What Plants to Grow in a Villa Garden
Bangalore
being the hot spot for those looking to settle down in an urban set
up, the real estate industry in the city is flourishing in an
unprecedented manner. While the city is expanding with more and more
IT companies and corporate pooling in more people, the need for
finding a suitable shelter has also become crucial with a limited
space. Apartments and flats are the only solution that can serve the
purpose of accommodating this increasing population.
However,
there are many people who still prefer living in an independent
house. These buyers therefore are nowadays looking for villa plots in
north Bangalore, which provides them a satisfaction of living in a
home of their own despite being only 4 or 5 cents. These people also
find satisfaction by indulging in gardening in the available area.
This is one of the reasons why plots
for sale in international airport road
in gated communities are being enquired by many and buyers who are
willing to make such plots in their name are many.
A
major setback of urbanisation is fast decreasing green cover that is
in turn affecting the environment in a negative manner. In this
situation planting some plants in the available area, even though in
a small scale will add to the process of reviving the atmosphere.
Growing
miniature or dwarf varieties of plants, fruits or vegetables will not
only serve the purpose in the best manner but will also prove to be
bountiful. Filling terracotta
pots
with some citrus varieties of fruit plants, roses, ornamental
grasses, sage, Pomegranate, etc will give a sunny side to the home.
Dedicating
an area for seasonal flowers will make it filled with flowers of
different colours throughout the year. Plants that grow in a linear
manner are advisable as those spreading its stems will take up a lot
of area. Growing shrubs is also an intelligent idea. Leaf lettuce,
tomatoes, squash and cucumbers do not grow much but are also useful
as they provide pesticide free veggies and at the same time also look
beautiful.
Low-care
succulents that can store water in their fleshy stems are the best
option if watering is a problem. However, these plants need a good
2-4 hours of direct sunlight. Growing indoor plants that can also be
placed in a shady area outside the villa in mobile containers will be
helpful as they can be moved from inside if necessary and at the same
time will also survive outside for a couple of days.
Building
a window
box
for planting the herbs is a good idea that will provide pure organic
produce and also add up to the greenery around the villa. They can be
placed in a convenient spot where watering can be properly done.
However, it should be ensured that pests are kept out. Stacking or
creating tiers is also an innovative idea to maximise the use of the
available space and at the same time plants as many shrubs or plants
required.
Hitting
the creative note in you before throwing the used cans and containers
can make you convert them into pots that can be used to grow small
ornamental plants. They look unique and also prevent these cans from
being thrown away that can add to the waste materials. These can also
be arranged in a small area.
Steps
and railing are also creatively used to plant something. The entrance
can be given a fresh look by arranging pots in one side along the
stairs with ornamental flowers. Innovative techniques can also be
used to hang small containers with shrubs along the railings of the
stairs.
Lastly,
growing vegetables in grow bags is the best option that can be done
in the available space yet will also yield the desired output.
