Blooming Paradise: The Diversity of the World in Your Own Garden. Since childhood, Thomas Amersberger has been fascinated by exotic plants and nature-inspired gardens, and he has developed his own approach to garden design from these two passions. What sounds like a contradiction has transformed in his experimental garden, spanning over 4000 m², into an impressive whole with thousands of plants from around the world. For many years, photographer Christoph Böhler has captured the garden in all seasons and documented its evolution. This has resulted in a picture book that combines the aesthetic value of the garden with artistic plant images, creating a unique visual experience while also providing tips and ideas on how to make your own garden more diverse and nature-friendly. For the first time, a gardening book describes the sustainable impacts of the internet and global trade.
