My garden below is a perfect working
example of what can be achieved in a medium sized suburban garden as far
as having both a functional garden which attracts wildlife as well as being
a well planned aesthetically pleasing garden that fulfils the basic principles
of good landscape design. Here I have put into practice my belief that nature
conservation starts at your own front door, you can do something yourself
to benefit nature. I have produced a pleasing well managed garden that
may lead others to also convert their own sterile, dysfunctional, unattractive
gardens into places of beauty and tranquility.
My garden which is planted exclusively
to native plants many of them rare or unusual. it is a haven to birds,
insects in particular butterflies, reptiles, frogs, fruit bats, large
spotted genets and monkeys pay regular visits.
My garden in which I have planted every
tree and plant is an outstanding working example of what you can also
do to create a pleasing, interesting, tranquil, well planned garden that
can also bring an amazing amount of wildlife back into the city.
