Hello, welcome to my channel. I'm here to share with you my experience planting flowers. Today, I'm going to share with you the experience of creating a charming chrysanthemum bed. Just like the round flower bed you see in front of you. This spring, I started to build and decided to record this video for it. Let's get started. First, I drew a circle around this embroidered ball flower. Then, I dug a 2-inch, 1-inch-deep ditch at the edge of the circle. Then, I used the remaining cement at home to make a stone shape. This cement has been mixed with sand. You only need to add water and stir to use. I only used two bags of this cement to complete the stone edge of the chrysanthemum bed. When mixing the cement, the amount of water can be slightly reduced. After mixing the cement, I used a plastic bag to shape it into the shape I wanted. Then, I covered it with a round groove. It's very simple. In order to make the cement look less regular and smooth, I specially found some stones and placed them on the side of the plastic bag. This will leave some interesting stone effects when it is formed. You can see the dividing line between the green grass and the brown area in the picture. This is the groove I dug in advance. It is about 2-3 inches wide and 1 inch deep. The purpose of this shallow ditch is to fix the cement stone in this position after it is formed, so that it does not slip easily. A few days later, the cement is basically dry. It rained two days ago. Although there is still some water in the cement stone, it doesn't affect me. I can move it now. After a few sunny days, I will tear off the plastic bag on the cement. Now I'm going to start laying the grass protection cloth. The abandoned stone will also be used to lay in the flower bed. The reason I use the grass protection cloth around the flower bed is because I want to lay a circle of small stone around it. This area will not be changed again. The grass protection cloth can completely prevent weeds from growing out of the stone gap. I use paper and mochi for the middle part. It's because sometimes I might open them to plant other plants. In the middle part, I will also use mochi to control weeds. Okay, it's done now. It looks very good. After a while, I will tear off the plastic bag on the cement stone. The effect will be better. Next is to choose what kind of plants to plant in this flower bed. I choose plants that are one year old. They perform very well in summer. The hotter the weather, the better they bloom and the stranger they look. So I choose them. And the color is also what I want. It's pretty to match the color of silver and red. Because the flower bed under the rice field next to my small flower bed is basically a flower that performs well in spring. And in this small flower bed, I hope it's a flower that performs well in summer. So when the color of spring fades, the color of summer is concentrated in this small flower bed. It gives you a strange feeling. That's the effect I want. After digging the hole, I added some chicken powder and fertilizer to make fertilizer. I really like rice roots. Because it has a lot of colors and the shape is very beautiful. You can have a lot of choices. In addition, the two plants I planted are all leaf-loving plants. The silver one is a snow lotus. Its English name is Dusty Miller. In the hot zone, it is multi-year-old. In the cold zone, it is planted as a one-year-old plant. It will bloom yellow flowers. But for it, flowers are not important. Many people like it because of the color of its leaves. The red one is a leafweed. Its English name is Corneas. It is a more attractive plant. And I planted it in this position. It's a test for it. Next, on the pipe of the automatic watering system, I pulled a pipe over and buried it under the grass. Pull it all the way to this flower bed. Then install a watering hole. That's it. This small flower bed is enough. This line is the trace of the pipe. I dug about 1 inch deep here. Then I pulled the pipe over and buried it. Don't worry. The grass will grow back in a while. I also dug the soft stone here and buried it. Until it goes in the middle of the pit. Then I pulled out the pipe. The whole effect looks very clean and neat. It is very important to set up an automatic watering system for a flower bed. Because it can save you a lot of time. If you don't have many plants, it doesn't matter. If you have a lot of plants in your yard, watering takes a lot of time. So it is very important to set up an automatic watering system. And it's very simple. Under the reflection of the round flower bed, the main thing is to plant flowers that perform well in spring. The main thing is to plant flowers that perform well in spring. With some other plants, such as ferns, persimmon trees, pine needles, summer snow, etc. But they are all flowers in spring. In summer, they usually wither. In the month of January, every day is green. So I decided to plant flowers that perform well in summer in this round flower bed. When the weather is hot, the spring flowers have all withered. At this time, the most beautiful flowers in the garden are these flowers in the round flower bed. Like this rose strawberry, it will give you colors from summer to autumn. From cream white to pink, they are all very beautiful. And then a few others, like the snow lotus of silver leaves, the pink lotus root, and the phoenix flower of the west. They will basically go from summer to autumn. The flowers will continue to bloom. So when I built this round flower bed, I said that it can add a little bit to the level of the plants in the garden. And I planted all summer plants in this flower bed. So when the month of summer comes to rest, this little flower bed will give me a beautiful color. In this way, there will be highlights in different seasons in my entire garden. So far, this little landscape has been completed. The round flower bed increases the level and curve of the garden. I am very satisfied, but I would like to hear your opinions. Do you have any suggestions for improvement? Please tell me in the comments. Thanks for watching! Don't forget to subscribe to my channel.
