Vienna

[Gast Leoš kohoutek]

Hello dear friends,

Meeting in Vienna is coming and your Czech friends would like to see some nature in Austria... Could be anybody so kind to tell us if we can visit any habitat around Vienna? Any pings or...

 

Thank you very much

Dear Leos,

in and around Vienna there are not many habitats of carnivorous plants to find.

 

In Vienna you can find following species (book: Flora of Vienna):

U.vulgaris - in some of the cut-off lakes of the danube (22.district)

U.australis - in a pond in "Kalksburg" (23.district)

P.vulgaris - in the "Lainzer Tiergarten" (13.district)

 

U.vulgaris is easy to find because in some of the lakes you can go swimming - U.australis and P.vulgaris I never personally discoverd in Vienna.

 

Around Vienna there are also some places where you can find some of this plants but you have to drive min. 1 hour by car to find them:

 

U.vulgaris - Neusiedlersee (Burgenland)

P.vulgaris and alpina - around Gutenstein, Mariazell, Semmering

 

Pinguicula can be found relatively often but you need a guide to find the right places.

 

Kind regards

Günter
