Organic gardening is a gardening technique wherein
no artificial fertilizers are used for plant-propagation. Only natural
nutrients are used. Modern gardening today, often incorporates a
rich amount of other-than-natural fertilizers, nutriments,
pesticides, synthetics, chemicals etc. While these products do serve
their purpose fostering plant growth, if they are eaten, they can
prove to be harmful and unhygienic to human health. This is where
organic gardening comes into play as it does not employ any chemicals.

Thats the concept of grey gardens. Gardens,
usually are colorful, or are dominantly green. But at the same time,
they can carry contrasts. There are a few plants and
shrubs that seem to 'shine' due to the whitish or greyish edges
on their leaves. These glittering edges, in turn, help add some
sparkle to your gardens. Grey leaf plants with their
greyish-green or silvery-blue leaves, are primary components of
grey gardens. Grey could be any shade of grey,
inclined towards complete white or complete black. The purpose is
to add a line that has no color, which in turn, could help draw
attention. In the midst of color, grey leaf plants grow dull blue,
dull green, silver, or white colored leaves giving your gardens
a touch of oddity and unconventionality, which has always proved
to be interesting. Examples of grey leaf plants are : aglaonema,
artemisia, basil, sage and crassula. Learn

The combination of natural beauty and an artificial
elegance has been the most graceful trend of adornment. Garden statues
follow this simple principle. Evolved from animal statues in ancient
Japanese gardens, the creation of garden statues is now a booming
business. Garden statues are available in extensive range of makes,
styles and replications. Moreover, the material used is a notable
factor when it comes to determining the quality of garden statues.
Material could be a liquid mix of sand, cement and water; an original
marble, resin, or anything that can help making statues. Accordingly,
the commercial value of statues is higher if purer materials like
bronze are used or if the masterpiece is actually sculpted and not
cast. Learn more
