When Trees Learn to Speak: A Tour through the Botanical Garden

This event at the Botanical Garden Bielefeld invites a focused examination of nature itself. Under the title Can trees communicate? Do they have a memory? Do they have sex?, Wolfgang Wörmann guides through the tree species of the garden and opens a view on plant life forms between biology, perception, and cultural education. The date is scheduled for August 23, 2026, at 15:00 and is part of the annual program of the Environmental Operations of the City of Bielefeld and the Friends of the Botanical Garden Association.

Botanical Diversity as an Aesthetic Experience

The Botanical Garden at Kahlenberg is one of those places where knowledge and artistic experience intertwine. Winding paths, a vibrant plant population, rhododendrons, camellias, and the special topographical layout shape the exhibition atmosphere of this outdoor space. Anyone walking here does not experience a static presentation, but an ever-new composition of light, foliage, space, and season.

Between Science and Wonder

The tour takes trees seriously not only as botanical objects but as organisms with complex survival strategies. The title refers to current debates about communication, memory, and reproduction in the plant kingdom and makes clear how lively the communication in the Botanical Garden is structured. This is precisely the strength of this event: It connects science, vivid explanations, and a surprisingly sensual approach to the world of trees.

A Place for Cultural Education in Nature

The Botanical Garden is maintained by the City of Bielefeld and is centrally located. Sources about the garden state that it is accessible year-round; at the same time, the city’s information recommends traveling by public transportation. This makes the visit suitable as a low-threshold cultural and nature experience for individual visitors, families, and nature-interested groups.
