Nature Garden: Beginner's guide to designing a wildlife garden (Collins Joe Swift Gardening Books)

by Joe Swift, Collins Books

Overview

Expert gardening tips to support and protect the natural world.

There are around 16 million UK gardens which, cover a larger area than all our nature reserves. You could say our largest nature reserve is one big garden! In this practical guide, Joe Swift shows you how to support and protect our rich and varied wildlife habitats.

Joe’s no-nonsense approach covers everything you need to know about doing your bit for wildlife. Learn how to manage soil and carefully select plants to create rich and varied habitats, from tall trees down to tiny, spring-flowering bulbs.

In this book, Joe demonstrates how to manage your outdoor space sensitively, and debunks the common misconception that ‘wildlife-friendly gardens’ have to be unkempt.

From bug hotels to pollinators, he also shares his ideas on fun and innovative projects to help kids, as the future custodians of our planet, engage with nature.
