Easy Tips to Make Garden Maintenance

Most people think that having the park will create a hassle to take care of him, get rid of that thought because the park is home not so much trouble in his care.

TIPS Before Redesigning Gardens

1. Look through the window of your house, and notice what you see. Is the view from the living room, kitchen and from other rooms similar to what you see now? If not, this scene could be changed or redesigned with plant or build something to highlight the beauty or the lack of cover outside areas of our house?

2. Sit down with members of your family and discuss what is good and bad about the house and land in the yard, and list what they want to change.

With Garden Access Path

Of course those of us who love the garden always wanted to plant our crops are not damaged it? Solution path laying in the middle of the garden is the best way to avoid the above events. Moreover, if we want a spacious lawn and always flourish, and has a lot of places that require the access road is an important factor in it.

Various shapes and paths model is very much at all. Squares, rectangles, ovals, and naturally we can choose according to the theme parks we have. If we have a minimalist garden should we choose the minimalist design too, such as a square or rectangular like the picture above. But if we make a path with a tropical theme garden and we should naturally choose a natural.

The shape, material, size and a very affordable price we can get at the store or place that specializes in material path. Tips sizes to create a path square and rectangular in my experience is 40 × 40 cm, 50 × 50 cm, 60 × 60 cm, 40 × 60 cm, 50 × 70cm, 60 × 90 cm, 60 × 120 cm, and onwards. And for the distance between the step with one another between 9 to 12 cm, but should be about 10 cm.

Other forms such as oval or naturally also noteworthy for the size and material of the path. Adjust the path of material with rock elements that match the surrounding buildings. For the step spacing is way above my mantle. Many materials that we can choose. And one more tips, try the path you have created parallel to the surface of the soil or the lawn of our garden, so as not to interfere with user convenience.

Balcony Garden

Many homes today are built up, it's strategy for limited land size. Even now, it is also angry with minimum built area of apartments green areas. But this is not a reason to not make or have in the garden house / apartment units. The balcony can be used as an area of small green areas and beauty. How?



Carefully Before Arranging

It is important to ask the parties to plan and build these buildings, whether the area that we are the lyrics to a balcony garden is strong enough to support the additional burden of the park or plant material. Similar to planning a roof garden, need also to take into account the maximum load that can be sustained by building the framework underneath.

Then the maintenance of maintenance is also important to note. Is the location accessible by water or fertilizer can be done or the addition of planting medium? All must be taken into account in the implementation of security maintenance.

Making outer space and privacy
With either set of plants that are planted directly in pots or hanging will form an outer space that can function as a family recreation room, or even the family's privacy. Placing the plants in a row can also serve as an effective windbreak. But this position should be noted that these plant stands firmly as a strong wind came. By providing a wide range bit, the wind pressure can be solved, so do not make a broken or uprooted plants.

Plants in containers more secure
In a fairly narrow location, sometimes in a container planting is the best option. Both in the manufacture planter or by placing a potted plant. It all depends with accessibility implementation.

For planting in the planter, to note how watering and disposal of flushing water left. If creative, home owners can take advantage of waste water for air conditioning plants and make flushing drain rain water into the channel. The point is not to create abundance and puddle on the deck or patio building of the house.

The placement of potted plants also need to be examined. Do not put heavy enough pot lane balcony less powerful prop load. The species used are resistant to sunlight, dry conditions in drought or very wet during the rainy season, as well as exposure to wind resistance.

As the plant collections
The location is relatively difficult to reach people from the outside, making this area is often a good place to put a collection of plants that cost quite expensive. Say popular species such as Anthurium, Aglonema , And Philodendron . Environmental conditions were adjusted to the balcony which is shaded and cool, but still good air circulation.

Also if there is no shade in the area, can put vegetable crops grown in the container. Age of their life cycle is relatively short, allowing us to grow crops with vegetable plants we want.

So, where and how was the location of the place, a small garden can be created. Is no exception with such a narrow area on the balcony or terrace buildings on the house.

In order for the House Permanent Plant Fresh

Bring plants inside the house more and more in demand. Besides beautify the room, the plants in the house also serves to keep indoor air clean.

3. Do not put plants in proximity to the source of heat generated from electronic equipment and kitchen equipment.

4. The air is too dry, humid, and stuffy due to many reasons can reduce plant fitness. Make sure the room has adequate ventilation.

Small Garden Set

Each building must have an inch of vacant land. This small land will determine to increase your beauty home . Display a park certainly did not depend on the size and area of land. If done with care and a mature design, a small garden can beautify the home as a whole. There are various ways to impress a cute little garden and wonderful. Having a small garden at home is strongly recommended that in addition to beautify the face of the house will also be very good for the health and psychological.

Three things to note in gardening are:

First, if we have a limited area (narrow), one formula is not to have a desire to move other people into the park park itself. This is because people tend to want to have what has been a neighbor or someone else. Because our land is limited, make a small garden with various kinds of plants that are also small (stunted) this is to achieve a balanced proportion between the park with the facade of our house.

Second, what about the direction of sunlight, this will affect the lighting conditions with a selection of garden plants. If the park does not get enough sunlight, can select the type of plants that like shade (not really need the sun). Circulation direction of the sun is very important because it affects the process in plants fotosintetic in our garden.

Third, soil conditions and water absorption. To produce a good garden requires good soil conditions. Categorized fertile soil if high levels manure making it easier to absorb water. For big cities, usually less fertile soil conditions for the necessary treatment before make garden. Namely by mixing the soil with manure or compost.

To set up a tiny garden, there are two important elements that determine the soft (soft material) and hard elements (hard material).

Elements of this software consists of what types of plants we will plant. Are shrubs, vines (Alamanda cathartica), shade plants, flowering plants and ground cover plants (such as purslane, blue eyes, onion or grass). Noteworthy is the proportion of plants that are low to tall plants, so that looks interesting.

Water also include software elements which we often present in the park. With limitations of our land we can by making a small pond with a mini waterfall in the wall that had been transformed with rocks form a cliff park. This cliff park other than for aesthetic reasons also serve to hide the wall a massive house and slippery. In addition, as a way out if the soil conditions in our homes is very barren and infertile.
The presence of water pools with a constant flow of cool air will add to the garden. To facilitate the required water circulation pump automatically so that water circulation is maintained. Gurgling sound of water will add to the atmosphere calm and quiet. To further highlight the natural nuances, it is useful plants equipped with water or with a special urn. Water plants like lotus, or water poppies will be able to release a loud impression presented by the rocks. To avoid a mosquito nest maintained a good idea too few fish placed in the pool.

While elements of hard rock, which is often used as a supporter of the beauty of the park. This natural stone slab with a form of irregular composition can serve as a path and will add a natural impression. Park did not always have a path, but this road serves as a circulation that allows us to explore the whole park without stepping on grass or soil. There are different types of natural stone selection in the market has to offer, live according to our tastes and pockets. The beauty of small gardens more complete if it is added to the sculpture as well as aesthetic ornaments garden lighting. In addition to the lighting, this lamp will make the park look dramatic at night. Aesthetic ornaments such as jars would also make a small garden look more attractive.
