Walter Erhardt

Walter Erhardt is a German botanist and garden writer. In addition, until his retirement he was a teacher in elementary school and media pedagogy and information technology advisor for the district of Kulmbach and head of the local media center.

As a garden writer, he wrote numerous books and articles, especially for "Gartenpraxis" and "DeGa" (both published by Eugen Ulmer, Stuttgart). Most of his books were also published there. As a result of his intensive occupation with plants and his work as a professional writer, an extensive botanical specialist library was created, which among other things contains almost all international variety registers.
