The Perfect Scented Garden to Surround Your Hot Tubs
Posted by Brody on November 23, 2009What to choose, color or scent? This is in regards to planting a garden, one that will surround hot tubs, or a fence, or the swing set. One aspect to consider is whether it is color that is most important to you, or the scents. Well, have no fear, because both can be achieved at the same time. You could leave it all up to chance, but planning the perfect flower garden will leave you with satisfaction, a calm and precise satisfaction that is not often found in this modern world.
Two ways in which gardens give of scent are through plants that give this off when exposed to heat, such as rosemary, artimisia, chamomile and lavender, or through the flowers that give of scent when they open, such as roses and honeysuckle. While relaxing in your hot tub, not only will you enjoy the benefits of the tub and the hot soak, the natural aromatherapy provided by your garden, but you will also experience the visual treat of butterflies and hummingbirds. And oh, they will come, plant flowers and butterflies and hummingbirds will come. You can design this backyard oasis in steps, building up along the walls, or in the planting of vines to fill in the lattice work and frames of your gazebo.
This is a science, just as in those who create perfumes. This is a consideration that will give personality and character to your own backyard. It will reflect your personality and character. And this a balm for the spirit, for your soul. Bring this into your life, surround your hot tubs with color and charm. Take chances with your choices, plant mint next to the rose bush, plant oregano next to the jasmine, make your choices but whatever you do, plant them just by your hot tub. You will be amazed at your own green thumb, at your own sanctuary.
