My First Spring

Post by Hayats »

Here are few flowers from my lawn. This is the first year I am in the gardening hobby and still trying to develop my aesthetic sense. Feel free to pour your advise.

Looks like you have a lot of space to experiment with. Maybe make more beds for perennial shrubs and annual borders.

AOA HAYAT

seems to be very nice place that you have and you are in Rawalpindi that is very close to my place means we got almost the same climate conditions, if you post some more pics from different angles then I will be in a better position to advise you something but one thing that I can see is that you have enough space to plant the flowers in the beds instead of using pots because they will progress better in beds comparatively in pots.

Thank you for the feedback. Can you give some specific names of perennial shrubs and annual borders that will be helpful in buying them at the nursery.

I love gardenias which should do well in dappled shade. Other good ones are are Brunfelsia, Ixora, Belloprone, Rondoletia, Marwa, Sanchezia, Buddleia, Tecoma, Coleus etc. Don't forget roses if you are willing to take care of them.
