history
The program was created in March 2000 on the initiative of Claudia Look-Hirnschal , who she moderated for almost 16 years. It is broadcast from May and October from the egapark and from November to April from the MDR winter garden.
In 2014, the “MDR GartenReich” was created in the egapark, a separate garden for the MDR, which serves as an outdoor location for the television program. Various series of experiments, such as the process of breeding and selection of annual flowers and perennials, can be viewed there. Test plantings for echinacea (sun hats), heuchera (purple bells) and gerberas , which are tested for their aesthetics, durability and winter hardiness, are designed for the long term .
Up until the end of broadcasting in 2016, the broadcast was repeated in EinsPlus' evening program .
