Gardening for the Great Dixter Biodiversity Study
In 2019, the Great Dixter garden, a renowned English garden, embarked on a biodiversity study. The study aimed to assess the impact of gardening on local wildlife and the environment. The research team, led by Chris Blyth, a renowned horticulturist, conducted a thorough analysis of the garden’s ecosystem. The study revealed that the garden was home to a diverse range of wildlife, including birds, bees, and butterflies. Key findings of the study: + The garden’s biodiversity was higher than expected, with over 100 species of plants and animals recorded. + The garden’s design and layout played a crucial role in supporting local wildlife. + The study highlighted the importance of creating wildlife-friendly habitats in gardens.
