Garden Guide Weed Hanging Basket

Many people want to give nature more space in their garden, but fear that it will literally grow over their heads. At the same time, interest in self-sufficiency is growing - a trend that also affects the use of wild herbs. And where could these herbs be harvested more easily and cleanly than in one's own garden? But what is a weed and needs to be removed; what is a wild herb and allowed to grow? With the simple yet effective wild herb traffic light system, this book makes it easier than ever: It shows at a glance which wild herbs can be tolerated or even encouraged in the garden, for example because they are useful for insects or for use in the kitchen. Other species, on the other hand, should be radically removed, as they would otherwise cause problems. In this book, Jutta Over presents 40 of the most common wild plant species that spontaneously settle in gardens, classifies them into the innovative traffic light system, and provides practical tips and information on ingredients, uses, benefits for wildlife, and soil indicator values. This way, even gardening novices can ensure the greatest possible diversity in the limited space of their garden and at the same time benefit from it.
