Help the pollinators in your garden and get a bigger harvest

Garden

Bees, hops, butterflies, beetles, and even flies pollinate almost everything we eat. Without them, we are in trouble - because unfortunately, almost all insects are decreasing significantly. But there is still time and opportunity to make a difference. Here we tell you how you can help pollinators in your own garden or on your balcony. A large part of our plants need extra help from pollinators, they are a crucial link in the ecosystems and provide us with both harvest and plants that can produce oxygen, bind carbon dioxide and ultimately break down into new soil.

Our most common pollinators

It is not only the "tame" bee that pollinates plants so they can reproduce and produce good harvests. Wild bees, butterflies, flies, and even beetles can also pollinate. Here are some of the invaluable gardeners we cannot do without., Have you ever stopped in a sea of flowers you know that it is teeming with insects, a bee buzzing by, a butterfly taking off from a newly blossomed poppy. Like feathers, insects move pollen grains from one flower to another so they can reproduce and develop fruit and berries. Every third bite of food we take is actually pollinated by insects. There are some plants that are pollinated by wind and water, but pollinators are always the key to a functioning garden.

Woodland - bring the forest into the garden

Do you dream of sitting on a bench in nature and enjoying the small birds and butterflies? Then you can design your own garden with inspiration from beautiful woodlands. Here, green shade plants will create an oasis of colorful flowers and mowing the lawn will be a distant memory.,Woodland is a type of garden where inspiration comes from the wild clearings in the forest. There are no grassy areas or bare soil, but rather paths that naturally form between trees, bushes, and herbaceous perennials that function as ground cover.,The soil is moisture-retentive, slightly acidic, and rich in humus, and the light oscillates between shade and semi-shade. The idea is that a woodland garden should appeal to all of our senses - smell, hearing, sight, and emotions, even taste.
