The garden of the Beukehof is a special garden. Much of the botanical garden is wild. You will find there angelica, wild garlic, marsh orchid, horsetails, lythrum, evening primrose, violet, forget me nots, sorrel, agrimony, goldenrod, hogweed, corn cockle, wild teasels, anemones. Some of these plants are also known as weeds, and they are beautiful.
Many birds find a spot in the garden, nests of wren, robin, thrush, blackbird, wagtails and flycatchers are well hidden in the bush. Regularly we see herons in the garden, occasionally a buzzard, a sparrow hawk, an owl or a woodpecker. Sometimes a group of fieldfare lands, on their way south. Wild ducks hide their nest around the pond and the ditches, and give in spring an evening concert.
In summer the Catalpa trees with their large leaves let a soft green light pass.
Budlleia's, agrimony and wild marjoran are frequented by butterflies: peacock butterflies, the small turtoiseshell, the orange tip, the red admiral..
In the ponds brown frogs, are living, and making their snorkling noise.
Behind the garden is a - hard to reach -smal State Forest with a little lake. Here you can often spot deer.
The beech tree is estimated to be at least 150 years old. The tree stands, according to an expert, at a crossroad of ley lines.
