Gartenträume auf der Rennbahn Hoppegarten

Botanical Tour with Plant Doctor René Wadas

Plant doctor René Wadas personally guides visitors on a botanical tour of the garden fair, visiting exhibitors who are pioneers in the gardening industry. During this journey of discovery through gardens, plants, herbs, and flowers, participants will learn which plants pair perfectly, what care tips the plant doctor has to offer, and what grows in René Wadas’s own garden.

Plant Doctor René Wadas also invites visitors to daily plant consultations. Visitors can bring ailing plants, their leaves, fruits, or even photos to Gartenträume. René Wadas knows how to interpret their symptoms. After the diagnosis, René Wadas draws up a treatment plan, always relying on natural remedies without chemicals.

Feng Shui, Plant Paradises, and Herbalism

The principles of Feng Shui are key to garden design that touches the soul and spirit. Plants take center stage—and so a mini-show garden at Gartenträume demonstrates the basics of Feng Shui in a small space. Another show garden area featuring natural stones and a rock fountain highlights the importance of moving water.

Flowering shrubs, hedge plants, fruit trees, perennials, and climate-hardy trees of the future: Gartenträume showcases the lush plant life from local growers. Added to this are Mediterranean fruit trees that bring exotic fruits to your own garden or terrace. Hundreds of varieties of culinary and medicinal herbs also demonstrate how small differences create great diversity. Wild plants grown from certified, locally sourced seeds, with their natural blooms, are invaluable for the biodiversity of the insect world.

Modern technology and ideas for gardens, patios, and balconies

Furnish your garden, terrace, and balcony with new ideas: At Gartenträume, exhibitors offer innovations straight from their own workshops. Modern materials, technology, and ideas are put to use in raised beds, terrace construction, greenhouses, gazebos, and more. Robotic lawn mowers utilize advanced AI technology for a purely virtual boundary of the area via app.

Outdoor kitchens with all the extras demonstrate how well life and celebrations under the starry sky can be combined with fresh culinary delights. Earth cellars use innovative systems to provide natural food cooling without electricity.

A seeding tool, as clever as it is simple and developed with gardening expertise, ensures strong roots and healthy plant growth right from the start. The latest trends in garden planning, design, and planting come from the world of gardening and landscaping.
