If you have a north-facing garden where plants struggle to grow or you are simply a very busy person, we recommend considering artificial plants.
Not only do they look natural, but they are also very durable over time and can be installed in any type of space. Moreover, in our fast-paced world, you don't have to wait for plants to grow anymore, and your dream of having an eternally green garden can quickly become a reality. Here's how.
1) Replace natural grass with artificial grass
Synthetic turf is a convenient and economical option for landscaping outdoor spaces. The texture of this type of turf mimics natural grass blades very well, not only in terms of appearance and feel but also behavior.
There are, therefore, models of turf that when you step on the grass blade it returns to its original shape after a minute or two, just like natural grass, offering a similar feeling to the touch as when you step on natural grass.
Being a long-term investment, before purchasing such turf, you need to inform yourself about its resistance, its behavior in the face of UV rays, usage recommendations (whether children can play on it, whether it is recommended for heavy traffic, etc.), and colors.
The latter is an important aspect because monochrome turf, which is also the most economical, does not succeed in conveying a very natural look to the garden, unlike those that contain at least 4 different shades of grass.
2) Install artificial hedge
Consider using an artificial hedge, which is very similar to a natural one but is cheaper and requires much less maintenance time. Moreover, the qualities of an artificial hedge are the same as those of a natural one because it reduces visibility from the outside and provides a high level of shade.
