Enrich your surroundings with a wildflower meadow
Glendale has been one of the UK’s leading grounds maintenance companies for over 35 years, leading the way and setting benchmarks in the industry for a long time. We’re not just all about green spaces though, we also like to factor in a few reds, pinks, yellows, purples, and more in the form of our stunning wildflower meadows. Many of our clients request our meadow creation services for a more natural look as opposed to our equally as beautiful flower bedding services, which are a lot more uniform and organised.
Creating a native wildflower meadow can be a difficult task, so choosing the right installer to help you is essential, with Glendale’s expertise and knowledge, you’re in safe hands if you decide to use us – we’ll make sure to create a successful meadow that will really enhance your green spaces.
You’ll be helping native grasses and flower species thrive whilst developing beautiful exteriors – many companies focus on the interiors of their building, whilst ignoring the land surrounding it, not realising that they can make the outside of their business look better whilst adding to biodiversity.
A field of wild flowers, native plants, and grass species that are left to grow. These meadows can be found in many regions around the world and each one is unique and incredibly beautiful. They are composed of a variety of different types of plants, including grasses, shrubs, and a wide selection of colourful flowers. They provide an important habitat for a variety of wildlife species, from birds to insects to small mammals, and are excellent for pollinators like bees and butterflies. They’re also great for human recreation; they provide stunning views as well as an excellent opportunity for nature observation and photography. Additionally, these meadows can help protect soil from erosion and reduce flooding by soaking up excess water. Thus, wildflower meadows not only bring beauty to the landscape but also play an important role in preserving the environment.
The growth of the industrial world has led to many of our precious green spaces being destroyed to make way for buildings and other man-made structures; this has unfortunately included the decline of wildflowers. There used to be wildflowers in every parish, with the UK now losing 97% of our wildflower meadows (source: The Guardian). Here at Glendale, our mission is to make the country a little bit greener day by day – there are many benefits when it comes to investing in more green spaces for the land you own, but we believe that helping preserve the environment and add to biodiversity should be reason enough.
Biodiversity is an important part of the environment, and it’s something we should care about. When species become extinct or their numbers decline, it can have a ripple effect throughout the entire ecosystem. Without biodiversity, our world loses its balance which can cause serious consequences for us as humans. We depend on biodiversity to maintain clean air and water, provide food sources, and even increase genetic diversity. By adding to biodiversity, we can help preserve our planet’s natural resources while also making sure that future generations will be able to enjoy them too. Additionally, by protecting a variety of species, we are helping ensure that the planet will remain healthy and productive in the face of global climate change. Therefore, we should all take steps to add to biodiversity in order to protect our world and its inhabitants now and in the future.
Investing in a wildflower meadow for your business will help show your corporate responsibility and increase the respect people have for you and your business. With consumers growing more environmentally conscious, it’s important to align with their values so your business will be in their minds if they ever need the service or product you supply.
