Introduction
If you’re a gardener, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the number of plants available. There are so many different options when it comes to choosing what to plant in your yard, and deciding which ones will be best for your area can be confusing. But don’t worry! I’m here to help you decide on the best plants for your home and lifestyle. With some practice, you can get your yard looking amazing!
Make sure you plant in the right location.
- Understand the plant’s needs
The first thing you should do is to understand your plant’s growing conditions. This will make it much easier for you to know where to place your plants and how much sunlight or shade they need. For example, some plants prefer full sun while others prefer partial shade. You may also want to consider whether your plant is a herbaceous perennial (long-lived) or an annual (short-lived).
- Understand the plant’s growth habits
Once you have determined what kind of growth habit your new addition has, then look at its size when fully grown and make sure that there is room for its eventual expansion in size before deciding where to put it! If possible, dig up some soil around the area where I plan on planting my new addition so that I can determine if there are any underground wires or pipes which may interfere with my plans! Also keep in mind how tall each individual stem grows – this information will help me decide whether I need
Plant according to height.
Planting according to height will help you get the most out of your yard. A row of plants that are all the same height looks great, but it’s best to mix it up a bit and add some variety:
- Planting in a circle is ideal if you have more than 8 plants. If you’re just starting out, though, maybe try something else.
- Planting in a spiral is ideal if you like circles but can’t fit them into your yard (or don’t want to). You might have trouble finding enough space for this arrangement outside; inside it’s pretty easy!
- You should plant in squares instead of circles when:
- You need bigger spaces between each plant; or *There isn’t any room at all for circles in your home or apartment.
Plant with color in mind.
When it comes to choosing plants, color is an important consideration. The right flowers and plants can give your yard a complete makeover by adding color and style.
If you’re not sure what plants are in season or how to combine them, there are plenty of resources online that can help you out. Some gardeners also like to use color wheels when they plan their gardens. These have a central circle divided into 12 different shades of color, accompanied by two additional circles on either side representing the two primary colors used in making other hues (red and blue). By using this tool as a guide for plant placement, you’ll be able to create stunning arrangements without too much work!
With some practice, you can get your yard looking amazing!
Planting is a skill that can be learned. The more you do it, the better you will get. You can learn from other people who know what they are doing, but also by making your own mistakes. And ultimately, you’ll learn even more by talking to plants and getting their perspective on things!
