Watering plants with water drizzling over them is a wrong way. In this case the plant, especially - the leaves will stay damp, so mold and other harmful processes may develop. You have to keep your plants dry, that's why watering the soil around is better.

Surely, water evaporates more quickly in a container garden, and if you have one - be ready to work more than in regular garden. Traders confirm the importance of the process. A hose can help you greatly here. If you have one - you can easily install not very expensive but effective automatic system for garden watering.

If you have neither a hose no money to buy it - there is another good option of two-liter bottle run into the soil. It's not perfect, but it works. It will hold your plants watered when you need to leave for a few days and nobody will keep an eye on them.

Now one should decide what they will grow. There are numerous crops, fitting for container type of garden and giving a rich harvest. Choosing one that is not worth to be grown is much more easier.

Container usually implies the lack of space, so a continual harvest(a few items got per crop) is your aim. Carrots, onions, beets and other roots don't fit as they can't give you more than one vegetable.

Tomato, cucumber and pepper fruits are ripening in different time, so you needn't gather them at once. And certainly productivity is higher. If you choose herbs - basil may become a good start. It doesn't make troubles when growing, needn't much space and sunlight.

Hanging Gardens

Knowledge of some secret for non-standard design solutions often makes very easy to bring to life each of them. The idea of ??creating room Hanging Gardens in the interior came to me for a long time, but the idea of ??how to implement it, came to me suddenly. Why do I have so many years of putting off until later this venture?

Consider a hybrid Hanging Gardens in an indoor space from Shirley more in my edenmakerblog.

The key point is in contrasting combinations of plants compositions. Fantastic purple begonia petals, philodendron with it's gentle tone salad leaves in a white and green stripes, similar to spiders.

Do Hanging Gardens of advantages in practical application

This is a great opportunity to combine 3 to 5 different indoor plants, despite their very different needs. Do not forget that each of them needs its own soil composition and different light intensity.

Large waterproof plastic saucer is one of the most important parts of my design. It replaces the traditional flower pots for my plants. Plate weighs considerably less, water does not drip onto the floor.

The secret is that the plants are not planted in the common ground. The underground part of each flower is located in its own mini-container filled with a suitable composition soil. Thus, the plant needs are met, and unusual combinations are pleasing to the human eye. A layer of moss makes underground pots invisible.

The ability to combine incompatible plant is not the only advantage of the Hanging Gardens Shirley. The design of extremely simple to maintain. Plants watering and repot when necessary becomes very convenient. You can easily remove from the composition plant that needs special care or lost attractive. In the room after this manipulation will not remain any traces of spilled water or land spills.
