The most important tips for creating a blooming flower bed
A garden plot often forms an opinion about its owner. So, not a well-groomed area: beds completely covered with weeds, yellowed semi-withered vegetables in a dilapidated greenhouse - all this indicates the owner's disinterest in the summer cottage, about his excessive laziness and about the lack of striving for the beautiful and the beautiful. Therefore, any self-respecting gardener strives to create a blooming flower bed and plant paradise on his site with a huge harvest of berries and vegetables and, of course, lush beautiful flowers. And, of course, I want the flowers not to show off in the flower bed for several weeks, but to bloom and delight the eye throughout the summer season.
However, without following a number of recommendations, not a single flower, even the most weather-resistant and unpretentious in care, will flourish all summer.
It is necessary to water regularly your flower garden, while taking into account the weather conditions.

You also need remove weeds in a timely manner in the flowerbed. If you start this process, then the strong trunks of some types of weeds can simply crush and displace your delicate planted flowers.
Do not forget about pruning buds.that have faded long ago. Even one wilted bud not only looks unaesthetic and spoils the overall impression of your flower garden, but can also speed up the process of wilting of other buds.
Among other things you need to fertilize your flower bed... Nowadays, a rich assortment of gardening shops makes it possible to purchase any fertilizer suitable for your soil and type of flower.
Observing and not forgetting to follow the whole complex of these recommendations, you can preserve not only the beautiful appearance of the flower bed, but also grow healthy strong flowers to the envy of all neighbors.
If you can cope with caring for a flower bed by following simple rules, then in order to finally get on a flower bed not just a set of individual flowers, but a whole beautiful aesthetic composition, you need to work hard.
Here are some tips for how to maximize correctly and at the same time aesthetically recreate a blooming flower bed.
Even before planting flowers, you can make a plan of exactly which plants you want to see in the flowerbed and mentally imagine whether they will combine and come together into a single composition, blooming next to each other.
Then you need to create a flowering schedule your chosen plants, taking into account the characteristics and flowering time of each. Otherwise, instead of a lush blooming flower bed, you can get several already faded buds, around which there are bare stems, from which flowers are just beginning to open. This is not entirely aesthetically pleasing and does not at all correspond to the ideas of the unearthly beauty of a flower bed.
In the same regard, you can think about what colors will be present in your flower bed, they are combined with each other or in general create the appearance of a motley gaudy spot. It is worth considering the size of the flowers planned for planting. No matter how beautiful your favorite garden chamomile, for example, is, it will be lost from sight if bright tall lush asters grow in a circle around it.
But what if you want to see all your favorite flowers in the flower garden at once?
The way out is very simple. It is enough just to correctly arrange the flowers in the flower bed. So, if the flower bed is square or round in size and is visible from all sides, it is necessary to place flowers with high stems in the middle, and plant the smallest flowers closer to the edge.If your flower bed is one-sided, the tallest plants should be placed further, and the undersized ones, on the contrary, at the closest edge.
In all other respects, your imagination will help you, and the desire to please yourself, your neighbors in the garden and guests, a beautiful blooming flower bed, which (with just a little effort) can become the most important decoration of your garden plot.
