Forest corner (Perfect Gardener competition 2022-2023)

Table of contents

In the sunny part of the garden there is a rockery, an ecological herb and vegetable garden, and fruit bushes. Instead of a lawn, there is a flower meadow and a mini vineyard with a dozen of grapevines established this year, we hope that in some time we will make our own wine.We save water, collect rainwater and water only those plants that require it.
In our garden, we do not use chemical plant protection products, only natural ones made of herbs, garlic and onions, and nettle as a fertilizer. There are several age-old fruit trees on the plot: apple trees, plum trees and gooseberry bushes, which were planted by my late Grandma. There is a small apiary under the over 100-year-old linden tree (my husband's hobby). We try to plant and sow honey-bearing flowers, which are used not only by our bees but also by other pollinators. I grew most of the flowers in the garden from cuttings, seeds or I got them from my family and friends. Our garden is a passion of our whole family. We like to spend time surrounded by green plants, fragrant flowers, listening to bees, crickets and birds singing.
