A wheelbarrow full of flowers
You can catch the passerby’s eyes with this original idea. Imagine a clod of flowers just in the centre of your home garden, which is in a rustic style. Complete the natural and rural ambient by using a metallic or wooden wheelbarrow in stead of the common pot or flower box or container.
Perforate the wheelbarrow base and also wallpaper it inside using the plastic foil which is keeping the soil in. Then put in a pebbles and sand coating for an optimum drainage and just above a king of natural penetrable mattress. Only after this procedure you’re allowed to add the soil which has to be appropriate to the needs and growing conditions of the flowers and plants that you want to plant in.
Pink flowers symphony
Of course, you can choose any color combination, but we’re suggesting the pink flowers. You’ll see the happiness and tenderness of pink flowers and how they match the greenery.

To make this particular pink flower arrangement, you’ll need 3 pink Fuchsia (Fuchsia hybrida), 3 flowing Lobelias (Lobelia crinus), 6 Petunias (Petunia hybrida pendula) from which 2 bright pink, 2 dull pink and 2 violet petunias, then 1 Verbena hybrida pendula, 1 Geranium cinereum, 1 Pelargonium peltatum, 3 appleblossom Twinspur (Diascia barberae), 2 Indian nettles, clay granules and fertilizer manure.

Mix clay granules with fertilizer manure and fill the third inferior part of the wheelbarrow with. Then plant by one of lobelia, Indian nettle, verbena, geranium and pelargonium and the 2 dull pink petunias, in a marginal disposing. Add the soil mixed with organic fertilizer, completing the first floral level. Then plant the second level, bringing closer to the centre. The last flower floor is just in the centre of the wheelbarrow, above the other flowering plants. There come the violet petunias, as a surprising patch.

Pot flower arrangement’s care
All the flowers and plants above love the sun, so you have to put the arrangement just in the centre of your home garden, or in a full light and with directly sun place. Also it needs a lot of water, especially in the hot summer days, even twice or three times a day. You can also sprinkle the floral arrangement in the evening. Break the dried flowers to prolong the flowering period.

This is our suggestion if you love pink and pink sun lover flowers too.
