Hanging flower baskets – to add colours to the landscape around your home

Hanging flower baskets add attention to your homes. You may have a number of hanging flower baskets near the entrance to your home, adding welcoming colour along the walkway to your door.

The hanging flower baskets will make your house stand out in your neighbourhood. Especially if the other houses are bricks and dull lawns. The colours presented by flowers in full bloom, hanging in mid-air are a sight to behold.

Have you ever noticed homes that stand out in the neighborhood? I mean the houses that you walk by or drive by and have to take a second look. Have you stopped to consider why these homes attract attention?

It usually has to do with the way they have landscaped the yard. I find that it does not matter if the home is valued at a modest price or high price, if the yard is well cared for it attracts attention.

A well cared for and attention grabbing yard usually incorporates the use of flowers for color. Some people use flowering bushes or shrubs with varied foliage. Other people use containers of flowers on their steps or along a walk way. Other people will choose hanging flower baskets to bring color to the front of their home.

Indoor Gardening and adding colour and variety to your home

Indoor gradening can include a variety of flowers and herbs and other plants that grow indoors. You may have a small herb garden on your window sill and use the herbs for your salads. Fresh, delicious and available whenever you want to spice up your salad.

You can grow African Violets and Begonias flowering plants indoors. In fact a lot of the indoor plants don’t require much sun as long as they have some nutritious soil, some heat and water.

Indoor gardening is a reflection of your needs. If you need to decorate your home with indoor plants and need some herbs growing in a corner then you are meeting your family needs.

Morning Glory - Greets the Brand New Day with A Full Bloom

Morning glory is a climbing plant with flowers that open in the morning sun and are usually closed for the rest of the day. The colours of the flowers vary from white to red.

The morning glory flowers can be found in fields and in the homes of many.

There were fields behind my childhood home, and even though we didn’t own them, we played with them often. One of the best parts of these fields was the wild, morning glory plants that grew there.

I would make sure I ran up there in the morning just to see them bloom. I was fascinated with them, because here was a plant that did indeed greet the morning and then turn around and close up for the rest of the day.

Though I no longer live there or have a chance to go there, I do find myself missing the morning glories I grew up with.

Front Yard Landscape gives a Good Impression about Your Property

Front yard landscape says a lot about the occupants of the house. If the front yard is neat and tidy with flower beds along stone pathways and a water fountain in the front yard, then you have a pretty welcoming front yard landscape.

This says to people that you are someone who cares about your property.

If you have a messy front yard with weeds and junk all over your lawn, then it gives a negative impression to the visitor to your property

Likewise, if your front yard is overgrown and landscaped in a haphazard way, your visitor receives an uninviting impression of not only your home, but you and your family, which is clearly undesirable.

If you’re trying to sell your home, your front yard landscape can kill the deal before they ever set foot in your house.

So you can see that your front yard landscape is important. Maybe you don’t see yourself as an artistic landscaper and feel at a loss as to how to proceed.
