When I walk outside my front door, I am surrounded by colors. There is the bright green of the lawn, the deep red tomatoes in the garden, and the contrasting blue sky. Against all these colors are the sturdy brown branches of the apple tree and the soft white petals of the moonflowers. Beside my house is a garden with plants in different colors and textures. There are tall plants with pale green leaves and flowers that are a mix of colors including violet, yellow, and white. There are also shorter plants with red flowers and green leaves. Nearby there is a garden with brightly colored vegetables like oranges, yellows, and purples. The textures of these gardens include rough surfaces on some of the vegetables, while others have smooth surfaces. There are also gardens with shapes including circles, squares, triangles, and lines. Every garden has something different to offer so whether I'm looking for colors or textures or both I always find what I'm looking for in a garden.
A plastic bottle garden is a fun way to add some elements of nature to your garden. You can choose from a variety of plants, including annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees, that can thrive in a small space thanks to their container roots. Some of the best plants for a plastic bottle garden are annual flowers, such as impatiens or petunias. These plants will last for one season and flowers will provide colorful blooms throughout the summer. Perennial plants, such as hostas or blueberries, are also great choices for a plastic bottle garden because they will last for several seasons and can add height and substance to your garden. If you want to add more interest to your garden, choose a shrub or tree that is suited for a small space. For example, umbrella leaf yucca or dwarf fruit trees are both good choices because they are low-maintenance and provide plenty of foliage to brighten up your garden.
