When the weather starts to warm up, a handful of plants and flowers will give your outdoor space a spring feel. With their touches of color and texture, flower beds manage to outshine winter. These 15 beautiful flower bed ideas will transform your garden from boring to wow!
A flower bed filled with perennials is just what you need in your front yard. Try white and pink begonias and add some discrete plantings of boxwood, blackberries, daylilies, miscanthus and tall orange lilies to create a garden like this.
Liven up the space under your favorite tree with a circular flower bed contained by pavers. Fill the interior with garden soil and plant a large amount of coleus of different colors, some specimens of impatiens and Veronica, among other plants with warm tones.
Old logs are difficult to dig up, so why not use them for a flower bed? Add some pelargoniums to the center and surround them with orange and gold nasturtiums with variegated leaves, ornamental grasses and deep purple bellflowers.
It is perfectly acceptable to mix ornamental flowers with herbs . Try chives and different species of basil, heuchera, lilies and hostas.
Why not have a flower-shaped flower bed ? This flower bed design is undoubtedly one of my favorites. Plant pink begonias for the petals, blue forget-me-nots in the center, and a green plant like hacquetia for the stems. The scarlet impatiens between the petals add a beautiful accent. Make sure you keep everything neat and tidy.
A hollowed-out trunk can be used to plant a bed of cheerful flowers such as roses, blue irises, red gerberas, daffodils, and white and blue phlox. The sword-shaped green leaves contrast with the softness and brightness of the flowers.
If you have an old wheelbarrow that is past its prime, there is no reason to throw it away. Place it in the center of the circular flower bed that includes impatiens, campanulas and hemerocallis in the front and false sunflowers in the background. The old-fashioned street lamp behind the wheelbarrow gives the flower bed great height and interest.
An old suitcase can be reused, as can an old wheelbarrow. Place the suitcase on a chair and plant some purple and white striped petunias, and white and magenta flowers, among others.
