Spring has sprung and summer's just around the corner. If you're anything like me, you're probably itching to brighten up your outdoor space and make your home stand out in the neighbourhood. But let's face it, gardening can be a real pain in the petunia.
That's where Boma's Bloomin' Bedding Bundles come in. With a wide range of beautiful plants, including Petunia, Bacopa, Nemesia, Geraniums, Lobelia, and more, these bundles will have your garden blooming in no time. And the best part? They offer local delivery in London, so you don't have to lift a finger (except maybe to place your order).
But what can you do with these plants to make your home stand out?
Here are some tips:
-
Hang 'em high - Hanging baskets are a classic way to display bedding plants, and for good reason. They add a pop of colour to any outdoor space and can be hung from a porch or balcony. Mix and match different varieties for a stunning display.
-
Bedding beds - Create a sea of colour by planting your bedding plants in garden beds. You can create patterns, mix and match colours or go for a more natural look. The choice is yours!
-
Window boxes - If you live in an apartment or have limited outdoor space, window boxes are a great way to display your plants. They add a touch of charm and can be easily switched out as the seasons change.
-
Petunia petal paths - Create a whimsical and colourful path by planting petunias in a row. It's sure to catch the eye of anyone passing by.
-
Geranium gardens - Geraniums are great for adding height to your garden beds. Plant them towards the back of your beds and let them grow tall and proud.
Now, I know what you're thinking - "I'm not a gardener, I'll just end up killing these plants." But fear not, even the blackest of thumbs can succeed with these bundles.
Here are some planting and care tips:
-
Soil matters - Make sure you're planting your plants in soil that is rich in nutrients and well-draining.
-
Water wisely - Don't overwater your plants, but don't let them dry out either. A good rule of thumb is to water when the top inch of soil is dry.
-
Sun or shade - Check the plant tags to see whether your plants prefer sun or shade. Plant them accordingly.
-
Deadhead regularly - Removing spent flowers (deadheading) encourages new growth and prolongs the blooming period.
-
Fertilize - Give your plants a boost with fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. Follow the instructions on the label for the best results.
Now, I know what you're really thinking - "Okay, but what if I kill these plants anyway?" Don't worry, we won't tell anyone. Just order another bundle and try again.
