Garden tranquility
When landscaping your garden, be sure to consider decorating your patio. This cozy corner will become a wonderful place where all your household members will rest under the arches of the blue sky.
The size of the patio depends on its direct use, but we must not forget that the extra area will not interfere with anyone and there will always be a use for it. The size of the yard for a family of 4 people must be at least 10 square meters. m. An additional area of about 5 sq. m will be required for the barbecue area. m. All pieces of furniture should be light and comfortable enough to create a calm atmosphere conducive to free rest. Care must be taken to protect the patio from direct sunlight.
Comfort, but not complete isolation
With green hedges and tall perennials, you can create an intimate setting for your patio. Avoid planting very often and close to patios as the planting will press on you. At the border of the adjacent plot, you can install wooden trellises or a fence made of climbing netting to protect you from curious neighbors and from drafts. If you decorate your patio with container greenery, it will look attractive for much longer. The containers can be cultivated with different plants depending on the season, and then they will decorate your patio almost all year round.
If the patio is located in the southern part of the site, do not forget about the shelter from the sun's rays, and various outbuildings, as well as sun umbrellas, will help you with this. They will perfectly allow you to relax there even in the hottest. And the pergola, closed on all sides by climbing flowering crops, is one of the most effective sunscreens.
Simplify your life
Wooden screen fences will help to form an area on the garden plot, protected from all sides from nosy neighbors. They can be easily built, and by planting original bright red beans or fiery nasturtium near a wooden trellis, you will immediately turn the structures into a real garden decoration.
If you plant tall green plants in containers equipped with wheels, you will create a mobile live fence and, if necessary, provide yourself with protection from prying eyes in any corner of the garden plot.
