Duel of landscape gardener

Six years ago, the Seil family bought a single-family home from the 1960s and fulfilled a dream. Now the matching garden should finally be created, because it is just as old as the house and has become quite overgrown.

The Heyder family from near Bonn has moved into a modern condominium in a former homestead. The large garden promises a lot of quality of life. But unfortunately parts of it are in an underground car park.

Anette Krauskopf and Uwe Thewes live in an old mine house in Hattingen. The garden hasn't been done in decades. Your dream is a rustic cottage garden without concrete that is particularly bee-friendly.

The Mertz-Hilgemann family of four lives in a beautiful thatched-roof house in the Bergisches Land, near Cologne. The house is an absolute dream, but you can't really get used to the 1800 square meter garden.

Tina Tißen has a green thumb and loves gardening, but she misses the garden. She has a paved courtyard and a double garage, of which she only needs one. The magic word is unsealing.

Bettina and Gunther Brunner bought a small house with an even smaller garden near Munich. This has become very overgrown over the years and leaves the couple with little space to relax.

His small, overgrown city garden is Tom Haass's pride and joy. He planted a lot of things here himself. But he is overwhelmed with the care: the bamboo is now overgrowing everything and there is a lack of structure, but also of coziness.

Stefanie Danziger, who grew up on the Baltic Sea, found her true love on the Lower Rhine. There she and her husband Ingo bought a house with a large garden. This is intended to awaken memories of home. Stefanie also wants a real beach feeling.

Bente Barck and Jens Ditzen have moved into a beautiful house on the Lower Rhine. Unfortunately, the associated garden was hardly maintained by the previous owners and now urgently needs to be adapted to the wishes and requirements of the young couple.

Constanze and Oliver Schnitzler bought a beautiful single-family home on Lake Starnberg with a view of nature. In order to be able to enjoy the idyll, the family wants a garden with colorful and, above all, insect-friendly plants.

Britta and Denise Colon from Baesweiler's garden was previously dominated by an old, defective pool. There will be more color here again in the future. Perennials, grasses and bushes should be planted around the garden house with a large terrace.

Constanze and Andreas Radek's garden is sloping and consists only of a green meadow. The two biologists want lush planting that attracts insects and birds.

Kerstin and Fabian Sonnenschein's garden is tidy but boring. The family would like more structure here: a wooden terrace, a fireplace, and the selection of plants should be bright and colorful.

Laura and Jan Kerschbaum from the Westerwald have a large garden that has so far been used primarily by their animals: six chickens and three goats. In the future, they also want to use the garden themselves and, above all, harvest fruit and vegetables.

The Börnig family's garden from Dortmund should have a Nordic flair. A hut with a Swedish look already exists and should be integrated into a harmonious concept.

Gabriele and Titus Graf from Bergheim have a garden on different levels. The couple would like a seating area with a watercourse and a fireplace upstairs, and above all, there should be flowers downstairs.

Carolin and Gregor Breidenbach bought a house in Bergisch Gladbach. There's only one thing that bothers them both: the neighboring house borders directly on their property, so the family always feels like they're being watched in the living room and on the terrace.
