Renovating Forgotten Spaces with Creative Plant Scaping

When it comes to fixing up your home there are some areas that people often ignore but can really benefit from a little attention. These are the little spaces and corners in our homes that could be used for more than they are right now. Using some easy and imaginative ways to arrange plants you can turn any neglected area into a lively and peaceful spot that looks great.

A key part of good plant design is knowing the special features of the area you are dealing with. You can take that old corner of the stairwell or the empty space on the windowsill or even the weird spot between the furniture and make it a nice little garden. First take a look at the lighting situation. Is it a bright spot where the sun shines or a dark little area? This will help you choose the best plants for your needs. Ferns and snake plants do well in places with little light so they are great choices for darker spots. Succulents and cacti really enjoy bright sunny places and they do well on windowsills that get a lot of sunlight.

Vertical gardens offer a great way to make use of tight areas or empty walls. If you put up some easy wall planters you can add a nice touch of green that catches attention and makes things less boring. Choose hanging plants like pothos or philodendrons that spill over nicely and add some depth and vibrancy to your walls. Using hanging planters or macramé plant hangers adds a creative touch and helps save space above your head which is really helpful in small nooks where there isn’t much room on the floor.

If you have garden areas that people usually overlook try adding some planters that have different levels. Try using different sizes and shapes of pots to make things look more interesting. Begin by placing the taller pots at the back and then move to the smaller ones in the front. Using different materials and colors for the pots like terracotta ceramic or metal makes the design more interesting.

Now think about adding some natural things to your outfit. You can use pebbles, driftwood, or a little water feature to bring the plants together and make the whole scene more interesting. Think about turning an empty shelf into a little Zen garden with some sand a few nicely placed pebbles and a tiny air plant. These setups make things look nicer and create a calm atmosphere.

You can't really finish a landscaping project without taking care of the plants. To keep your updated area healthy you need to water it regularly give it enough sunlight and sometimes add some nutrients. If you want to make things easier to take care of think about getting self-watering pots or setting up a drip irrigation system. This is especially helpful if you have a lot of plants that are tough to get to.

To sum it up, making your plants look nice is a great way to liven up those dull areas in your house. By carefully putting plants in different spots and using the space above and around them you can turn any overlooked corner into something really interesting. The next time you go by that boring empty spot think about how it could turn into something beautiful if you just add some plants.
