Check out this video about water garden:


Now everyone can enjoy a water garden, even if you only have a balcony to enjoy outdoor living. Scott Rhodes, director of product marketing for Aquascape, highlights how easy it is to create a container water garden with the Aquascape Aquatic Patio Pond.

I would like to cover my back yard with a rock garden or with some kind of stone, and also have a pond or fountain somewhere in the mix. Any ideas, websites, photos, suggestions? Thank you.

I need some information as to which plants and flowers are good for this type of garden. I would like a nice variety of colour and smells with little maintenance if this is possible?

I very mush like the date palm so i want this in the middle of an almost square garden.

Create An Elegant Ambience With Outdoor Garden Fountains

A garden is generally a very personal space and the size and plan of a garden are a matter of personal choice. While some people might be content with a small lawn adjoining their property, there are others for whom extensive gardens are a way of life. No matter what your tastes run into there is no denying the fact that outdoor garden fountains can add charisma to all kinds of gardens. Outdoor garden fountains can add immense visual appeal to any garden, but that is not their only advantage. The sound of flowing water in your backyard can be very relaxing and can calm frayed nerves.

Outdoor garden fountains come in varying shapes and sizes. Some people might like these to be the centerpiece of their garden creating an ambience for the rest of the space. However, there are others who prefer outdoor garden fountains with subtle designs that can integrated with the rest of the elements of the garden. Such small garden fountains can add immense character to your garden and provide a very soothing effect.

Outdoor garden fountains are made of various materials.  Wood, sandstone, granite, cast stone and quite a few other varieties can be easily found in the market. All of these have their own charm and can suit the various individual tastes. However, cast stone fountains are one of the most popular outdoor garden fountains. These come in very large sizes as well as relatively smaller ones. For those of you looking for elegance combined with utility cast stone fountains are the obvious choice. These come in really classy designs and can provide your garden with a very stately appearance.

If you are planning to make your garden fountain the main focus of the entire garden then opting for a large cast stone fountain is a great idea. Cast stone fountains can impart a very upscale feel to the most average of gardens. These have the added advantage of being extremely durable and resilient to weather changes. Cast stone fountains are not mere garden equipment which can be bought lightly, these are pieces of art which will be in your family for years to come. It is important to do your home work before investing in cast stone fountains. The scope of individualizing these fountains is endless, for the art lovers out there intricately carved cast stone fountains can appease both their artistic as well as aesthetic appetite.

Outdoor garden fountains come in various shapes. Multi tiered fountains are great for the more conservative people out there while the neo twin bowl and other such funky designs are great for the more contemporary tastes.

Lastly installing these pieces of art in your garden can be an amazingly fulfilling exercise. With an hour of effort the modern fountains can be up and running. Cast stone fountains generally come with a book of instructions which makes it possible for the most novice gardener to install them on their own. However, it has to be remembered that like every other aspect of gardening the installation of fountains is also an exercise that is best accomplished with creativity and patience.

How do I create a wetland garden?

We live on a lake in Michigan and I want to start planning a wetland garden. We have an area by the lakeshore that is always mushy, so I’d like to embrace mother nature and plant a wetland garden in this area that will look better than muddy grass. And I would hope this area would improve drainage in my yard. How much maintenance does this type of garden require? What mulch or other bedding material would be best? The area is probably 30 ft long by 5-8 feet.

Use The Right Landscape Equipment To Create Your Perfect Garden

If you are thinking about landscaping, you may well be wondering just what equipment you will need in order to help you. By providing yourself with the right equipment, you will enable yourself to do the job a lot faster and it will also make things an awful lot easier too. So, if you do have a lot of ideas as to what to turn your garden into, always ensure that you do purchase the right equipment for your needs.

The Landscape Equipment You Will Need

There are various types of landscape equipment which you are likely to need. The first being garden tools. Things such as a rake, a shovel and spade and shears will really help you when it comes time to do all aspects of landscaping. They are basic tools which every keen gardener should have and you can buy them readily from garden centers and even online.

Other equipment which you will need is the actual materials which you are going to use. For example, if you have decided to use gravel you are going to need to have gravel on hand. Stones are also readily available and they can really help to spruce up the garden where you can use them as borders, small walls as well as walkways.

Another common material you will need includes plants. Now plants are the basis of most gardens and they really do add that little extra something. Adding color, class and homeliness, you really cannot go wrong with a few plants in your landscape. Just make sure that you know exactly what it is those plants need before you purchase them otherwise you could end up with something which is really high maintenance. Obviously you will need a spade to help you plant the flowers and a watering can to help you water them.

If you do want to build a small wall, as well as stone or bricks you will also need some cement in order to keep them stuck together. If you do not build the wall properly it could be a safety hazard and you could potentially end up having an accident. You can buy cement and anything else which you need form local garden centers.

Overall there are various materials which you will need and you should really purchase them before you start landscaping. Landscape equipment is fairly reasonably priced and they can be found in garden centers local to you.

About Orchid Lights, Sunlight and Artificial Light

When caring for orchids one of the essential orchid needs that you should attend to is providing sufficient light. You can provide your orchids with either natural sunlight or artificial light. As a matter of fact, providing light to your orchid simulates the lighting of the natural habitat in tropical forests where the illumination is quite soft. Thus, exposing an orchid to direct light should be avoided.

There are a number of reasons why you should consider garden ponds as part of your landscaping ideas and one of them is the added beauty it gives to your garden or yard. When you are considering a pond for your garden, you may want to consider a fish pond for such a project. This kind of pond will not only give your garden the kind of beauty it needs in terms of an added body of water for variation to the landscape, it also adds some living creatures that are colorful and soothing to watch in your garden.

When you want to incorporate a fish pond into your landscaping plans, you will need to think about a lot of things that are associated with creating this addition to your garden. Since garden ponds need to be able to mix well with the landscaping ideas that you have for your garden, you will need to consider first what kind of a pond you will create and what materials you will want to use for such a pond. For example, if your garden is somewhat Japanese inspired, you may want to create a pond that jives with such an idea like a pond lined with rocks. If you have a rustic garden idea, your pond may need to coincide with such a plan as well. Creating ponds that are in tune with what your garden is supposed to look like or what kind of a garden you already have will help create that unified look and appeal you will want for your garden.

Some of the ideas you can use when you are looking for ideas for garden ponds to incorporate into your own little green world include ponds with waterfalls, ponds with bridges over them, and even ponds with fountains. Not all of these are easy to make or build by yourself and you may need to ask for a professional’s help in installing some of the other features of such ponds. Some of these pond ideas are not that ideal for a fish pond too so you may need to ask some advice from fish pond experts near you if your ideas for your garden pond may be used for having fish in them as well.

When you have decided on a design for your pond from the many different ideas for garden ponds you can choose from, you can either decide to make the pond yourself or have someone build it for you. You will need to estimate the budget for building it yourself and the amount of work it would take for you to build it. You will also need to draw plans yourself or have someone help you do this and to come up with the list of materials to buy for such a plan. While having someone build your fish pond for you may seem easier to do, it will cost you a lot of money and if you do not have a lot of money to spend on your pond but you still want your pond, you will do better if do this yourself.

Find out how garden ponds can become a wonderful fish pond when you want them to.

How to Create a Deck Garden

An important incentive for gardening is the pure pleasure it brings but there are other very practical reasons for planting a deck garden around the perimeter of this outdoor living space. Mixed plantings hide the deck’s framework and the empy often weed filled space underneath. Plantings enhance the look of a deck whether it is high off the ground or at ground level.


Even with a deck with one end at ground level and the other end several feet off the ground, the height of the plants around it can be adjusted. In beds along the side where the deck is at ground level the tallest plants can reach to just above the top of the railing. Toward the higher end larger shrubs and small trees that mature from 10 to 20 feet can form the backbone of the planting.


In both cases the tallest plants are next to the base of the deck with a shorter mix of perennials, ground covers, bulbs, annuals, herbs and roses placed out toward the edge of the bed where they can be seen and enjoyed better.


Replacing grass around the base of the deck has the added advantage of less maintenance. Getting rid of grass eliminates the aggravating, time consuming chores of mowing and trimming grass and weeds around the deck supports. Plantings also do a good job of blocking the base of a deck and cutting down the amount of light underneath it. This effectively hides and reduces the growth rate of weeds that might grow there.


In addition installing edging strips along the perimeter of the beds along the deck keeps grass separate from ground covers. This method helps to cut down on weeding and reduces the need for trimming since these strips leave a single clean edge to mow. Some homeowners prefer the more formal, tidy appearance of edging strips. This is basically a matter of personal taste.


The process of actually creating flower beds to surround the deck does not differ much from designing plantings for other parts of the yard. Sometimes it is simply a matter of selecting the right plants to convert an idea already in mind into a reality. In some cases the conditions of the site place restrictions on what can be done. In rocky soils, the soil generally has to be prepared first before a decision is made as to how the plantings will be arranged.


There is no one approach to the task of deck garden design. The homeowner can design the plantings on paper, select the plants and install them. A garden designer can be hired to complete the entire job. Another possible option is to hire a nursery or designer to select and install some of the deck garden but leave lots of room in the bed for the addition of more perennials, annuals, bulbs and other plants by the homeowner.


In the initial stage of designing a deck garden it is very important to become familiar with the site. Its soil, exposure and shade and sun patterns need to be taken into account. Then the plants must be matched to the site. Any plants should be chosen because they thrive in the existing conditions and will inevitably grow better, require less maintenance and experience fewer problems with diseases and pests.


Study closely the shade and sun patterns that affect the deck. Make note on the garden plan which areas never get direct sun and which sites get sun or shade for only half the day and at what times.


Consider how the prevailing winds affect the deck site. On a windy site a windbreak of some sort will make planting easier to manage and make the deck more comfortable to use. A mixed planting of evergreens, deciduous trees and shrubs is most effective for wind protection. Another option is a fence which can be a quick solution but provides less protection from the wind.


Become aware of the direction that the site faces. Areas that face south are generally warmer but are more exposed especially in the winter. Since sites facing east recieve morning sun and afternoon shade, they are usually cooler than those facing west which are sunny in the afternoon when temperatures are higher.


Check soil conditions by digging test holes. Soil can be improved by adding organic matter, double digging and mulching. However it is a better idea to start a deck garden with plants that will thrive in the existing soil. Over time the soil can be improved to accomodate a wider range of plants. Building stone walls or raised beds and planting shallow rooted ground covers are practical techniques to deal with rocky soil.


Techniques for developing the shape of a deck bed vary. Working on paper to experiment with the best size and shape of beds around the deck can work. A hose or long rope outlining the shape of the bed on the ground is another alternative. Sprinkling flour around the perimeter of the bed works effectively also.


Another option is to outline the bed shape with a series of stakes and a length of string. The trick is to examine the proposed shape from up on the deck as well as out in the yard. Consider whether the shape manages to accomplish what is wanted. Beds that are wider than 3 feet allow the enjoymnet of some of the plants for people while seated and create the feeling that the deck is surrounded by vegetation.


All that remains to do is make the final deck bed shape and do the actual planting work. The end result will be a deck garden that will enhance the beauty of the entire backyard and become an integral part of the entire landscape design where the house, the deck and the garden are linked.
