There are a lot of landscaping
ideas and we always can find for new sources. The only thing is
which one is the best for us. Is it the landscape ideas are working on us? Or
is it suitable if the ideas are applied at our landscape area? And one more
issue is the resources and physical restriction. So what is the best for us? Well
there are one thousand and one of landscape ideas that we can execute. I like to share on one realistic idea for us
to have a try.
Have you ever heard about hanging
pot plants? Maybe you are asking yourself why hanging pot plants and what is
the difference between hanging pot plants and other technique of planting. Now I
will elaborate in brief the benefit of this landscape idea.
Hanging pot plant is easy to work
with. Besides it does not require large area, a small area also can make your
landscape view looks great. Thus it is easy for you to maintain, less hassle
for you to work with, it does not involves expensive cost. You just need to concentrate
at one area only. So there is nothing for you to be doubt on.
Now I like to share with you how
we going to start on. Just identify the location first, it must be easy for you
to access, do work and comfort. Select a landscape location where you think it will create an amazing view if you
put this idea on it. These are the
criteria necessary for forming a hanging container garden. They are pots with appropriate
support structures, soil, crop requirement and the material used as the basis
for a set of hanging plants to look elegant and luxurious.
First of all decide what you are
going to plant. You can do your research but here I would like to share with
you some ideas for you to start on your landscape design. I would like to
suggest a Trailing Verbenas and Calibrachoa 'Million Bells' these two flowers are
beautiful and suitable for hanging pot. Both bloom nicely from mid-Spring to
mid-Fall and also help local pollinators such bees, butterflies and
hummingbirds, which are experiencing population decline. Another one is
Wave Petunias, this is also a very pretty flower and they come in a bunch of
colors.
Use good quality of soil the
right mix is 3:2:1 of soil: sand: organic matter. Usually ready mixed soil can be
found in a nursery in a particular pack. However, it's best if you use free
Potting soil mix that is reserved for potted plants. Ensure that appropriate
fertilizer is used to supply sufficient nutrients for the plants.
Select right container for your
plants. There are various pots with many designs for you to choose. For the
hanging material you can use natural liner for wire basket. Natural liner that
can be used for hanging pots iron is sphagnum moss or dried moss, coconut coir
or cocoa. Natural liner also helps keep the roots of the land at any given time
as well as look more attractive than plastic pots. Match the wire basket with
hanging plants show interesting combinations seen from many angles
The correct way to
fertilize your plants is use a slow release fertilizer in the soil and manure
mixture of water each time watering. Add the appropriate top dressing like
cocoa pit or natural mulch material on the surface if necessary to keep the
soil moist. Remove and cut the tree which is dead or damaged this to prevent infection
to the other parts. In addition, this method can also avoid contagion from
insect pests.
