So, my garden. Small doesn't mean lifeless. On the contrary!
For I am quite stuck at home, due to some chronical diseases, my garden has my warm attention. As 99% of the people around me see a maintenance-free garden as much tiles and some small pots of screaming- coloured summer flowers, we see it as 'let nature do the thing'. We sow wildflower seeds ( of course eco seeds!) for the butterflies and bees, kitchen herbs for our own use, a small pond for frogs and birds to bath.
The droughts in 2022 and 2023 and the wet summer and a invasion of snails last year, many plants did not survive. Now we start all over again and make this 50 m² garden a little paradise again.

in reply to Wilhelmina58 • •Ja hier houden zich eveneens diverse soorten naaktslakken op, waaronder de grote aardslak (tijgerslak) die ook weer voor balans zorgt daar ie zich tegoed doet aan andere slakken. Verder maar zoeken naar planten waar slakken niet aangaan. Denk bijvoorbeeld aan planten met harig blad zoals achillea.
