My plot is not very large, so I tried to use it wisely for every meter. It was not easy, because I have dozens of species of flowers, trees and shrubs.
In my rich collection of plants there are, among others bouquet hydrangea. It grows quite high, so so that it does not break, it has a wire frame. I also made similar supports for ground cover roses, of which I have a dozen or so. Wire racks are almost invisible and beautifully display bushes that would otherwise lie on the ground.
I hid the house from the street side behind a row of emerald thuja. In front of them there are forsythia, whose spring yellow flowers look nice against the background of green conifers.
On both sides of the house, three varieties of grapevines are climbing on special fences, and in front of the apartment building I have set up a vegetable garden. I have everything I need in the kitchen planted in it - vegetables, cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, pole beans, and from fruit - strawberries. Such a garden close to home is a real treasure.
I planted a hedge along the entrance to the property. There is also a piece of the garden behind him. It is entered via the pergola. I have mostly fruit bushes there.
In the middle of the plot I set up a large flower bed with a diameter of about 6 meters. He is my pride. Small shrubs and various perennials grow on it. In spring, tulips, narcissi, hyacinths and forget-me-nots reign here. When they fade, I put colorful asters in their place, which please my eyes until autumn.
Every now and then I water the flowers and bushes with a hen mixed in water. Thanks to this, they are beautiful and he althy.
I say to flowers out of habit - I praise them when they grow nicely or I blame them when something bad happens to them. A plant that looks worse is "threatened" to give it one last chance. I say if she doesn't get better, I'll kick her out. Please believe that it works!
