Choosing Plants

69制片厂制作传媒� Choose plants well-suited for your specific growing conditions. Knowing your growing zone is important, however you should also be mindful how conditions like sun exposure can change as you move around your yard.

69制片厂制作传媒� Choose the right size plants for the space. Bear in mind that what you69制片厂制作传媒檙e planting today is much smaller than what it will be once it69制片厂制作传媒檚 matured. Always read a plant69制片厂制作传媒檚 care label to understand its optimal growing conditions and size at maturity.

69制片厂制作传媒� From a design perspective, think in terms of texture, layers and drifts. When addressing the overall texture of your planting beds, choose plants that vary in form, size, color and leaf structure. This will create greater interest, and a space that69制片厂制作传媒檚 more visually appealing and enjoyable to spend time in.

For a lush look, think in terms of layers when considering composition. Much like in a painting, you should have background, middle ground, and foreground layers. Your background layer should consist of taller evergreen shrubs to provide something alive and green to look at all year long, no matter what69制片厂制作传媒檚 happening in front of them. Your middle ground layer should be lower than the background layer to create interest, and is where you can add a contrasting evergreen shrub or pop of color with a perennial plant. Finally, your foreground layer should help transition the planting beds to your lawn space. You can accomplish this with smaller perennials, evergreens, annuals or creeping ground covers.

When addressing drifts, read the plant labels to know how large they69制片厂制作传媒檒l grow. This can help ensure plants grow in together as they mature, but are not overcrowded.

Installing Them

1. Dig a hole that69制片厂制作传媒檚 about two times the diameter of the pot your plant69制片厂制作传媒檚 being transplanted form, and about the depth of the pot.

2. Mend in compost or soil conditioner to give your plant the organic material it needs to thrive. If you69制片厂制作传媒檇 like, add slow-release fertilizer, and mix well.

3. Place your plant in the hole, making sure that it sits at, or just above, the level it did in the pot.

4. Backfill with soil, stopping to add water when the hole is about halfway full.

5. Fill the rest of the hole with soil, then firmly press down.

6. Soak your plant with more water.

7. Finish by adding mulch, making sure it69制片厂制作传媒檚 pulled away from the base of your plant.
