Smart Gardening: Technology And Plants!
Smart gardening uses the latest technology, which significantly simplifies gardening. This leaves more time for relaxation.
One’s own garden is still a place of longing to leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life behind, entrust oneself to the rhythm of nature and relax in beautiful surroundings. People expect a lot from the garden, even if they bring less and less of their own experience and knowledge about plants. A frequently expressed wish is for a finished garden – the hedge should be dense in the first year, the house tree is planted as a large specimen, Ground cover areas should be densely closed from the start, fruit trees should bear fruit in the first year if possible.
“For many, the garden is also a social sage. You are invited to a garden party, where people are no longer just barbecuing outside, but cooking in perfectly equipped outdoor kitchens. You stroll through the garden and enjoy the colors and shapes of the trees, the scent of flowers and water features together. Nowadays, gardens are often designed just as elaborately as the interior design of a house. A garden sauna with an outdoor shower, special light installations or art objects are no longer uncommon.
Helpful Technology For Smart Gardens
Smart Gardening Irrigation
The progressive digitalization of our everyday life has long since reached the garden. Robotic lawn mowers take care of the lawn cuttings autonomously, automatic watering provides the plants with optimal care and also saves water because it is used as needed and at the right times. People have more free time than before, but also more opportunities and offers to spend their time. Many garden tasks that are repeated regularly are now being automated. The technology does not replace gardening knowledge – professional support is still required, for example with the installation, monitoring and care of the system.
“Terms such as “smart gardening” or “dream garden 4.0” arouse curiosity and are not only of interest to people with an affinity for technology. August Forster, President of the Federal Association of Garden, Landscaping and Sports Field Construction (BGL) e.V. distinguishes between two types of garden owners: “There are still those for whom gardening is a welcome change and who enjoy grounding themselves in the literal sense. Today, however, many primarily want to relax in the garden and value appropriate technical equipment and reliable services from the landscape gardener.” Many companies have developed special digital offers that ensure 24/7 monitoring of customer gardens. Appropriate servers evaluate the data from different gardens and any discrepancies can be reacted to quickly.
Smart Gardening Plants
“Technology is important, especially where it makes work easier. But the most essential element that makes gardens gardens are and will remain plants,” says BGL President August Forster.
The technical helpers are also popular with older garden owners, who can keep their areas around the house “in good shape” with less physical effort. A pleasant side effect is that the new devices are all battery-powered and therefore do not cause any disturbance due to noise or exhaust fumes. Smart gardening is the logical and consistent further development of tools and devices for today. However, they neither change the garden culture nor do they limit the design options. Technology is important, especially where it makes work easier. But the most essential element that makes gardens gardens are and will remain plants. Selecting the right shrubs, perennials and grasses that are suitable for the respective location and meet the wishes of the garden owner is the most important task for our industry. It’s wonderful when technical aids help the garden develop well and the owners can enjoy it for a long time.
