Wildlife gardening
A garden is not just for humans - but also birds, insects, small mammals and creatures too tiny to see. Creating a wildlife garden means you can have fun learning; it really helps balance your local environment by providing attractive habitats for humans that are also beneficial for critters - Work with nature, not against it... that is why we use organic gardening principles.
See wildlife gardening with children for info, advice and tips to help kids learn more on how to grow a wildlife friendly garden.
Grow vegetables
Nothing beats vegetables or herbs that you've grown yourself... but it doesn't need to take lots of time or effort. Encourage pollinating insects as you discover the wonderful taste of home grown food.
See our new project growing vegetables at home.
Gardening software
We are currently featuring garden products suiting gardening beginners, horticultural students, keen home gardeners and horticulturalists, to business class garden design software aimed at the professional design market. Nothing beats actually working in your garden, but sometimes different tools can help.
