At HORUS Paysages, the meadow is both a passion and a project tool. We were therefore eager to discover the products of the Alsatian seed producer, Nungesser. “Nungesser Seeds”, based in Alsace, has specialized since 1973 in the renaturation of landscape sites, offering a wide range of mixes ranging from lawn to natural meadow. What we appreciate about Nungesser is their commitment to biodiversity through mixes that take into account the entomofauna, which is particularly dependent on meadows.
Meadows in HORUS Landscapes Projects
HORUS Paysages places great importance on meadows, which are a project asset for:
- Importance for ecosystems (especially entomofauna and the biological balance of the garden)
- Structuring the garden through mowing and cutting
- Climate resilience: no watering in the summer
- Resource savings through differentiated management: when your garden exceeds 5,000m2, it can sometimes make more sense not to mow the entire area, both economically and ecologically. Differentiated management allows for the segmentation of areas kept as lawns or even grass, and others left as meadows with one cut per year.
