stormwater planter]]. Depending on the design detail it may retain significant stormwater within the planting volume soil and will provide water quality benefits.
