Timelapse - Building a deck / patio

Whether you have a massive deck or patio, or a small space for outdoor entertaining, you can create a stunning outdoor garden. With container gardening, any patio or deck can be transformed into a beautiful oasis for entertaining or simply relaxing. The use of pots, planters, and an array of containers make a huge difference in a small space. And containers are much easier to manage and replace than traditional gardens.

First, it’s important to choose containers that fit in well with your environment and that provide a healthy home for plants. It’s best to invest a little more money in quality containers rather than purchasing plastic or terracotta. Good quality containers will last for many years to come and they’ll come to life many times again as you add new plants. They give your outdoor space a feeling of warmth and add depth to the area.

Everything was great until probably the first week of June when we suddenly were hit with a heat wave. No problem, I thought. I just brewed up a fresh batch of iced tea and brought it outside to settle in for a lazy afternoon on the patio.

Well, that lasted about five minutes. Because if I would have stayed out there any longer, I would’ve gone blind from the sun in my eyes, turned red as a lobster, or lost about 10 pounds from all the sweating I was going to be doing.

And it’s not that we live in a hot climate. We’re in a very temperate region that really only gets extremely hot for maybe a couple weeks out of the year. But there’s something about being out on an exposed patio or deck that really just makes it impossible unless you have a good patio canopy to protect you.

Custom Patio Designs For A Beautiful Home

If you opt for wooden containers to enhance your deck or patio, try redwood which is resistant to rot and they age well with weathering. Choosing wooden containers in a variety of shapes such as square, oblong, and round, adds a lot more variety to your home improvement project. Keep in mind that the larger the pot, the less likely it is to dry out and leave plants dry and brittle.

For container gardening to add to the value of your home and contribute to overall home improvement, it’s important to keep plants watered. If your deck or patio gets lots of sunlight, you’ll need to water more often. If the weather is humid, plants will need even more water. You can position them around the edge of your patio or deck so a sprinkler system contributes to the water they receive.

Closed Sides – Take those same wood pieces and move them snugly together. Now you have closed sides teak planters. These can still offer a more rustic look, or match a paneled table set, but also give you the security that they will hold the dirt and plant in.

Improving your deck or patio can be simple and inexpensive. Container gardening is one way to instantly create a beautiful and welcoming outdoor space without a lot of time or money. You’re just a step away from having an outdoor space you can enjoy for many years to come.
