Picture 13, What we can exactly do for the rebirth of nature? It is a practical and symbolic way which we may do in our gardens as well with flower seeds, if we have enough places. We collected dry seeds of different plants and we mixed them up with seaweeds and mud, which we prepared in the forest with soil and water. Then we created small balls of this mixture and we scattered them around in an unplanted area. In a garden, of course, when the plants spring up, then we will space them out. This is impossible to be done in the forest but the nature will look after the new plants; some of them will survive, some other will not. Picture 16, We filled our palettes with every kind of leaf or seeds we found out walking in the forest.
