Whether you live in a condo or a house and plan on redesigning your home it’s best to consider adding a little green into the picture.
Gardens are not just meant for houses with wide lawns. There are many kinds of gardens that will suit your personality, space and style. From aerial plants and decorative plants to terrariums, herbal and air-purifying plants. Although some may be confused as to which type of garden is best for their home, here are four garden themed ideas.
Asian-inspired Garden
Small indoor orchids, bamboos, and bonsai plants are one of the best plants to place around your home most especially when your home or unit area is enough for not more than 4 people. These plants were inspired from Chinese and Japanese homes as it helps create a balanced atmosphere in the home. These plants are ideal for homes with small spaces. Minimalist people consider having these plants because aside from having to have less maintenance, it also occupies less space yet gives your home that connection with nature.
Urban Garden
Urban streets and urban living also needs an urban jungle. Depending on your space, potted or boxed-type low maintenance plants are ideal for condominiums and small homes. Having a balcony can be the best area to station your plants so you wouldn’t hassle yourself spilling when maintaining them with water and sunlight. However, if you’re preference would be indoors, it’s best to have plants that would require less care and manageable. Keeping them near a window or wherever daylight is most present in your home.
Aerial and Vertical Garden
Some prefer to fill their floors but if you wish to have a different approach of your own unique home garden, hanging plants or a change of orientation can do the trick. Some aerial plants require less maintenance, it’s best to know which suits best for your routine or your style. A vertical garden is composed of unified or various plants placed up against a wall. This gives a clean and fixed presentation for your plants.
Edible Garden
For healthy living, you can grow your favorite edible greens in your garden. Edible herbs, flowers and vegetables can be planted in your garden for as long as you know how to maintain and care for them from time to time. This way it’ll be easier for you to plant and harvest your greens for that delicious fresh meal without having to run to the nearest market.
