A harmonious garden is one that is full of plants and flowers that are compatible with the style of the home and garden. Some plants that work well in a traditional style garden are roses, lilies, tulips, daisies, irises and Canterbury bells. For a more modern look, plants such as ivy, bougainvillea and clematis can be a good choice. There is no wrong plant choice when it comes to creating a harmonious garden - just be sure to choose plants that will look good alongside your existing structure and landscaping.
When watering plants, make sure to water them deeply but less frequently in the early morning and late evening. Fertilize plants with a liquid fertilizer every three to four weeks during the growing season.
The small house garden offers a beautiful view of flowers, herbs, and trees. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the natural beauty around you.
Some plants which can tolerate poor soil and grow in shady areas are agapanthus, ivy, winterberry, azaleas, rhododendrons.
The colors in a garden are always so pleasing. A gardener could choose to have a muted color palette or go all out with bright and cheerful hues. Different textures add interest to the garden, such as rough ground for looser plants, or a more planted-out feel for taller plants. Additionally, different shapes can be used, like containers filled with different sized plants or free-standing sculptures.
Adding a water feature, such as a pond or stream, to your landscape will add life and movement to the scene. This can help to make the area look more inviting and lively.
