The climbers take on special force in the summer, with responsibility for protecting temperature to isolate some of the walls of excessive heat caused by the impact of sunlight at the same time, if we are properly guided excellent at spaces to provide shade outdoors.

What I propose in this paper is about six climbers’ comentarte different mark presence and interest in the garden, in the summer and throughout the year.

For example, I will not go this time in the glycine, despite being so beautiful … because only flower gives a fairly short time.

Clematis Jackmanii. This little gem you see in the cover image, not only has a small bunch of wonderfully fragrant flowers, but also evergreen. Choose a sheltered spot for her in the garden, especially-if possible-of the winds.

Rosa Alberic Barbier. This is one of my favorite roses is beautiful and fragrant, is almost always green if it is on terms satisfactory to him. It will flower from summer through fall.

Passiflora caerulea. Better known as passion flowers (there are many varieties in fact) have beautifully exotic flowers and fruits yellow birds can enjoy throughout the winter.

Honeysuckle, Lonicera henryi. Definitely my favorite if I’m forced to choose only one climber. Vigorous, semi-evergreen or deciduous, can grow to about 9 meters. Its flowers are not spectacular in both its delicate beauty and in its aroma.

Vine Vitis or coignetiae. Able to grow even 15 meters is simply stunning fall foliage, carrying shades of orange, mahogany and red! It also blooms in early to midsummer, followed by black berries with a purple flower.

Heart of Gold, Ivy Hedera. Characterized by bright pink stalks, which turn brown with age. Its leaves are dark green with irregular yellow touches in the middle. Delay in getting started, but worth it.

For grass to grow lush should be released regularly in moss and leaf litter. The aerator lawn Bosch gets rid of both easily adjusting their felxible steel claws 20 at the proper height: – 5mm styling and plush moss without damaging the turf, +10 mm to remove the leaves.

HEALTHY LAWN CARE THROUGH CONTINUOUS.
Mosses and rooted vegetation flat block optimal supply of air, water and nutrients from the lawn. The Bosch Lawn scarifier solves this problem quickly i effective.

The 10 double roller claws tear selectively rotating the plush lawn, respecting, however, the grass plants and roots. Result: The grass is released from a mild form of unwanted vegetation, which makes them grow and develop optimally. A study of turf expert, Dr. Müller-Beck, confirms the advantages of working principle of the scarifier lawn. With only two applications per year, in spring and autumn, the lawn can absorb all the important nutrients, and with a success that is obvious.

You has to maintain a healthy lawn care regularly:

Mow

In spring the grass should be cut to a height as low as possible, which is important to aerate the lawn.

Air

The spring steel rotary ripper rip the moss and weeds. The lawn will breathe.

And also, if for some time had insufficient care:

Replant and pay

the bald reseed the lawn with the right seeds, covering them with mulch.

Water

For the seeds to germinate and take root and grow in this way the grass is now important moisture.

Garden Sheds, Tips, Ideas.
If your garden is occupied by lots more ugly empty pots, bags of seeds, fertilizer bags herramientasagrupadas and, with respect to the number of plants, it is time to invest in a garden shed. Not only improve the look of your garden but will acquire tusherramientas and supplies safe, orderly and dry.

No doubt, the value added will increase the living space of the garden, a direct result of everything is in order and in place. There are multiple options so the question is how to choose the right model for me? There are several parameters that help, we will share them …

* Where to install, if you choose carefully, rather than a solution can be annoying and uncomfortable to use. Consider carefully the balance between accessibility and too good sight. Avoid sites and especially permanent shade under trees or damaged roots too near the floor dearbustoscuyas and structure

* The size, the answer will emerge when evaluating the space available to install and the amount of things you need special ella.Cuidado stored in choosing the size of the door opening, it depends on what you store and how you transport .

* The material, once decided the size, the challenge is to choose the best material. The most commonly used are wood, metal or plastic (vinyl) and depends on each case what is right. For example, wood is more interesting from the aesthetic, but a cunning idea if the house is a place of permanent shade and high humidity of suelo.No forget to leave spaces for windows that let through air and natural light.

Flowers fill the garden should be fun, so start slowly, you will not be overwhelmed with the progress of the season.

Start by choosing a place that has good drainage and receive direct sun for at least five hours a day.

If you’ve tried your soil may fertilize based on their results

Most flower gardens combine annual and perennial flowers.

If you plan to grow perennials, check with your local cooperative extension service, or a respected garden center to learn as much of your USDA hardiness zone and are more reliable perennial in your area.

Friends and neighbors who for years have flower gardens are another good source of local information.

And do not forget the websites of the nearby schools and extension services.

Unless you want a “garden court” specifically designed to provide cut flowers, avoid the lines or straight lines associated with orchards. You will probably need to rely more heavily on the early annuals until the perennials mature.

To reduce maintenance summer mulch to help soil retain moisture and reduce weeds. Water regularly, preferably at the base of your plants instead of on top.

Gardening easy tips to make gardening. Interesting than today’s proposal: to make gardening easier means not to say that there will always be work to do in the garden. But we can make things easier and that is precisely the idea for this post.

No bright ideas are needed … most of these tips are just common sense. Let’s see what they are …

* The right plant for the right place will save many headaches, time and financial investment. Choose tusplantaspensando the characteristics of each site and you insist on not contradict nature.

* A good soil test may be the answer to many questions that arise when things go wrong. Why do not you do it from scratch? It will help you choose.

* Low Maintenance Perennials. They are the best option if you know your chances of time are irregular and not always devote as much as you want. Asesórate a nursery you trust.

* Use pots and place them slightly elevated ground level. You will have the advantage of mobility and also much less you bend over.

* Drip irrigation, if you have economic possibilities of installing it, believe me you will save on all sides: the vital water resources, irrigation time on your side and you will have more efficient and controlled irrigation, which saves further discounting.

But contradictory to what may seem, it is usually temporary change of residence, trips … in short, not being home much time and neglecting some of our plants and garden. This is no excuse to know there is a garden in August schedule to be met. Our plants do not take vacations.

In Spain, August is a little less warm than July and the days begin to be shorter. With this, we see that the plants begin to vegetate better and some fruits like orange have a second re-sprouting.

In the garden:

It is the ideal time to harvest vegetables such as melons and watermelons.
As temperatures remain high, we can make watering basins around to help pick fruit and make better use of irrigation water.

Irrigation a few days elapsed, remove the topsoil to prevent water loss by perspiration and thus risks alienating.

Go preparing the ground for planting vegetables for the fall.

Rather than sowing, transplanting some vegetables can even as lettuce, peppers, pumpkins, tomatoes and cucumbers to accelerate their culture and get to collect them before they get cold.

We damaged branches from trees and branches to be forming as we have them in the form of glass, cane, lace, etc…

Collect those seeds and aromatic vegetables as possible for planting next year.

Tomatoes on the vine

on the lawn:

Varieties that blight this season begin to sprout.
Drizzle with some frequency in the early hours of the day or late afternoon, but never get the plants wet at night.

Control pests such as caterpillars or diseases such as rust.

Mowing with a cut half each week to promote perspiration lawn.

Pay at lower doses and to start thinking about fertilizers strengthen it for the fall, richer in potassium and less nitrogen.

If you have to replant areas, we think that time is running good, do it now.

In the garden:

If we can, “green pruning” trees, removing those branches still young but we do not like where or how they grow. This will eliminate harsh winter pruning.

Clean the dried flowers and plants to reduce emissions further promote.

Clear seasonal plants will be very sure to make the most hit, although we have to be thinking about the fall season plants.

Keep watering regularly.

Monitor pests and diseases, especially using preventative treatments against scale insects, caterpillars and especially spider mites and the high temperatures and low relative humidity favors development.

Collect seeds from those plants as possible for planting next year.

In houseplants:

Continue to pay at each watering but at the recommended dose rates.
Humidity control as you will need to be increased, particularly large-leaved plants.

If we want a transplant to a slightly larger pot, we must do this month.

Preventive treatment of triple action will be sufficient to avoid pests and diseases. Watch out for mites.

If we housekeeper, make sure to leave water reserves available to plants.

On the terrace:

Continue watering almost daily.

Pests, spider mites and caterpillars are the most common.

Pay with every watering but lower recommended doses, and if these are very common … alternating irrigation with and without fertilizer.

Making the most of seasonal plants we have and start thinking about replacing over the next month by the autumn.

To keep the roses blooming roses should be cut, ideal to go cutting the branches of the year to about 5 cm from the insertion point of the main stem.

If we have not pruned the aromatic do this month to begin again his face sprouting of September.
