In my previous article ‘The Greening of home and garden,’ I will write primarily gardens – but they practice writing at home, so this article focuses on the external environment-friendly Garden, the home – in the garden. And can be a garden no matter how small the area is available for you. Small balcony to accommodate a variety of pots of plants – flowers, shrubs and dwarf fruit trees. All plants absorb carbon dioxide and emit oxygen – so a few more increases in the whole! You think that the garden is automatically defined as environmentally friendly. But this is not always the case. The plants, of course, but this is what we do to maintain them, to determine whether the garden is all green, or not. They also deny or significantly reduce the ‘gift’ plants make excessive use of chemicals in the environment through the control of pests and disease, by wasting water, and composting and mulching. Not everyone is like gardening – what should I do? Do not cement over the factory – as I saw it done too many places. Choose low-maintenance path – although I must say, no garden is completely free of maintenance needs. But you can reduce the household chores to a minimum of light. Or simply plant the trees, bushes and shrubs. Most rarely require pruning or after feeding are established. Bushes and shrubs will need some irrigation – or, depending on the selected plants. If you think that plants such as rosemary, azaleas and rhododendrons – you get flowers (color), and even something for the roast lamb (rosemary). They need feeding once a year. Watering can, a simple irrigation system solves the job site that for you. Allow the leaves to mulch will fall – as well as in nature. If you like the garden, you can have it! The following will help ensure that the eco friendly gardening practices. Mulch – this saves water and protects plantsEstablish a compost heap and / or worm farm – somewhere in the kitchen and all the greens in the garden pruning. Try companion planting to combat pests in the garden. Organic plant protection products – buy or make yourself. Watering: Transforming the household plumbing to act ‘gray’ water in the garden instead of using the city’s offer – the cost will be recouped. And consider a tank (cistern) to capture the rainwater from the roof – and use it for garden irrigation system. If you have a place to plant a tree, then one of the plant. One tree will absorb approximately one tonne of carbon dioxide during its lifetime. Choose plants wisely – if the area is exposed to drought, low rainfall, or a course, you can not build a water garden related. These and other steps have a significant impact and contribution to reduce carbon dioxide in the home and making sure the environment will be cleaner for future generations,
