I am a very outdoorsy person. I love spending time outside, gardening and hiking, and I enjoy having a natural landscape in my garden. There are lots of plants that are native to California and I try to include some of those in my garden. I also like to mix in some plants from other parts of the world because they add interest and diversity to my garden.
I like to mix different plants and flowers together to create interesting patterns and textures. I often use Begonia, Hosta, and snapdragons for this purpose. By combining different colors, shapes, and textures, I am able to create a wide variety of designs.
Some plants that are hardy in your area and easy to care for include: Basil: This plant is hardy in most areas and makes a great addition to any garden. Basil can be grown in a container or in the ground. Cabbage: Cabbage is another great option for those who have space in their garden. This tough veggie can be grown from seed or transplanted. Celery: Celery is a popular pick for those who want an easy going vegetable to grow, but doesn't mind getting a little dirty. Celery can be grown from seed or transplanted. Collard Greens: Collard greens are another tough vegetable that can handle some frosty weather conditions. Collard greens are great additions to any meal and can be grown from seed or transplanted.
Keeping your garden looking neat and tidy is important. Regular clipping and pruning will keep it looking attractive and tidy.
In many ways, plants in containers are the perfect backyard garden companions. You can move them to new areas as needed, and theyre easy to care for. Plus, they offer a variety of colors and textures that can brighten up any space.
If you have a balcony, turn it into your own little garden space by planting flowers and shrubs in pots or hanging baskets. You can also add colorful accents such as brightly painted chairs or tables, or brightly colored flowers in cheerful pottery containers.
