Flower beds in the form of any figures look very beautiful in the garden. Consider how you can make a flower bed butterfly.

Method number 1

In order to make a butterfly flower bed, you must first mark it, for example, using a spray can of paint, then make a border.

To do this, you can take a plastic thin border tape. It bends well and is cheap enough; several colors of it are sold, but mostly green and brown.

Since the butterfly is very bright, mostly colored, inside it should be the same. In order to do this, you need to mark out small details, you can use the same border tape.

After filling the compartments with soil, flowers of different shades are planted there. The list is presented below:

1. The tips of the wings. Violet lobularia. It is low, with small flowers, will create a flowering carpet.
2. Part of the stripes going from the center is filled with red and orange marigolds.

Butterfly only from plants of one species. Among the flowers, petunia, nasturtium (except for blue), marigolds (can be mixed with ageratum), chrysanthemums annual or undersized varieties, carnations have many types and shades.

Wooden flower beds

The most common ways to create flower beds are, of course, from wood. This material is in any suburban area. This is a board for construction, and hemp left over from the felling of old trees. All this can be turned into beautiful flower beds.

Hemp flowerbed

If the stump is quite even, you can nail plywood to it, make it like the surface of a table and put beautiful flower pots on it, some of which are ampelous.

If the stump is high, it is used for vertical gardening. It is necessary to nail hooks or drive in nails to the trunk, hang decorative pots on them.

Flowerbed of logs

Wooden flower beds with their own hands are made of thick logs. Inside, a hole is hollowed out like a trough. All wood species have different wood structures. This can be used to offer interesting ideas that will look good later on the site and photos.

Home flower beds

In addition to garden beds, you can make beautiful houses, for example, on the windowsill or decorate a corner of the apartment. To do this, use various kitchen utensils: teapots, deep plates, glasses, cups, a sieve, baskets, colanders.

Flatware

Beautiful mugs, glasses, glasses are used for small plants, such as succulents, low domestic flowers.

Hollow-ware

Kettles, a sieve, baskets, colanders are used for ampelous plants, as well as tall and lush.

In teapots, holes must be drilled and laid at the bottom of the drain, installed on a pallet. Dishes that already have openings are covered with spanbond or agrotextile. Top off with a mixture of soil, fertilize and plant flowers.

Chess board

You can perform a two-tone composition. Fence the square, divide it into cells. Plant like a chessboard - one cell with white ageratums or alissum, next with purple pansies.

Lettering

From flowering plants you can make beautiful inscriptions on the lawn. First, the sod is removed, then they are dug up and peat, leaf soil, organic fertilizers are added. The same flowers are planted in all letters.

Vertical flower beds

Today, fashionable vertical landscaping. We are used to the fact that the walls of houses are decorated with various types of climbing plants: wild grapes, ivy and many others. But now various devices have been created to help apply other flowers. They decorate both the facades of houses and the interior. And beautiful flower beds with their own hands are created with proper care and watering.

Independently such flower beds can be made from ordinary flower pots.This is how they decorate their homes in hot Spain, and specifically in the city of Cordoba.

Pots are hung over the entire height of the house, in a certain order. Plants can be the same or different. The only negative is that the container is small and requires additional watering on hot days. Since the earth dries much faster, it is necessary to think through an irrigation system.

Basket of rods

Of the improvised materials that are often found on the site or in the neighboring forest, willow rods are often used. They are cut from a living tree, then they are well bent.

Mark a round or oval flowerbed. Stakes are driven in at equal distances and the rods begin to be woven into the height of the future flowerbed. Then make a pen, which can then perform additional functions, for example, to support climbing plants.

So that the soil does not spill out through weaving, put black agrotextile inside. Then they fall asleep with prepared soil. Plants are planted and watered abundantly.

Whatever flower beds you choose, you can buy them, or you can make them yourself.

Interesting ideas, photos and videos are taken from the Internet. And to make it not like everyone else, they apply their thoughts and creativity. Good luck, let your garden be the most beautiful.
