I know that I can get to repeat myself a lot, but choosing rustic plants is one of the most important things that have to be done if you want to have a good garden, and cheap. In addition, it does not take long since you will only have to acquire those that are in the outdoor facilities of the nurseries that you have closer to home.

Third step - Prepare the ground and decorate your garden

Prepare ground

In order for the plants to grow well, it is first necessary to prepare the ground. So, what you should do is the following:

  1. Remove the stones, as many as you can. You can pass the rototiller first and then, with the rake, pile them up and take them to another site.
  2. With the rake, level the ground.
  3. If it has been neglected for a long time (2 years or more), add a 2-3cm layer of compost. You can use manure o earthworm humus.
  4. Install the irrigation system, so that plants can grow.
  5. Plant the plants.
  6. Build the pool, if you plan to have one.
  7. Put up some garden furniture, so that they match the colors of the rest of the garden. Here We tell you the advantages and disadvantages of each type of material that is used to make them.
