For many Australians, their love affair with Bali is a life-long commitment. So it’s not very surprising that so many yearn to recreate just some of that lushness in their own backyards. But to capture the essence of the traditional Balinese garden, you need to look at it from a Balinese perspective.“Balinese look at gardens differently,” says Kerry Davies of Bali Gardens. “For the Balines
Complete your garden with style Garden Finials, statues and weather vanes are all a great way to complete the look to your outdoor home.

The most important aspect of planning is to provide enough space in the garden or pot for herbs, as they tend to flourish in organized environments. Since they can grow well under harsh conditions as well their growth increases under good conditions. For instance, Yarrow can spread over large areas, Chives get bushy and condensed and Lavender will spread all over. If they are given about a foot of space between each section, most will grow well. For instance, if you want your Chives to grow well, since they grow in a bunch, their roots will compete with neighboring plants for water and nutrients, if too close to them.Since herbs require a lot of sunshine, sufficient space in and around them needs to be provided so that all parts get sufficient sunlight. Planting too many in clusters will p

Spent a few days in Winnipeg last week. Depressing place. We lived there over 4 years ago and I haven't visited since. Nothing had changed. If a city could be going through a clinical depression, this would be the best example of it. Sad and with no hope to rise above mediocracy. Garden Corner, Ink on Paper. Speaking of mediocracy, here is a sketch I did no the plane. Nothing much, just a picture to go with a post :)
Having your own property is not only a luxury but a responsibility and as such you should keep it in optimal condition and attractive at all times. Besides the physical aspect of your house the other important part one should never overlook is the landscaping work, you could hire someone to do it for you or you could do it yourself. In most cases property owners end up hiring someone to do the job but this is not cost effective. Learning how to do these tasks yourself provides great satisfaction because all the work has been done exactly how you wanted. In order to get things done the right way you need to own at least the most basic set of garden tools unless you intend to visit your neighbor every time you need to do some yard work. Garden tools can be acquired at your local hardware st

Mulch Your Garden with Junk Mail [Recycling] A reader at frugal finance blog Get Rich Slowly suggests shredding your junk mail and using it to mulch your garden. To avoid killing your garden with inks and metals leeching off the shredded paper, the author uses the following guidelines: I only shred the non-glossy stuff, and try to avoid colored ink as much as possible. Since I'm shredding to avoid identity theft in the first place, and credit applications these days contain colored ink, I can't stay 100% black and white, but I can accept that.I shred plastic items like credit cards and CDs separately and discard.I only use the shreds where food is not grown, just to be safe.

Dream you are in a garden. Beautiful flowers abound and flourish. A bench beckons across from a babbling pond. Fish flutter through the water while birds flutter above. A cobblestone path leads to an opening in the trees. And you nestle in on a rope swing with that morning cup of coffee. A beautiful dream.But, does the garden gate match the dream? A garden gate should allure your guests in. The garden gate is the enchanting entryway. It suggests the mystery that lies beyond. ‘Whatever that mystery may be’. Passersby stop to ponder what could possibly be behind such a beautiful garden gate. So create your own mystery with the perfect garden gate.Be creative with wood and hardware.

I made my very first garden when I was six in a small corner at the end of my grandmother's garden. It was a small patch, not more than six rows by 10 plants long, but it was MINE, with the flowers I picked and the dirt that I dug. And I knew that it was mine when Nana helped me put up the sections of wire fencing that set it off from HER garden.Garden fencing can serve many purposes, but one of the best is to accent and define areas of your garden. Whether you choose a six or twelve inch high border edging, or stand a section of post and rail garden fencing in the center of a sweep of lawn, garden fencing can add a beautiful accent to your landscaping. Take a look at some novel, unusual ways to use garden fencing to make your garden a showplace that will be the envy of the neighborhood.Wo
To keep them working garden tools require very little maintenance. If you keep them clean and sharpened and lubricate them well they can last a long time. Here's what to do to keep your garden tools like new.Remove dirt and mud from tools after each use.Remove rust and worn paint from metal parts of tools with a wire brush.You can use a 3-5 gallon bucket filled with about three gallons of sand. Add a quart of used motor oil. After use, plunging your tools into this sand-oil mixture will keep them well lubricated.Use a silicone spray or lubricant such as WD40 to coat exposed metal parts of the tools after each use and especially before extended storage. At the end of each season before storage a coating of linseed oil on wooden handles would help prevent dry rot and preserve the quality of
When I was a child, I used to love going out with my Dad and puttering around in the garden. There were always lots of cool tools to play with. Shovels, rakes, forks - all great fun for a young boy in the dirt! Now that I'm grown up, I should probably have grown out of that but those garden tools are still lots of fun...There are hundreds of different garden tools, a fact that a visit to your local garden center will confirm. There are many different prices as well and the trick is to know what you need to buy without going overboard and spending a fortune.The first tool you'll need is a spading fork. This tool looks like a pitchfork, but the handle is shorter and the tines of the fork are spaced wider apart. This tool will be used to dig into hard soil and loosen it up to prepare for plan
When spring has sprung, and it's time to get out into the garden, it's a great time to introduce your youngster to the joy of gardening. It's a bug that naturally take root in a young child, and many gardeners will recall the time they spent as a little one in the company of their parents, digging in the early spring, dropping seeds into the earth impatiently hoping for immediate yields, and the ultimate joy of helping the harvest, perhaps eating as many strawberries or cherry tomatoes in the garden as managed to find their way back to the house.However, with toddlers and youngsters the ability to use typical garden tools is limited. Not only is the size a problem for their small hands, but there can be some real potential to harm themselves with the sharp edges and sheer weight of many to

Planing building a garden pond? Don't know how to start? What kind of material to use? Here is a simple and fast guide that can provide you all the answers, so you can start right away.Decide the type of garden pond construction Depending on the purpose, you should decide how deep and how big your garden pond would be. This is a critical decision to make since you cannot simply change the size and depth of your garden pond the moment it is finished.To determine the size, shape, and depth of your pond consider the number and the kind of marine life and aquatic plant you will put in. You may want to read specific articles that instruct you the right size of pond for a particular fish.Select your location. Garden pond can improve the beauty of your garden and at the same time, can attract di
Garden benches can be made of a number of materials ranging from natural to man made materials and so the price too varies on the materials being used. Apart from the materials used, the prices are also dependant on the size, shape, additional features and finish of the garden benches.Prices are usually high for garden benches that have a lot of handiwork involved. If they are relatively simple pieces, prices are not as high. Simple wood benches are the least expensive benches, however if the quality of wood used, is extremely good then prices may shoot up. If the garden benches are made of materials other than wood like sandstone or concrete, or for that matter wrought-iron then the prices tend to be a little on the higher side.For elaborately carved out concrete, sandstone or marble gard
Okay, so you have spent hours upon hours creating the perfect garden. You have chosen only the choicest flowers, agonized for days over their placement, and even bought that much too expensive antique statue to set it all off. Now that it is finished, you know that you have created something truly special, something that is unique, and a place in which you could see yourself relaxing after a long, hard day.The only problem is: There is nowhere to sit and relax, no vantage point from where you can absorb the peace and beauty that all of your hard work has brought you. Do you know what you need? A garden bench.Garden benches are the perfect accessory for any garden because they can be inviting, entertaining but unobtrusive at the same time. They can be beautiful in a cozy arrangement of outd

We got our new patio backyard landscaped this week. Following the rules of our homeowners association, working with limited space and with conservation in mind, below is what we came up with and had installed by professionals. It was a slight deviation from our original plan. It now includes Jasmine vines, an African Sumac tree and Texas Privet and Hawthorne shrubs. Not too bad. We may add more in the future.

Consider the main benefit of a garden deck, this is that you can enjoy your garden and outdoor area while still being connected to your house, without garden decks you would have to appreciate your garden from a distance.
