With the summer months looming, many people will be looking through their windows and not liking what they see. The process of starting again with our gardens can seem daunting. Often a bleak, blank canvas, outdoor spaces can look dismal in the winter, lacking colour and excitement. The start of the warmer weather, however, signals the beginning of the BBQ season, meaning many will want to focus on getting their gardens in tip-top shape to impress friends and family.
Most people don’t have the time to spend weeks tweaking their gardens, constantly tripping to the garden centre for new plants and inspiration. And that’s one of the reasons why artificial greenery has increased in popularity over the last couple of years. Ideal for transforming outdoor spaces quickly and easily – and with minimal effort – artificial plants, trees, and artificial grass imitate a mature garden instantly. Ideal for busy couples and families and those who would rather spend time doing the things they love rather than spending umpteen hours refining the garden, artificial plants and trees make it possible to transform bare, overgrown gardens and other outdoor spaces into flourishing little sanctuaries in as little as one weekend. You can even create a miniature garden indoors and flowers with a flourishing collection of monthly flowers to brighten up your space.
As any keen gardener will know, gardening is an art that requires endless hours of refining to keep it looking spick and span. Requiring no planting, weeding or TLC to make it bloom into a head-turner, artificial greenery is one of the easiest and quickest ways to transform any uninspiring outdoor space. Natural plants take time to grow and mature, often leaving you waiting weeks for the first signs of life – let alone for a burst of colour. Artificial plants and trees look like the real thing, with the only difference being that they’re always ‘in bloom’. Simple and quick to place in the garden, they can be placed anywhere to brighten up a dull corner or highlight a striking feature.
Hedges and trees are an excellent idea for those who want privacy. Creating a haven, they provide an aesthetically pleasing division between neighbours’ gardens and roads. As you know, trees and hedges can take years to mature into the thick, green walls that adorn gardens everywhere, meaning those grand ideas for the private outdoor space you’ve always dreamed of will become a distant dream. However, going down the artificial path will allow you to create a private space in minutes. Like the real thing, artificial hedges and trees come in various varieties mimicking the real thing. From artificial Ivy hedges to artificial cypress trees and autumnal maple trees, there is an option to suit your needs.
