My garden has 3 core functions. Recreation and play, Growing vegetables and fruits, and givin nature more room. The so called Controlled Wildernes. I Love to see all the different species the are coming by. But i always want to make it better, especially the combination of space for family and nature. Ive got inspired by the book The Garden Jungle from Dave Goulson. It just gave me more ideas and motivation to protect the smal animals, and make the garden usefull for more. But what about you? What books, articles, documentary etc, did inspire or would give me some ideas to let nature have more space in af garden?

Most of my garden is devoted to native/natural gardens. My challenge is always figuring out how to have clean aesthetics and a welcoming, usable outdoor space while also creating authentic-looking, functional plant communities. One book that has changed how I think about this is Planting in a Post-Wild World by Rainer and West.
