A tour in the garden center!

31/05/2022 | Gardening, Inspiration

Let’s go to a garden shop? Why not!
Nothing is more relaxing and restoring than a trip to the garden.
A tour in a garden center is always a good idea at any time: during the weekend, in lunch breaks or after a work day 🌱

But what can we buy in a garden center, besides our Plastecnic pots?
Let’s consider that spring is advancing more and more and the summer season is coming soon. Heat and our next holidays are factors to take in consideration if we think about the good care of plants and flowers.
We have already talked about summer here but now let’s suggest you some practical advice.
Are you ready? 😁

1.Let’s choose succulents!
Succulents are a good solution because they do not require great care or attention in terms of water and light exposure.
Of course, we suggest you to avoid to place these plants on balconies or in your garden. We’d better choose smaller plants (if the space is not so big) because, especially in summer, our advice is to leave them indoors. The ideal position is in full light, but without direct exposure to the sun (it is also important to shelter them from any precipitation). We also remember that succulents should be watered only when the soil is almost dry. For example, let’s check with a finger that the soil is dry and compact, before proceeding.
So, what could we choose?
Let’s think of an aloe or the well-known haworthia fasciata: this plant is very well appreciated in the Mymood bowls, available in many sizes but above all in the colors we love most

 

2.A touch of color and Provence
If we love it, lavender is amazing in this period. The lavender flowers, with their characteristic blue-purple color, are ornamental and also have various properties. Thus, they make color and then, once the season is over, they can be collected, left to dry and used both to prepare infusions and to perfume cabinets and drawers.
IMPORTANT 👉 It is said that lavender leaves are able to keep mosquitoes away from your home. It is great! Isn’t it?
Well, we imagine your lavender in our MIDI Balcon boxes of the Terrae Collection … but also in other planters of our collections, what do you think?

 

 

 

3.Let’s color our balconies
Everyone loves them because they color and transmit us a good mood ❤️
Yes, we’re talking about the surfinias.
They are plants loved by everyone on the balconies, especially because they are blooming throughout the whole warm season.
The surfinias are an explosion of colors in all their beauty at this time of the year because from small plants with few leaves they become magnificent cascades of color in short time.
But be careful! There is one thing that surfinies always need: this is water! They need it in abundant quantity and constantly … so, during your holydays, ask your neighbors or some members of your family to take care of them!
The surfinias are perfect in Naturalia maxi planters or in Terrae Balcon boxes that also have iron supports.
If you wish to have even more flowers and plants, we suggest you petunias, geraniums, dipladenias, olive trees, photinia and pierris.

We wish you a good shopping and we’re waiting for your unboxing 🥰
