Native Plant Wish List For Your Northern Garden

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Sadly winter has come. The earth is frozen. What is a garden landscaper to do? The only thing left for an obsessed gardener to do is make a wish list of things to plant in the summer. Some plants that should be on any northern gardeners wish list are these mid west natives: Coneflower, Black-eyed Susans, Moonbeam Coreopsis and False Indigo. Why use native plants? Choosing a native plant not only helps the wildlife in your garden, but saves water, time and money.

Any garden will benefit from the addition of the native plant Coneflower(Echinacea). Mother nature approves of this pink lady because of the food she provides in your garden. It looks lovely when planted with other native plants and some ornamental grasses and some carpet roses. This plant’s roots are well adapted to dry weather and clay soil. It will reseed itself and spread in a friendly and non aggressive manner. This is with out any doubt one for the “honey dew” list.

Black-eyed Susans are one of the best native flowers you can plant. Black-eyed Susan or Rudebeckia is an abundant blooming yellow daisy like flower that is just gorgeous. These lovely native perennials will add dramatic effect to your landscape for years to come. These native plants are like a natural bird feeder in your landscape. These natives grow and spread quickly and will soon be quite wondrous to behold. Due to their drought tolerant nature and their sun/shade affinity they are quite versatile. Your garden will thank you if you add even just one of these plants to the landscape.

Moonbeam Coreopsis is enchanting with its delightful little flowers. It is one of the few perennials that is blooming prolifically in the fall when just about every other plant has finished blooming. The unique yellow of this flower is a welcome change from the yellow orange one sees everywhere. This light and airy upright native adds a touch of charm to any garden. Moonbeam coreopsis will go the distance in your garden. Coreopsis is considered a desirable native plant because of its drought tolerance, bountiful flowers and it’s ability to thrive in clay or poor soil.

A garden that needs more blue flowers should include the native plant called False Indigo(Baptisia). Experienced gardeners know that blue flowers are hard to come by. You can’t go wrong with this brilliant blue native. This native can be a little tricky to get established because of it’s deep root system. This native is hardly dull with its fabulous blue flowers. Partial shade, full sun, drought, flood, and clay will not stop this wondrously adaptable native flower.

Any garden would be improved by these lovely plants. They continue to look good and contribute to your garden even after they are done blooming. A touch of ornamental grass, some recycled glass gazing globes and some cool garden decor and your wish list is complete!

Mulch Alternative? Try Ground Cover

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

One of the problems that a new northern landscape may encounter is a lack of plant material to fill the landscape with. A new garden can be a little sparse sometimes as you wait for the young plants to mature-which can take about three years when you live in a northern climate. Plant some ground cover! The more the merrier. Use ground cover to help fill in between plants, fountains and garden decor, or around stepping stones.
Before you start planting just anything you need to choose your ground cover based on the light, water, and traffic conditions in your garden. These are some great ground cover suggestions to fit just about any northern garden need.
A full sun garden will benefit from some sedum. It comes in a variety of color shades and growth habits. Sedum is a good choice for a sunny slope with poor soil conditions. Sedum is used on “green roofs” which are very inhospitable to highlight the kind of conditions it can take: hot, dry and horrible. Hot, hot and hot! Sedum is not a good choice if it is going to get stepped on.
Another good choice for a sunny garden with a path and some stepping stones, is the kitchen herb called thyme. It is good for an area that gets a lot of foot traffic, such as a path, because of it’s aromatic qualities. Your garden will have an English Cottage feeling with this kitchen herb that comes in many different varieties to suit your needs…there are so many types.
Pachysandra can be a great ground cover for your shady landscape. Pachysandra is a good deep shade ground cover that can handle some partial sun. Pachysandra is a good choice under a walnut tree which can be difficult to plant under. It has a neat growth habit that is easy to control.It is less intrusive than vvinca, another popular ground cover choice.
If you are a fan of native or woodland plants and your are looking for a shade loving ground cover consider wild ginger. Wild ginger has attractive dark verdigris and round leaves that forest critters love to hide under because of the ground hugging flowers. Plant it around the base of a bird feeder to hide the cast off seeds. There are even some evergreen varieties for more mild climates.
Whether you have shade or sun a ground cover is always going to enhance your garden landscape. They cover up all the ugly areas in your landscape and also improve the health of existing plants by shading their roots. Harmonize your landscape with ground cover. Put some gazing balls in a patch of ground cover for an easy garden decoration idea and just enjoy!

Having A Closer Look At Your Flower Bulbs

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

After a long winter there is nothing more lovely than a spring garden with decorative garden decor (glass gazing balls are a great addition). That spring bloom can be much more beautiful by following this easy tip.

I’m going to suggest that you go ahead and plant your bulbs and ground phlox first thing in the fall. You
should also put some bulb fertilizers into each hole as you plant the bulbs-and watch to
how far down the store explained to plant. I’ve found that you should usually try to put plant bulbs in groups of odd numbers
scattered about in such a way as that other plants will hide their greenery as the bulbs begin to
wither. If you go about loosey-goosey style spreading them out to and fro, they tend to make a pretty
home look haphazard and messy
.

In the spring after your daffodils and tulips have all bloomed it is important to not cut
out all the foliage
. It may look unsightly, but cutting it away will hinder your bulbs from
blooming next year. If you will take the patience to let it yellow, it will likely pull out or cut off easier
enough. In fact if it does not pull out of the ground easily then it is not ready to be cut
away or removed. All of the remaining greenery will be making nutrients for the following seasons blooms. Try to just
ignore them until they are truly wilted and yellow.

It is also a good idea to put down some bulb fertilizer in the fall and spring over the areas where you have them planted. Doing this proves to keeps your flower bulbs happy from time to time. Daffodils are a good bulb choice as deer and squirrels seem fairly uninterested in them and
they slowly multiply year after year.

Tulips can be a disappointment!

After a few years they tend to stop blooming or the squirrels have stolen them or the deer have eaten them-they just kind of disappear.

Grape hyacinth and scilla are both lovely small purple flower bulbs, but they can spread to the
point of proving hinderance to your landscape…and, as you can probably guess, you should want to keep this in mind if introducing them. Be sure to have some recycled glass gazing balls and other decorative garden decor too!

The most important thing to remember for a spring garden is you have to get it started in the fall…just another reason why planning ahead is a big part of gardening.

Candy’s Garden Oasis Plus: Site for Unique Lawn Garden Decor

Friday, November 20th, 2009

I promised myself to have a big garden and lawn once I have my own family and home since I grew up in a small and cramped space. I consider myself extremely fortunate by being able to meet the goals in my life. First, I have a wonderful husband and a two-year old baby girl. Next to that, Me and my husband got to purchase a small home with a big garden that have added more happiness. In my line of work (I am a painter by the way) a huge garden is a source of my inspiration and joy. Catching butterflies and playing in the garden with us are things my little girl love to do along the side. I decided to decorate our garden myself since we do not have that much money for a landscape architech and besides, I have an eye for design. Garden Decorations

I realized that one of the hurdles in decorating one’s own garden is finding the right lawn garden décor that fits one’s specifications and liking. Although there are many garden stores near our neighborhood, I feel that the garden furniture and lights that are available in them are quite common. I like an elegant garden to be appreciated favorably by my friends. Since I also sell some of my paintings on the Internet, I decided to look for beautiful outdoor decoration suppliers online as well. There are quite a number of online stores and I know that it would not be hard for me to find one that would suit my needs. Garden Gift

After long hours of search, I found Candy’s Garden Oasis Plus. Compared to the other websites I have come across with, I like the assorted products they offered. I want to see selections of decorations and furniture as I consider myself as a very picky customer. I was really overwhelmed by just looking through Candy’s Garden Oasis Plus to find remarkable diversities of decors. I purchased the green playful birds strawberry pot and several “Grow” stepping stones and situated them all over my garden. I am also planning to get the country apple plant stand and the Guardian Angel Sun catcher next month.

Aside from having beautiful lawn garden décor, I also love Candy’s Garden Oasis because the price of their products is very affordable. Buying from their special section would mean more savings for you. Lawn Garden Decor
