Garden Plants

A garden is a delimited area of land on which crops are planted or grown. A garden can be utilitarian in nature, a vegetable garden, scientific, a botanical garden, allotment garden or a decorative ornamental garden. Someone who creates and maintains a garden professionally is called a gardener or gardener. A landscaper can design the garden in a particular style, such as a Japanese garden, Chinese garden, English or French garden. Source: Wikipedia

Roses

Roses (genus Rosa) are flower plants belonging to the rose family (Rosaceae). The genus has about 300 species in the wild. In addition, there are many improved forms (cultivars). The botanically seen false fruit of the rose is called rosehip. Source: Wikipedia

Perenials

A hardy plant is one that is adapted in such a way that it is not damaged at temperatures below 0 ° C and thus survives a cold period. This survival does not necessarily apply to the plant as a whole, but after the winter a hardy plant will sprout normally again. Plants that do get damaged or freeze to pieces are called 'soft' or 'semi-hardy' plants. This difference is due to the physiology of the cells. In 'non-hardy' plants, ice crystals form in the cell at temperatures below 0 ° C.

Bamboo

Bamboo is the name for a number of plant species in a genus group (tribus) of the grasses (Gramineae, Poaceae). This tribus Bambuseae belongs to the supertribus Bambusodae and the subfamily Bambusoideae. Source: Wikipedia

Groundcovers

Ground cover in agriculture, horticulture and ornamental gardens is a protective layer applied to the soil, the main purpose of which is to compensate for the disadvantages of the local climate. In the first place, it concerns cover by vegetation, trees or the crop itself. Source: Wikipedia

Fruit trees

The cultivation of fruit trees is closely related to fruit growing. An area in the Netherlands where this is common is the region around Opheusden in the Betuwe. There is also a pronounced (fruit) tree cultivation area in and around Boskoop and in the Flevopolder. The cultivation method strongly depends on the type of fruit. Planting material can be obtained with a Naktuinbouw certificate, which guarantees the authenticity of the variety, external tree quality and health. Source: Wikipedia

Shrubberies

A shrub or shrub is a woody plant, which branches immediately above or already in the ground into a number of branches, which can become more or less thick. So no stem is formed. Shrubs do not grow as tall as many tree species. They occur naturally in the form of thickets of 1-5 meters high, especially along forest edges. Source: WIkipedia

Decorative Grasses

An ornamental grass is a grass-like plant that is used for its special decorative value. Examples of ornamental grass are various types of Miscanthus (beautiful reed), Cortaderia (pampas grass), Carex (sedge), Molinia (pipe straw), Festuca (fescue grass), Panicum (finger grass), Pennisetum (lamp cleaner grass) and Stipa (feather grass). Bamboo, which has been used in Japanese horticulture for centuries, also falls botanically under the grasses (Poaceae) and is therefore actually an ornamental grass. Source: Wikipedia

Ferns

Ferns are a group of vascular plants belonging to the Pteropsida or the Monilophyta depending on the classification. In addition to the 'true ferns', the name 'ferns' also includes the eusporangiate ferns (the 'fern-like', English: fern allies) - including the horsetail, the Psilotopsida with the adder-tongue family, and the Marattiopsida, but without the Lycophyta (dewclaws and rush ferns), which are a sister group of the ferns.

Rhododendrons

The rhododendrons are generally shrubs to small trees with scattered leaves. The leaves have a smooth edge and can be grouped at the end of the branch, creating a false wreath. The flowers are often in terminal, dense or loose umbels, but can also be single. The number of stamens is 5, 10 or 27. Source: Wikipedia

Herbs

Herbs generally come from temperate countries and consist mainly of leaves and stems of green plants, which can be used to enhance the aroma and flavor of dishes. Spices have the same function, but often come from countries with a subtropical or tropical climate and can consist of other plant parts such as flower buds, pods, bark or roots. Source: Wikipedia

Waterlilies

The water lily family (Nymphaeaceae) is a family of flowering plants. They are aquatic plants: the flowers and leaves float on the water, but the roots hold the plants in place. With about sixty species, this is a small family. The plants are found worldwide, outside the polar regions and the deserts. In Flanders and the Netherlands the yellow plump (Nuphar lutea) and the white water lily (Nymphaea alba) occur naturally. Source: Wikipedia

Floating and oxygen plants

Aquatic plants are very important in a pond. They are not only beautiful to look at, but also play an important role in the biological balance of the pond. During their growth, aquatic plants absorb nutrients from the pond water. This keeps the pond clear. This is especially true for the oxygenating plants. These plants grow completely under water.

Water and swamp plants

The aquatic plants or hydrophytes are plants adapted to a temporary or continuous existence wholly or largely under water (submers or emers). They have morphological adaptations that allow them to survive. While the 'true' aquatic plants do not root in the soil and can often live underwater (with the exception of the inflorescences), the helophytes or marsh plants root in the soil and usually rise above the surface of the water.

Climbing plants

Climbers are plants that need support to grow upwards because the stems are not sturdy enough to support the plant on their own. If there is no support, climbing plants will develop a creeping habit until they find support. Source: Wikipedia

Small Fruit

Small fruit is a collective name for all kinds of fruit-bearing shrubs. The berry group consists of various berry bushes, blackberries, raspberries, hazels and figs. The fruits are generally quite small; hence the name. The dimensions of the crops are also smaller than those of an average fruit tree. A number of these plants are therefore also suitable for smaller gardens or even pots. Source: Wikipedia
