Flanders adept and newbie

Post: # 211989Post Gaardenier »

Dear Friends,
Since about 5 years cultivating a private fruitjungle on a rented railroad edge. Started with exotic fruits to try out hardiness and biotopic possibilities.
By exotics I count also Lingonberries, Kei apple, Canadian grapes, Beach plum, Khaki fruit, Pecan nuts, Silverberries, aso.

More recently I added solitary bee interest. Trying to create a fundamental healthy housing system, to improve their multiplication.

Also busy with all kind of ecological use of energy and natural resources as rainwater.

This site and forum seems super to me.

Best greetings,

aha, that's normal because none of these plants grow in mud! Google knows them all.

Welcome to Ish,this site is a wonderfull source of inspiration indeed.

I've heard of those Lingonberries,a certains swedish furniture store serves them as a sauce with their meatballs,right?
