Enjoy a pleasant tropical garden surrounded by the beauty of fish pool. Green plants so refreshing. Murmur of flowing water soothing. This pond also makes the house more secure. Parks with a touch of natural ponds in the residence.
Besides the beauty of garden design, which is interesting there is the placement of the pool. The pool made along the inside fence. Placement of the pool was impressive hidden. From outside the fence, invisible if there is a swimming fish.
Impression of nature seen from the use of natural stone materials in the walls and floor of the pool, also the fence. Tropical plants, including lotus and drums, seemed fit to support the existence of strict lines of the pool. To complement the pool shaped “L” was made as wide as 80cm park. A four seater table set deliberately placed in one corner, as a center of activity in the park.
Although made pool along the fence, the park remains safe and relieved. The kids still have room to play and run. In fact, with the design of the pool like that, it turns out to support home security. Water pond behind the fence is effective in preventing unwanted guests jumped the fence and into the yard.Listen
One example of modern tropical garden try built from the X-oticGarden, in the backyard of a house. At the park, with a combination of tropical plants such as tabebuya, frangipani, banana, bamboo nejin, and orchids, with hardscape elements of modern nuances.
The design of this park is made by taking into account the desires of the home. Previously, the backyard was not ordered. Virtually in the form of an orchard, where in some corners of fruit trees planted sporadically. Seeing the garden, the owner was willing to make the park a more orderly, beautiful, and minimal maintenance.
As a landscape architect, Andie replied that the homeowner wishes to deliver a modern concept of tropical gardens. Try to offer modern elements such as the hardscape design. Swimming is made to follow a geometric pattern. L-shaped pool at the point of his elbow and placed a cylindrical water fountain, set in the back wall three meters high. Seeing the garden, the owner was willing to make the park a more orderly, beautiful, and minimal maintenance.
For Theresiana, garden on the roof of his house became a favorite place to spend the holiday with a relaxed and quiet, without distractions. The park is located on level five is the extent of ± 50m ². Garden area equipped with a polycarbonate roofed sitting area and a terracotta floor covered walls of exposed brick. Cover ground around the sitting room is closed mini elephant grass. Some fruit and vegetable crops propagation, tree-like Guava, Strawberry, Jackfruit mini, and Alamanda, are planted in pots, garden equip.
Being in the roof, this garden was very peaceful and calm atmosphere. No one if Theresiana happy to fill vacation time for reading in the garden ’secrets’ of this. Just need a bit of restructuring to make the atmosphere here more enjoyable and comfortable.
Seating area is equipped with two wooden chairs. To bring a more cozy atmosphere, terracotta floors covered with white fur rug. Woven fabric-covered seats are thick and soft, and comes with soft cushions.
Bed Tray, who pledged to put the tea table and some snacks, placed near one side of the chair. While the other side, there is a table lamp with a pyramid-shaped hood, which decorate the folding table.
With the addition of fresh flowers in aluminum tubes, created a new, more pleasant atmosphere in the roof garden. Spending time with the holiday very enjoyable read.
The remaining area on the side or rear of the house, can be transformed into a mini golf park. Like the existing parks in this photo. Park was built on an area of 15 square meters, in addition to the house. Initially, Jenny said, this land only in the form of elephant grass and a swimming fish, on one side.
Mini golf theme so choice is not without cause. Apparently as a hobby to play golf. So no longer the way to the golf club. Simply go to the park side, could satisfy a hobby, anytime. The design is also simple, do not use a lot of plants.
There are three holes (holes), who were each given marker number, just like in real golf course. Park also made green with grass and other plants around it. Plus sparkling pool water, so the more beautiful garden.
Although not a real golf course area, this park was still fun, and can familiarizing people

The idea behind this garden is to grow plants that can be experienced at night both through sight and smell. A moonlight or night garden contains primarily white or silver plants, as these colors reflect the most light and will glow in the light of the moon. Fragrant plants add to the allure, mystery, and enjoyment of these romantic gardens. Moonlight gardens are excellent ideas if you entertain in evenings, if you work by day so have little time then in the garden, or just want a space for meditation or relaxation.
Although this may be a recent trend, the concept is not. Centuries ago, white sand and pond moonlight meditation gardens were common in China. In 1639 the “Mahtab Bagh” (which means moonlight garden) was created for Shah Jahan in India. Moonlight or moon gardens became popular in America in nineteenth century New England.
When designing a moonlight garden, one of the first and perhaps most important considerations is location. Your garden needs to be placed where the moonlight will strike it. Walk around on a moonlit night to scout out possible sites. You need to avoid places where the trees will cast moon shadows. Think about where you plan to sit to enjoy your garden, whether it’s outdoors on the patio, or from your favorite armchair indoors, and choose a location where you can view it comfortably.
Something else to consider is indirect lighting for the nights when there is no moon. You might want to pick a spot where light from a house window or porch light will shine. Also you can install night lighting to illuminate your yard on cloudy nights. Inexpensive kits are readily available in many home and hardware stores, or you can find decorative ones in lighting stores.
Your garden spot also must get adequate sun, as most flowering plants require at least six hours of direct sunlight. For beds that will get less than five hours of sun, select shade-loving plants such as white impatiens, variegated hostas, white bleeding heart, and lungwort.
Maidenhair ferns are ancient plants. In that sense, the days of maidenhair ferns - which happened about 80 years-an - a long time ago. But until now, there are many people who are interested in caring for these plants. Maybe maidenhair ferns still preferred because green leaves can be soothing the eyes and the atmosphere.
However, it is not easy to take care of maidenhair ferns. These plants include ornamental plants are fussy maintenance. But all this fuss is going to paid off, as maidenhair ferns perfectly with the elegance expanded green leaves.
One of the main causes of failure in planting maidenhair ferns is the choice of media used. If not exactly maidenhair ferns growth will be hampered, even impossible not to die. This is because the root of maidenhair ferns form a soft fibrous roots. Tender roots are very sensitive to conditions too acidic, too dry or too moist.
Good Media
What kind of a good planting medium for maidenhair ferns? The characteristics of good media is the texture axis / crumbs, and the color is blackish-like compost. If measured with litmus paper, in humid conditions, the degree of acid (pH) reaches 6-7. If held, the media is good it will feel soft like a sponge, and if released will expand again as before held.
Raw material greatly affect the quality of maidenhair ferns growing media. Good media is usually made from chopped stems of ferns, humus from plants, or topsoil from bamboo leaves.
To increase fertility, the media can be added fertilizer. Based on the experience of several penghobi, a good fertilizer is manure from rabbits or sheep dung. If you add manure, make sure that the fertilizer used is completely “mature”. Mature here means the manure had been stored for more than 1 month (ideally stored for 3-6 months) so fermentation process is completely perfect. It could also be added to the mountain land (usually sold in the merchant plants with the name of “hollow earth”), rice husk (instead of sand, to obtain the texture axis / crumbs) and dolomite lime (to raise pH, if necessary).
Bad Media
Bad media, usually caused by an error compositiotn mixed. Here is an example of bad media following planting strategies for addressing them.
1. Planting Media too densely
Media color is not black. Usually occurs because the composition of the clay too much. Characteristic, if not soft and crushed if not re-inflate released. Such media can lead to root rot because it binds water so much that the media is too moist conditions for the roots of maidenhair ferns.
To fix it add sand / husk rice, humus, compost, and manure. Before mixed, the material was sifted first. Comparison mixture is 6 parts humus / compost, 2 parts manure, and 1 part padir / rice husk. Furthermore, this mix of media that will be corrected, with a ratio of 1 part mix and 1 part of the media.
2. Planting Media too axle / crumbs
Media like this has the potential to cause plant drought maidenhair ferns. Because, with grains that do not bind to each other and easily dispersed, water can not be stored properly.
Fix is to increase the density but not too dense. Mix the soil and manure dent in the ratio 1:1. Further into the media mix in the ratio of 1 part of medium and 1 part mixture.
3. Planting media not yet “ripe”
This kind of planting medium due to the material that had not yet finished fermentation. How to test it is to hold and smell. If it feels hot and the smell was not pleasant, it was a sign the media have not quite ripe.
Easy to handle, brown the media used. Way, insert the media into a sack and store in a cool place for about a month. Do not forget to punch the bag as a means of entry of air to the fermentation process can take place perfectly.
4. Planting Media too acidic
If the media is too acidic (measured with litmus paper gives the figure below pH 6.0) inhibited the growth of maidenhair ferns can even die because of poisoning elements Fe, Mg, and Al.
To reduce the acidity of the media, add dolomite lime. However, this addition should not at once but bit by bit, so that the plants are not surprised by the sudden change in pH. Ideally, the increase amounted to 0.5 - 1.0 per week. Raising the pH of these actions can be repeated every week to obtain the ideal level of acidity / neutral (near pH 6.2). To raise the pH of 0.5 - 1.0 to 2 tablespoons dolomite lime every 3 kg of media.
By knowing where the media is good and what is bad, necessarily failures in planting maidenhair ferns can be avoided.
Petunia (Petunia Sp.) Which is a seasonal crops this will brighten your garden with flowers in abundance. Petunia flower colors may range from pink, dark purple, baby pink, red, and white. Even today there is a single petunia flowers in two colors.
High maximum that can be achieved by this plant is 30 cm. Petunia needs a fertile growing media and soil. Media planting a mixture of soil, compost, and manure is very suitable for petunias.
Petunia classified as a diligent flowering plants. He needs lots of sunlight but not like the rain water spray. So she should be planted in a location that has shade or planting should be done in the dry season.
