All too often we think that a wildlife garden needs to be a mass of unkempt grass and nettles, but the good news is that the birds and bees don’t mind how the garden is laid out just as long as there is a good food source and some shelter for nesting and safety. This means that your garden can be carefully designed to be equally attractive for you and wildlife. Even a pile of logs can be arranged artistically or even make a sculptural statement within the design!<br/><br/>Selina Botham designed a show garden at Shalford park in Guildford for Surrey Wildlife Trust for the BBC Breathing Spaces Wild Day out.
