- Synopsis:
Attracting and supporting wildlife in our gardens is one of the most popular topics in horticulture today. Pressures on a whole range of our natural wildlife has led to many species becoming threatened and even endangered. It is critical therefore that we do what we can to help both encourage and sustain animals, birds, insects, reptiles and amphibians in our gardens. This video covers a wide range of practical advice together with simple hints and tips about growing wildlife friendly plants, where to site nest boxes, hedgehog hibernators and bat and bee boxes. It offers ideas on how to look after the wildlife that is already in your garden and what can be done to improve the breadth and range of wildlife species. The video visits a range of gardens which have already adopted wildlife initiatives including Sticky Wicket in Dorset which is totally devoted to wildlife. It doesn't matter whether you have a small town garden or a large country estate it is equally important to do what you can to ensure that our unique natural wildlife is present and thriving for future generations to observe and enjoy.
