Shade terrace

A hidden path leads through a yew and boxwood forest. In high summer you can always find a cool spot here.

Native and foreign ferns, some the size of tree ferns, feel at home. Worth mentioning is the Nagelfluh wall, in the crevices of which yellow whitlow-grass (Draba aizoides), Rosy Cress (Arabis collina) and hare's ear hawkweed (Hieracium bupleuroides) cling.

Christa Gerber (gardener): "I'm always amazed at how great plants can be at adapting to new places away from home."
