Happy gardening!

Gardening is a very relaxing and therapeutic hobby , also cooking can make me happy :D

mini garden stacker.. hmmm where to get it?

Mini Garden for a Limited Space.If you can create a garden which you can easily maintain, you can give your home a new look by creating your own mini-garden.

Where to put it. If your house does not exactly have space which is big enough for extreme gardening then you can just buy frames. But first you have got to find yourself an area in your house that is level, well-drained, and sunny. That’s where you can place your frames for your mini-garden.


Some thoughts...

The matter of fact is a lot can be done whether you are staying in a terrace house, apartment or condominium; it's a must for you to exploit every corner and space you got in the verandah, patio, balcony, window frame, car porch, and the side of the house or in-front of the house.

  1. One simple way is to plant in a container made of plastic, terracotta, fiber, or woods which are easily available in the supermarket nearby. You can do your own planters using weather-resistance wood. The size is 25 cm width x 100 cm length x 17.5~25 cm depth. Fill up the box with a mixture of fertilized soil. Install it to the window frame or the verandah hall.
  2. Planting in a potted container, planters or vase enable you to make changes swiftly and easy to manage. Choose one corner for an example at the verandah to design your desired landscape. If you like water feature, put terracotta vase with wide mouth on top of a high vase as a base. Or just buy multi-level vase in a DIY store. Ensure that water pump doesn't produce so much noise that disturbs your neighbors.
  3. Don't think that garden design can only be done in an open space but not in a narrow hallway on a balcony of an apartment. You can design a garden based on Tropical or Contemporary Garden.
