Redevelopment
This type of work, which is mandatory for a flower garden, must be carried out at the end of summer. At the beginning of work, decide what you want to change, what work to carry out:
- multilevel plants will look preferable in a new flower garden;
- giving it a new shape;
- size matters also in case of changes in the flower garden;
- building a composition;
- thinning;
- giving completeness and harmony.
Advice
- Complete clearing of the flower garden. The most successful landings can be left, later it is easier to form a new one around them. Perennial flowers tolerate transplanting well, annuals can be planted in a new place;
- define the shape. Round, square or rectangular will be your future flower garden. Or maybe you like an irregular shape? Your imagination and your emotions will tell you. Who is the owner of the flower garden - to that and determine its shape;
- change the size. Immediately plan what the flower garden will be, whether the sides are necessary - they should clearly emphasize the contour of future plantings. From what material they will be - you choose. A wide selection is now offered - brick, tile, wood and plastic.
Forming a flower garden, gardeners plan that it will delight with its flowering throughout the garden season. Therefore, flowers must be planted so that they not only do not interfere with each other, but also perfectly complement each other.
Planting correctly
In order for the flower garden to bloom practically without interruption during the season, follow these simple rules:
- Divide the flower garden into sections - their number depends on how many flowers you plan to plant.
- Plant in such a way that the flower bed is visible from all sides, and different types of flowers are presented in different parts.
- Be sure to use plants in the flower garden that have a long flowering period, as well as those that bloom several times. For example, daylily, astilba, marigolds bloom for a long time, but lupins can bloom 2 times per season. It is important to cut off dried inflorescences in time.
- You can include early flowers in the flower beds: crocuses, daffodils, tulips. They will delight immediately after the snow melts and create a great mood.
- Ornamental shrubs look great as part of a flower garden: cinquefoil, chubushnik, viburnum Buldenezh and others. They create shape and mood.
- Leave a few empty spots in the flower garden. They will come in handy for future plantings.
- Use decorative elements: garden figurines, lanterns, products from natural materials.
