Biological diversity
Do you want to transform your garden into a natural paradise? We will show you why the diversity of plants and habitats is of vital importance and how you can provide a more diverse space for all species living in your garden - even in the smallest spaces. To ensure that your garden can become an inviting place for all, it is worthwile to draw up a plan before you reach for your shovel. That's where we come in! We will help you transform your garden into an inviting and biologically diverse space.
It is important that you offer your insects a variety of plants that are in bloom at different times of the year, so that the insects always have at least one source of nourishment. You should offer plants that bloom in spring as well as in late-autumn to meet the different demands of insects. Avoid invasive species of plants and offer a range of native wild plants and berries to cater to a broad variety of insects.
Make sure there are plenty of places for animals to rest or hide in your garden. A variety of different structures are suitable, such as wild hedges, dead wood, leftover plant stalks or open sandy areas where nothing is deliberately grown. Insects such as wild bees are particularly grateful for this since most of them dig their nests and burrows in the ground themselves. For this, they require open and sunny areas of soil.
The diversity of animals depends heavily on the diversity of habitats that is offered. From barren, wet, sandy, sunny or in the shadow, different animals profit from different spaces. Various hiding places such as piles of branches and leaves, dry stone, walls or pools provide a home for different insects. Facades, roofs and walls can be specifically planned to give those insects a home.
Close-to-nature areas in urban spaces are by no means pure wilderness. They are designed by experts to keep the biological diversity high. When it comes to maintenance and care, less is often more. Unkempt areas foster diversity and deserve their place, even in urban spaces.
Creating a natural garden does not mean that you can no longer use your outdoor spaces! On the contrary, the vital spaces for nature can often be combined with your personal needs beautifully. One area serve as both a garden-seating area as well as an insect pasture. An artfully layered pile of stones or branches can serve as an art object. The bathing pond is simultaneously a hotspot for dragonflies.
Biological diversity
Biological diversity includes animals, plants, fungi, microorganisms, ecosystems - and us, humans. Biodiversity is life on earth in all its variety and interactions. This diversity has evolved over billions of years: it is the result of evolution and forms the basis and potential for all life processes and ecosystem services on our planet, now and in the future.
Biodiversity can be described at three levels: genetic diversity, species diversity and habitat diversity. The three levels of biodiversity are closely and dynamically linked. Species need suitable habitats to survive. Within species, sufficient genetic variability is essential. The diversity of interrelationships within and between the three levels is also known as functional biodiversity.
