Limits are sometimes fluid. A layperson sometimes loses an overview. Gravel bed, stone bed, gravel bed sounds in principle the same and bleak dead. However, you can have clear differences if you take a closer look. When Uwe Schachschal made his rounds through the Egapark Erfurt in spring, the experienced master gardener stops on many beds. Every spring has its charm. Every course is a journey of discovery because everything awakens. “I can rely on many plants that are reliably waiting for the first rays of the sun and mild temperatures and then flower,” he says. Bergenia, daffodils, blue stars, tulips rarely disappoint him. A special bed develops from March to the true ornament: the Alpine Steingarten.
