Naturnahe Dachbegrünung (3895663034)

Platz ist auf der kleinsten Hütte: Dächer von Garage, Carport oder Gartenhäuschen können 'Inseln' für Pflanzengesellschaften sein, die in der Natur immer seltener werden. Wenn es dort grünt und blüht, stellen sich nach und nach Schmetterlinge, Wildbienen und Singvögel ein. Noch lebhafter geht es zu, wenn zusätzliche Nisthilfen angeboten werden.

Das Buch stellt Begrünungsbeispiele für kleine Dächer vor, die auch der handwerklich geschickte Laie selbst ausführen kann. Besonders einfach nachzubauen sind begrünte Dächer für Mülltonnenboxen oder das Insektenhotel - für alle, die klein beginnen oder mit Kindern bauen möchten. Schritt für Schritt beschreiben die Autoren die Arbeitsabläufe für kleine und große, flache und steile Dächer. Materialempfehlungen, Pflanzenlisten und Pflegetipps der Gartenexperten sorgen dafür, dass es auf dem Dach bald kreucht und fleucht.
