Registration

Switzerland, Upcoming

Trees, hedges and shrubs can enrich our urban gardens and spaces. They have many practical benefits and promote biodiversity, our own well-being and the urban climate.

But how can they best be integrated and what do you need to pay attention to?

The lecture and the guided excursion will provide practical tips on the selection of plant species, their placement and care as well as how to combine them with nature gardens.
