How to maintain your garden?

A well-tended garden is an important part of feeling at home.

That's why we ask ourselves how to maintain our garden.

Regular maintenance is therefore essential.

Carefully plan your plant selection and garden layout 🌱

Before embarking on any maintenance, think carefully about the layout of your garden, taking into account the different zones and spaces for plants, flowers, trees and paths.

Choose plants adapted to your region's climate and soil for easy maintenance.

 

Choose low-maintenance shrubs such as arbutus, privet and laurel.

Prepare your garden soil 🌿

Healthy soil is the foundation of any garden.

Weed regularly to eliminate weeds that can choke your plants.

Enrichissez le sol avec du compost ou des engrais naturels pour favoriser la croissance des végétaux.

 

Well-prepared soil holds water and nutrients better, which is essential for healthy plants.

Water wisely during drought 💧

Watering can be crucial for a garden. However, many regions are affected by a severe drought, which has led to numerous water restrictions that must be respected.

Prune regularly ✂️

Prune dead or diseased branches to stimulate regrowth.

Also remove spent flowers to encourage the production of new ones.

The crucial issue of water tables this summer

The crucial issue of groundwater is one that must be taken into account for a more certain future.

These water tables play a crucial role in the supply of drinking water.

However, these underground freshwater reserves are currently facing major challenges, not least due to recurrent droughts throughout France.

Now that summer has arrived, the issue of groundwater is becoming vital to guarantee the availability of a resource that is essential to our daily lives.




At present, many water tables in France are at very low levels. 

In addition, prolonged dry spells and climate change are contributing to this worrying situation. 

Find out more about Drought in France.

Most French regions have below-normal soils for this time of year.

It is possible to observe a reduction in the quantity of water available for different uses, leading to water restrictions and shortages.

Lower groundwater levels can lead to lower river flows, poorer water quality and a threat to the biodiversity that depends on it. 

Fragile ecosystems, such as wetlands, are particularly vulnerable to falling water tables.

Faced with the challenges facing groundwater, conservation measures are essential. We need to reduce excessive withdrawals and encourage more sustainable practices.
