Spending a spring afternoon in your garden, surrounded by beautiful flowers, feeling the warmth of the sun, is definitely one of the most pleasant things ever. I’m going to show you today how to create an amazing atmosphere in your garden, being smart and saving money.
Flowers! There is nothing like a garden full of colorful flowers. In my opinion, the best plants to get are the perennial ones. Why? Because not only do they look great, but they last at least two years. Perennial plants resist every season, and you can be sure that if you get them this spring, they will be blossoming the next one too.
Here are some of my favorite choices:
The first one, called Rudbeckia Laciniata ‘Goldquelle’, stands out for its intense dark yellow blooms. Their size is 3 1/2 inch, and they begin flowering in midsummer lasting until well into fall. Butterflies find these flowers extremely attractive, so your garden would be full of them. Perennial Plants – Black-Eyed Susan ‘Goldquelle’ – only $6.95
My second choice is this amazing Blanket Flower Collection. It includes three different varieties of flowers: Burgundy, Arizona Sun and The Sun. Their long-lasting 4-inch blooms can make any garden look full of life because of their brilliant colors: the wine red of the Burgundy, the reddish orange of the Arizona Sun and the strong bright yellow of The Sun. It’s very easy to take care of this plants since they resist any kind of weather. Perennial Plants – Blanket Flower Collection – $19.95
Now, what do you think about fountains? I personally love them!
As soon as I thought about garden decorations, I knew a fountain had to be included. Picture setting all this plants with their beautiful flowers making a circle, and placing in the middle this stone water fountain, that works with solar energy. It would look totally classy and it would bring beautiful birds into your garden!
Let me tell you another great thing about it: The sound of the falling water is relaxing, so it would definitely help to create the atmosphere I told you about before.
