A good place for flowers is a sunny or slightly pronted zone, but under the thick crown of the tree or on the north side of the housing, the plants will not be enough light. Decide also with an area that you are willing to plant flowers. If the flower is created for the first time, you should not exceed the diameter (length, width) of two meters.

With their help it is possible to create a multi-level and fairly spectacular flowerbed. Consider the color gamut and the favor of varieties for the sunshine.

Color scheme will help streamline thoughts and modify the idea, and later - carefully arrange the platform. If the inspiration has left and an interesting flower bed does not work in any way, take advantage ready projects.

Now is the time to go to the preparatory work. At the end of March - early April, remove the top layer of the soil, remove the roots of weeds. In too clay soil, add the sand, in sandy ground - a little concrete. Make comprehensive fertilizers, compost, then break the bed to a depth of up to 40 cm.
