Abstract
Years ago, there was plenty of open, natural veld surrounding our towns and it was rich in wildlife. As towns expanded the natural veld and wildlife shrank into patches between towns, factories and farm land. With this reduction in natural areas, suburban gardens now form an important place where wild animals can live and indigenous plants can flourish. There are many things that one can do to be an ‘environmentally friendly’ gardener.
