Bravo! You've got me excited enough to get a project started. Love this content.
Brilliant little video, we will definitely be doing some of this in our garden. Rreally excellent explanation and presentations. Thank you!
I love the hibernaculum idea. I have been piling rocks up into little clusters as I try and get rid of them from my soil. I'm going to try and build a hibernaculum out of them!
Some great tips for helping wildlife in our gardens. I love the log walls particularly as they are also beautiful to look at. Thanks 👍 😊
Fantastic information. Thank you. Love particularly the log wall
lovely easy and fun ideas
Brilliant ❤
Great video. Never heard of a “dead hedge” before, interesting idea. I visited the Arboretum last year in winter and thought it was superb, would recommend!
Excellent informative video, you have certainly gave me some idea's for my wild flower border at the allotments. Thank you. 😊
Thank you Terry, we're glad it was helpful.
I've been searching far and wide for practical, sustainable ideas for providing shelter to wildlife. Finally I've found good information! Most other videos just explain *that* you need shelter, but this actually explains *how* to provide shelter. Thank you!
I keep hearing conflicting advice about whether to build a log pile near growing plants, I only have a small garden & want to create a log pile in the corner of the garden but there's a growing viburnum tinus spirit nearby, will it be ok to have a log pile near living plants?
Perfectly fine. In nature dead wood is commonly found under trees and shrubs.
If the logs are of healthy wood, they should be fine. The things to look out for are Honey Fungus and Coral Spot (the latter occurs on brushwood rather than logs).
Sounds wonderful, unless you have fire ants!
