ADD SOME COLOUR TO YOUR GARDEN THIS SUMMER
Summer is here, but don't
cry over the fact that there will be no flowers in your garden in this
wilting heat. You can make your outdoor look cheery and colourful
in several ways by painting the walls, pots fences and tiles. You can
also opt for a miniature garden inside your house Here is how you can
mix colours together and be a little innovative...
MINIATURE GARDENS
Go innovative with a miniature garden within a container. Orchids and money plants thrive well in a terrarium and give a classy look to your home. If you cannot give a big enough space to your indoor garden, a terrarium garden can do wonders. For indoor gardening, succulents are best as they do not require much watering and sunlight and can grow in any environment. Succulents will liven up your miniature garden as they are available in different shades of purple, red, orange and green. They are conducive to indoor gardening and are low maintenance. Better still is the fact that they are beautiful to look at and available in different shades. Terrariums look fantastic when hung close to your window.
POTS AND PANS
Terracotta pots will give an arty look to your outdoor space. You can stick to earthy hues or opt for bright colours. Plain or textured terracotta pots can bring out the brightness of plants. The combination of yellow and green go very well. So, if your plant is green in colour, opt for a yellow pot. At the same time, red leaf plants can accentuate the look of your garden and look gorgeous if you put them in a coloured wine bottle. Don't stick to regular pots for your plants, instead opt for kettles, milk cans, cups, wooden boxes or even tree logs. Let your imagination go wild and paint metal buckets and cans in mischievous bright colours. Bottles and electric bulbs can be used to put money plants or creepers. A cactus garden on a glass dish or pan will give an exotic touch to your garden. Cactus is easy to maintain and grows even in a harsh environment.You can keep the cactus garden both indoor and outdoor. Place colourful pebbles, artificial golden eggs and shells on the soil.
GO INNOVATIVE WITH THE WALL
Keep the colour of your outdoor walls as bright as possible.You can use colours like orange, pink and red and at the same time opt for white walls to showcase the bright green colours of your plants. If you want to give a rustic look to your garden, then opt for a red brick wall. The idea is to choose the right combination of colours. Walls with plants hanging from them will add a luxurious look to your outdoor living space.
A vertical garden on a single wall is perfect for small apartments where there is not enough space. Take a room which gets plenty of sunlight and choose that wall to hang your pots. You can use a hanging wrought iron pot stand to hang your greens.
