Easy ways to make your garden a haven of biodiversity

Perfect pond
A pond will lure birds and small animals, insects and amphibians. Build it in partial shade, with the edges at ground level to allow easy access for animals. The sides need to be shallow and slope very gently to prevent animals, such as frogs and hedgehogs, from drowning. Keep your pond healthy with a mix of submerged oxygenator plants - choose native aquatic pond plants such as water mint.
