Reuse The Organic Waste

It is always recommended to choose organic manure over the commercial fertilizers. What can act better as organic manure than your everyday organic kitchen waste? Indeed! One man’s trash can be other man’s treasure.

Try to sort out the vegetable peels and fruit skins. Try adding the crushed egg shells (helps to provide Calcium and Phosphorus to roots). Also add used tea leaves and leftover coffee grounds. Having mixed the ingredients well, try to spread the mix near the plant roots.

Personalized Garden Ponds

The garden ponds can be placed in the middle surrounded by plants in half alternate concentric plants. Bonding with the pond in your garden can always escalate the attraction level of the garden.

It can be left in its natural hue as well; whichever suits the garden well. Precaution- kindly remember to leave a tiny hole at the bottom of the planters for aeration purposes.

Refix The Broken Pots

The plant pots which get broken in the due course of gardening can also be put to use. Gardening is absolutely a wholesome process. Likewise, the pot’s broken parts can be colored differently. These can be utilized as garden markers. Likewise, markers reading- “Welcome to the house of Lilies” or “Roses are waiting for you”.

While preparing garden markers, you can also use stones and get them colored in the same fashion. Thereby, these stones can also be used to decorate the flower pots. They can encircle the short pines and ferns also. If you have tiny visitors at your garden, you can always use these colored stones to architect a stone fairy house.

New Posers – Cycles And Wagons

If you have cycles or wagons that have been untended for long, recycle them as flower holders. First things first. Smoothen the body of the new posers so that no poky rusted material peeps about. Attach baskets at the back and front part of the cycle and get the entire vehicle richly painted. Try to accommodate bushy flowered plants in these baskets. The wagon can be given a vintage look by leaving it unpainted but glossy. Do remember to locate these posers near some tall shrubs to further contrast the colors to make it attractive.
