How to choose plants for the garden? A short guide to creating a blooming garden
Choosing plants for your garden is the first step on the path to a green, inviting, and pleasant space. Whether you have a private garden, an open balcony, or a small yard - properly matching the plants to the terrain conditions will make all the difference.
Sun or shade
Before choosing a plant, it is important to check how much natural light reaches the area.
Some plants need full sun (6 hours or more per day), others will be content with partial shade, and some will also be suitable for relatively shady corners.
