Environmentally friendly Gardens

Here's a few tips to help the environment and encourage wildlife to your garden.

• Old logs in the shade can attract frogs and newts and as the wood rots a range of insects will follow.
• Hedges encourage a range of wildlife for food and shelter.
• Pollinating plants will encourage butterflies and bees.
• Ponds with varying depths and oxygenating plants make for good pond-life.
• Climbing plants can provide food for birds and other wildlife.
• Creating a compost heap can feed your garden.
• Collected rainwater can be used for watering plants.
