Let’s first add some water to your garden.
No, we aren’t talking about watering your garden regularly. You already do that, don’t you? The easiest way to make your garden look like a paradise oasis is to add a water feature to it.
You also don’t need to go with a big, expensive water feature. Something small and unique, such as a delicate birdbath or even an owl-shaped fountain, can add some much-needed tranquility to your garden.
The murmuring, chuckling sound of water in your garden will wash away the demands of the modern world. Birdbaths and even ponds are also great to lure some colorful feathered friends into your oasis.
If you feel that a birdbath won’t fit in your garden, check Aquatic Ponds for some water-featured inspiration. One of our favorites is the Japanese fountain. It is low-maintenance and adds a soft, soothing sound to the garden.
In no time at all, your garden will be a green paradise.
Now throw in some color.
Talking about that green paradise, try to add some color, would you? Far too many gardens are a standard green. They lack color and vibrancy. The green just makes them look dull and typical.
If you really want your garden to pop, add some colorful flowers and plants. The most important thing to remember when adding color to your garden is that the colors should complement each other.
Don’t add too many colors. Rather choose a select few that will draw attention without overwhelming the viewer. If you are curious, try using a color wheel to help determine the best complementary colors for your garden.
For a less maintenance-heavy touch, use accessories and ornaments to bring in color and some much-needed personality.
Time to show off with some personality.
Yes, every gardener will tell you that their garden is an extension of their personality. To make your garden look like a million-dollar oasis, add some of your personality to it.
For a creative flair, add some garden decor and accessories. Pergolas, outdoor benches, and sculptures are all the rage. If you have some creative skills, try your hand at making your own flower pots out of clay.
You could even paint a couple of larger rocks and pebbles with interesting patterns. Don’t be afraid to experiment. Just keep in mind that you need to maintain a delicate balance between the natural greens, colorful plants, and your decorations.
The less artificial your decorations look, the better.
Yes, you didn’t even need green fingers.
If you follow these three easy tricks, your garden will be transformed into a tranquil oasis. The mental benefits of being surrounded by nature have long since been proven. As gardeners, we’ve always known how wholesome nature is.
Now, you have even more reason to be outdoors. Remember, don’t be afraid to experiment. Follow our three tips, and you will have a fantastic garden in no time. Happy gardening!
