Let’s go to find 3 golden tips for creating a vertical garden with apartment flowers

 

1- Choose The Best Location For Your Vertical Garden With Apartment Flowers

You need a wall for building your vertical garden but which one is proper?

Various factors are involved in building a garden such as sunlight, temperature, airflow, etc if your city has cold winters, you must build your garden on one of the walls of your living room near the window with bright indirect sunlight (we call it as a living wall) or create a plant tunnel from one room to another.

If you live in a warmer climate, you can build your garden on your balcony. However you want to build your vertical garden in a room or balcony, the plants need watering and other plant caring and you must do a foundation on your wall.

 

2- The Best Idea Frameworks For Your Vertical Garden With Apartment Flowers

After choosing your wall allow me to show you 4 frameworks for building your vertical garden with apartment flowers.

 

1- A pocketed wall panel

It is best for apartments with small spaces. If you want to maximize your space, a pocketed wall panel can be a good idea because it takes up little space while holding numerous plants (you can accumulate nearly 36 pots on it). It is made of heavy material, like canvas, so don’t worry about easy breaking.

I recommend covering the wall with a plastic sheet to prevent damage during watering. In addition, the small indoor plants that their maximum size is still small or are slow growing to fill the pockets (small apartment flowers).

 

2- Rows of shelves

if you have a larger space, they will work well for building a vertical garden. you can put larger pots on them in comparison to a pocketed wall panel. Hence you can arrange the rows with various containers in shape and size with variegated apartment flowers.

Get help with a plastic sheet to cover the wall. It will keep water off the wall.

 

3- A trellis

it is best for building a vertical garden with climbing flowering plants. It can be a part of your vertical garden or hide it completely with flowering vines. Attaching a flat trellis to an indoor wall will be well-designed for your living room.

If you have a balcony or terrace you can put a large trellis like a tall, narrow cage or arch, covered with a flowering vine.

 

4- A ladder

a small ladder that is leaned on your living wall can make a distinct look inside your apartment. Additionally, you can also use a larger one to make your vertical garden on your balcony.

 

3- Choose The Right Flowering Plants For Your Vertical Garden

Some plants are better for building a vertical garden. in the above you find a list of the best apartment flowers, in the following, I will talk with you more about them. You also can grow your food in your vertical garden. some of the edible indoor plants produce beautiful flowers before fruiting. They will bring both beauty and food to your home.

Do you want vines in your vertical garden? Or perhaps you’re going to grow food. Some plants work better than others when it comes to growing up.

 

Tips For Being Success In Container Gardening

What can be more wonderful than bringing likeness to your dull apartment with plants that not only have energetic flowers but also produce your organic food? So, Common to say hello to container gardening.

 In this part, I will discuss with you the pro tips for growing edible plants in a container inside your small apartment. You may say “My apartment is very small”, “it is low light” etc. I will answer “ The word gardening has variegated plants that can thrive in various conditions.”

Some vegetables produce flowers in variegated colours and sizes that can bring vitality to your lifeless kitchen. What can be more energetic than growing tomato plants on your balcony with yellow small flowers and red tasty fruits?

In container gardening, you don’t need a huge bog. Use your empty containers in your kitchen to create your container garden. the following things can be good for starting:

• The drawers from an old dresser
• Wicker baskets
• Orange crates
• Plastic storage bins
• Mason jars (with an inch or so of rocks in the bottom for drainage)

You have to drill holes in their bottom, finished! Don’t waste your money buying expensive gardening tools, a small spoon can work well and you can make your sprinkler with an old pitcher.

If you don’t have bright sunlight, you can get help from lighting and moisture with a sprinkler spray. There are a lot of organic fertilizers and pesticides that you can produce at home on your apartment flowers. The only thing that you should buy is a good soil mixture. So, if you are ready, start to build your container garden.

3. Another factor that has an impact on the location of your apartment flower bed is humidity. Some areas of your house are more humid like a bathroom or near the sink of the kitchen. If you want to use a flower bed in such areas, you must think about the materials of your planter, its watering system and the type of apartment flowers.
4. Based on the location of your indoor flower bed you can decide which kind of it is more proper for your apartment; designing a horizontal bed garden with a raised garden bed or having a vertical bed garden with a pocketed wall panel, rows of shelves or a trellis?
5. To find the best place for your flower, in the following (in the part of the best idea for incorporating flower beds into your apartment), you can make your inspiration from the idea we will provide you with images.

 

2- Its Size

After you make a correct decision about the location of your apartment flower bed, the second factor that you have to consider is the size of it. The combination of location and size will determine the type of flowers. For example, the selection of apartment flowers for a large flower bed on a sunny balcony is completely different from a small flower bed in a low-light living room.

If you have enough space to design a large indoor flower bed you can choose a combination of tall and short, large and small indoor plants with more decorative elements such as rocks and etc. But for a small flower bed, you have fewer selections.

 

3- The Amount Of Sunlight

The plant needs various amounts of sunlight to grow. some plants may need direct, or indirect sunlight prefer to thrive in shade or can grow in both bright and low light conditions.

When you want to select a place for your indoor garden bed, you must consider this factor. If you can a brighter location with indirect sunlight, you will have more selections for planting apartment flowers. I recommend you before starting to plant, consult with an expert gardener and ask him/her to meet your apartment.

The type of sunlight in the location of your indoor garden bed is a critical factor in choosing flowers for it. In the following (in the part How to choose the right flowers for your flower bed) we will discuss it in more detail.

 

4- Your Schedule For Caring For Your Flower Bed

The house flowering plants may be hard- or low-maintenance. If you are a beginner without enough experience in gardening or a busy person who doesn’t have enough time to care for a flower bed, you have to design it with low-maintenance plants.

You may think it is not an important element and you may be more interested in considering the aesthetic sides in designing your apartment flower bed.

But you should trust me, my experience showed that if you ignore this element, you will spend a lot of money and time designing a stunning bedflower for your apartment and finally, after a while, you will have empty containers or a flower bed with withered apartment flowers with an unpleasant appearance.

Hence, first, make a list of your favourite flowers and before starting to plant them in your indoor garden bed, search about their requirements and other caring needs. Read the part “How to choose the right flowers for your Flower Bed” to find more details.

 

5- How Much You Want To Spend For Designing A Flower Bed

With every budget, you can have a flower bed. You can build and design it yourself or get an expert to do it. you can buy annual stunning flowers or plant expensive rare ones. It is own you. Beauty is free, if you are creative and spend time for finding, building and caring for your flower bed.

 

The Best Idea For Incorporating Flower Beds Into Your Apartment

In this part, I want to show you the best ideas for incorporating your stunning flower beds into various parts of your apartment. For designing a flower bed, you should first think about its location and why you want to have it.

The most common locations for placing a flower bed are:

• Balcony
• Windowsill
• Corridor
• Room

You may incorporate a flower bed in your apartment just for its aesthetic visual effects or for special purposes such as a room divider.

The combination of location and your intent will determine the type of your flower bed. For example, for a large sunny balcony, you should use a raised garden bed with colourful perennial or annual flowers. But if your intent of having a flower bed is a room divider inside a small low-light living room, you should think about a vertical garden bed with climbing vines that have stunning tiny flowers.

 

How To Choose the Right Flowers For Your Flower Bed

When it comes to an apartment flower, choosing apartment flowers is an important part of it. As you found out in the previous parts, several factors have an impact on choosing the correct plants for your indoor garden bed. Indeed, all elements that we discuss above, finally have an impact on this issue.

• The location of the flower bed determines the amount and type of sunlight, humidity, etc.
• Its size.
• The kind of flower bed includes horizontal or vertical indoor garden beds.
• Your intent of having it: only for aesthetic sides or special tasks like room dividing.
• Your experience in gardening and your scheduled time for caring for it.
• Your budget. how much do you want to spend on having an apartment flower bed?

The flowers you will select for your indoor garden bed will be based on a combination of the above factors. Hence, consider the following tips for designing a perfect bedflower:

• Try to select flowers with your favourite colour combination.
• Think about the final size of your plant. Determine plants that fit best in your space after years, unless you have to report your favourite plant. You may choose a small bird’s paradise plant but after several years it will get larger and larger and won’t fit with your space.
• Choose flowers that can thrive in your area, think about light and humidity.
• Choose flowers that are safe for pets and kids.
• If you want to place your flower bed in your living room or bedroom, think about air-clearing plants and one that produces more oxygen.
• Try to design a show-stopping with flowers in your indoor garden bed.
• Flowers may bloom at specific times, consider it and try to combinate plants that offer year-round interest.

How To Create A Simple Flower Bed In Your Apartment?

Finally, we receive the most creative part of designing an apartment flower bed; how to create it. Depending on your living space and intent, you can design a horizontal or vertical indoor garden bed.

For designing a horizontal indoor garden bed, using raised garden beds can be a beautiful idea that will perform quickly. You can move them easily to clean the floor or change your décor. 

You can find the raised garden bed in variegated shapes, materials and colours that you can easily match with your décor style.

Watering is an important factor in this issue. you should take advantage of containers without drainage holes to keep your floor clean. In addition, you must choose plants with similar water intake for planting in a raised garden bed.

Soil is another factor that you have to consider for designing an indoor garden bed. Various apartment flowers need various soil types. You should search for the proper soil for flowers that you want to plant in a bed. However, you can fill different parts of a bed with various soils, but you should select flowers with similar soil types.

If you don’t have enough space or try to cover an unpleased wall, a vertical garden bed can be a good choice. We discussed about vertical garden with apartment flowers in previous parts in detail. Read it again and try to make your inspiration.

Add Hanging Baskets. It is another way to create a pearling vertical flower bed in your apartment. You can perform it alone or in combination with other types. There are a lot of hanging apartment flowerssuch as:

• Bromeliads
• Lipstick Plant
• Impatiens
• Begonia
• Chenile Plant

• Fuchsia
• African Violet
• Purple Shamrock
• Creeping Gloxinia

• Trailing Kalanchoe

You can hang them anywhere in your living space and create a stunning vertical flower bed. Before, planting these plants, think about their watering and drained water. Using pots without holes can be a good idea but you have to search about making drainage in these pots.

Hanging baskets are another way to provide vertical interest in your garden. They can be mounted to walls, off of decks, or on posts in the garden. Or use a shepherd’s hook so you can hang them anywhere you like.
