Oliver and Martina Ringel are the heart and soul of Ringel Nurseries.

Personal service is also a top priority: Martina Ringel is the contact person for business customers, but she also provides expert advice to private garden owners.
Another project close to the nursery's heart is to introduce even the youngest visitors to the world of plants.
