How to Make the Most out of Your Garden Space

 

Gardening is a hobby enjoyed by most women. It is an activity that does not only make our homes more beautiful but some plants provide food for the family. People who garden are also fit because it serves as a form of exercise. Gardens also serve as space for homeowners to entertain their guests especially if there is a tree that provides shade.

What creativity can you bring into your garden space to make it look more exciting especially as we enter the rainy season. Lamudi Ghana has compiled some ideas which will improve the look of your garden space:

Do something different
Creativity can be introduced into the garden space by not focusing solely on plants in the garden soil. Many flower lovers are coming up with very imaginative ideas of using drawers that are probably not in use in the home. They can be filled with soil and later, seeds planted in them.

Old car tires can also filled with soil and used as flower beds. Many people beautify the garden space by painting them with very bright paint.

Other items that can change the entire outlook of your garden are your kids’ broken toys, that is, your child’s mini truck and wooden cartons. If there are tree stumps in the middle of the garden, they can also serve as a platform for flower pots.

Once in awhile, you can change the color of the flower bed to give it a different appearance. Marbles or broken rocks can be used around the flowers or trees to give them a new look.

Add more originality
There are gardens that have hanging plants. In other words, there are flower pots or vases hanging on the branches of the tree. These are beautiful. The branches of the tree in the garden can also serve as a platform for lanterns in the night, especially if you decide to organise a party at night.

No matter where you live, you can have a garden in your home. For those living in apartments, vertical gardens are good options, where plants are placed on a fence or a structure to suspend them.

Let’s enjoy in the garden
What is a garden space without seats? A garden can only be admired if there is a seat. The chaise or lovers’ bench is the first option when it comes to selecting a seating type for the garden. What about a simple tree stump or piece of rock? Let your living room have some peace, receive your visitors in the garden.

This is the time to start a garden if you do not have one already.
