If you have children, you should also have child-friendly plants in your garden. Here you can find out what you should look out for with the plants.
The garden is the kingdom of children
If you have children, you probably don't have a decorative garden at home. It goes without saying that the garden is the realm of the kids. Here they can romp and play. The bigger the garden, the better. As a hobby gardener, you don't have to do without the design of the garden. However, choosing the right plants should be the priority.
Do not plant poisonous bushes and trees
It goes without saying that poisonous plants such as bushes and trees have no place in a garden with children. Berries like elder or firethorn may look pretty, but the berries are poisonous. There are great alternatives such as cornel or chokeberry.
Planting plants without thorns or thorns
But what do children particularly like to do in a garden? That's right, they like to go exploring and play hide and seek. No bush or hedge is spared from them here. When the plants have no thorns or prickles. Because otherwise the whole thing is no longer fun. That is why you should avoid shrubs such as ornamental quince or barberry and prefer hornbeam or summer lilac. Risk of injury averted!
