What to do if you're in the shower free artist and all traditional approaches to landscape design suburban area you don't like? Flowerbeds that require constant care, is not yours, and the brook with bubbling water like, but too expensive? We offer you a very simple and affordable solution – bed-stream.
The idea of flower beds-the brook the Idea of this is very simple – the plants have to simulate the water flow and look like a trickle. If the site is located on a slope, a brook can do a cascade, a waterfall.
You may also be interested flowerbed imitation of the other water facility, pools or pond? The principle of their design is similar to a trickle. Be sure, by such compositions nobody can pass indifferently.
All that will be needed for the beds stream Any stream needs somewhere to flow, that is, it must be the source. Of stones or wooden driftwood to build a small imitation of the well
Landscape designers working on projects of water features, particularly cascades, for water often use inverted the jug. Any of these ideas suitable for the design of the source.
If you decide to build the shed on the lawn in a puddle, can do this with any dishes whether it is a milk jug, a bowl or a wooden barrel.
The perfect backdrop for all of these songs will become the green of the lawn, colored wood chips and gravel backfill. On the background of flowering plants, povorotnyi, young planted in the form of a tape, will simulate flowing water.
The choice of plants for flower beds-For the stream bed-the stream chosen plants are undemanding, good tolerance to rain and drought, preserving attractive until late autumn. If your choice for flowering plants, flowering, they should be abundant and long
Cope well with the task marigolds, ageratum, alyssum, petunias, forget-me-nots, Lobelia, celosia, verbena, Phlox subulate. Simulating the flow of water, it is best to choose the types of plants that bloom blue and white flowers.
For flower beds, simulating spillage, plants can choose the different colors. Because you shed not only water but also milk, wine, juice...
In lieu of flowers, a trickle can create plants that are more expressive leaves than flowers – stahis, silver cineraria, Ajuga, Oxalis red, young, Sedum. Their nondescript flowers, so they do not spoil the overall picture, it is necessary to remove.
For Creek-cascade best suited basket and decumbent plants with long and flexible stems: dichondra silver, Lobelia, nasturtium, Petunia, cerastium.
The basis for the composition of flowerbeds-stream After place for flower beds-brook determined, it is necessary to select the plants that will simulate a Creek.
The work begins with the formation of the source stream. If the "water" will flow from the jug or pot, preferably the part of the pot, which should lie on the ground, to remove.
Jug put a hole formed on the ground. Then the plants can be planted so that it will give the impression that they grow out of the jar. It should be good to reinforce, especially if it is on a slope.
If the pot or pitcher you decided to lay in the supine position, and the vertical, then it is necessary to make drainage holes. Otherwise, they will gather water, which can rot the roots. If the weather is dry, plants in such containers must be watered.
For "stream", which will flow from the simulated well, the stones must be selected so that they are not washed away by rain. You could even seal the grout.
The formation of "channel" beds-the brook the Next stage is the formation of a riverbed. Clothes line and pegs are denoted by the Bank of the stream. Shovel gently take off the layer of sod.
If the stream is formed from the perennials so that they didn't expand outwards, the boundaries of the stream it is best to strengthen the special curb tape in green. It should protrude above the soil level of 2.5-3 cm In the formed channel add fertile soil and planted plants.
Having made the decision to install a tub vertically, it is still set at a slight angle to the ground. From the slope to the top and pour the soil and well we stamp it. At the foot of the tub is also formed hill. After that, the barrel, rammed in the ground sloping hill at the foot of the plant creeping or basket plant. Well pour the whole composition. The work has been completed.
Care for a flowering brook is exactly the same as for conventional flowerbed regularly watered and fed. It is necessary to take into account tip: somewhere in a corner or on the other flower bed to plant a few spare plants. If necessary they will replace damaged or dead plants in the flower bed of the stream.published
