Ever
had this thing with your lawn disappearing? Was it on your volition or was it
something that happened by accident? It happens many times than not, and that
is one thing worth pursuing. Many gardeners are troubled with the prospect of
having a bare lawn.
Getting your lawn lose its natural cover means
that the surrounding of your home will not have that well-trimmed look.
Typical phenomena
The
disappearance of the garden is not something that is uncommon in many homes as
park owners replace the grass with several breeds of flowers. Some of these
flowers include the varieties of ornamental grasses including the traditional
herbs, alliums, hauchers, and bulbs.
At
times, this fact may make the use if the
lawn mower to be put on hold as I came to learn
once when I paid a visit to my immediate neighbor. Going Gaga, at first sight,
is not a typical thing with many who are into tending the lawn.
Flowers as perfect lawn
replacements
Most
gardeners encourage their colleagues to be able to replace the grass with
several bulbs which to some of the seasoned gardeners have in their gardens.
However, it is sometimes clear that the majority of growers experiment with the
different bulbs.
Replacing
lawns with gardens is the dream of the backyard reformers. In fact, looking
around, the earth is likely better off without the grass cover but instead
better if we plant gardens in their place.
Sometimes,
people regret when they have successfully eliminated their lawns with the
gardens, and yet the gardens are yet to pick up. In fact, it is not worth
lamenting as the eventual outcome may just be what the gardener would have
liked.
The
planting of flowers in the garden may not be bad after all as it encourages
diverse forms of fauna to thrive. Take the case of several species of bees who
love living in areas where the flowers are planted to understand the effect of
planting flowers.
You
may start planting just a few flower plants like the varieties of the dwarf
narcissus sparingly with some tulips which will add an aura to the look of your
lawn. Over time, the planting of other densely populated flower varieties as
the park gets a new look.
Plants
like the alliums karataviense or the alliums moly may work the ideal miracle. Some
varieties of flowers like the Jeanine are however hard to interplant among the
densely populated varieties flower.
You
can still have them individually planted to add the color to the lawn look when
it finally picks up. Such small flower varieties are good if planted close
together to get the dense look as they germinate.
However,
with the other bulbs which can work with them, you can achieve a good looking
garden as you come up with the last lawn look.
The method of flower planting!
Several
tested strategies of flower gardening exist, and the secret has been that the
flower masses are usually the best if you have them on the lawn. With the
flowers stuck together, you are at best going to achieve the color you need.
If
you have a small garden space, then you may want to achieve what most people
call the bowl effect with the planting of the flowers near the shrubs.while
that would be so, when planting the flower bulbs, the intrinsic nature of the
varieties makes the gardener have an afterthought as that may not allow for
their ease of growth.
The
ultimate effect of the gardening technique involving the planting of flower on the lawn
is that you are bound to hit the proverbial bird with one stone as you get the
aesthetics while you also achieve the environmental effect this is likely to
succeed.
A mix of edible herbs as well
You
may even decide to infuse the garden with some herbs which are good ads you get
a feel of what their therapeutic and vegetative effect is. Herbs are good for
the health of the lawn owner while some of them including some varieties of
bulbs are known for their good properties.
Lawn
reformers are at it to make people change their minds on the need to have
meadows mixed with parks. While this is a long shot, it is worth giving some
consideration however in most of the instances; it is the decision of the
gardener and the lawn owner to decide.
Conclusion
Whatever
appears on your lawn is what you decide on your own. Several blogs which I have
written deal with this area and our current reformist agenda bring home the
need to have flowers in your gardens. You can try them out and see.
