No Worrying about Dropping Leaves- All plantings, including hedges, shed leaves at different times of the year, as well as in stormy weather, and they create a mess in the yard.

by Sarang Awaze on Mar 18, 2020

In our fast-paced, plugged-in world, it is easy for us to get stressed and distracted which adds more stake to our health.

Here are the seven (7) ways to do it: CLEAN UP YOUR SPACE Cleaning up your space is vital to creating a relaxed atmosphere at your own home. Start small, with a single space like a desk or closet, and work your way up to larger rooms. This might seem difficult at first, but if you dedicate time each day to working on decluttering, then soon you will be able to reap the benefits of a clean, calming environment. You may opt to invest in a few storage boxes or cabinets to hide away craft supplies, clothes, games or whatever needs to be in the room but doesn't need to be on display. Minimize furniture and accessories to only those things that you need the most. PLACE LIVING THINGS Putting up plants or flowers on display helps us to de-stresses the atmosphere of your space. This is also helping to purify the air. Some great choices include the aloe vera plant, which contains a gel that soothes burns and cuts, or the rubber tree plant, which is great for novice plant owners and has strong air-purifying abilities. If you don’t have a green thumb, you may opt to use artificial plants which are becoming the norm in the residential home and apartment buildings. It is now easy to look for a realistic faux plant and there are various designs you can choose from. Here are some of the best ones that are simple yet elegant, you can choose from: SINGLE BALL TOPIARY FAUX TREE – you can place it at the corner of your room to add some life in the room. FAUX RED FLOWERING MULTI CANE DRACENA - this eye-catcher has a striking red color surrounded by bright green hues. It is an impressively lifelike artificial plant that will surely add elegance to your room. FAUX WHITE FLOWERING MAGNOLIA TREE- This white masterpiece is a great decoration that is surely relaxing. FIND A SCENT YOU LOVE The scent evokes strong emotional reactions and contributes to the mood of a room. Your relaxing space shouldn't be near pet areas, the bathroom or the kitchen. In choosing a scent, always avoid those that are too pungent or overwhelming. Instead, focus on calming scents such as lavender, rose, vanilla, chamomile, or sunflower, which have been proven to have relaxing effects. Use scent diffusers, candles, incense or solid air fresheners for subtly incorporating relaxing scents and ambiance. INCORPORATE TRANQUIL PAINT COLORS THROUGHOUT YOUR SPACE Soft colors found in nature are the most relaxing. This isn't the room for brights, harsh colors or shiny textures. Think of the serenity of the calm ocean or sky, the peaceful look of a meadow, or the hush of a foggy morning. Shades of blues, greens, and grays all inspire relaxation. However, if you want to bring nature to the comfort of your own home. You may opt to install a Vertical Garden Wall/ Artificial Green Wall.

Some people opt to have this kind of wall near their coffee table. MINIMIZE/ ELIMINATE NOISE AND DISTRACTIONS While visually stimulating electronics take away from relaxation, music promotes it. During your restorative time, listen to your favorite soothing music. You may also use blackout curtains, double or triple-paned windows. to help eliminate noise outside your home. Also, constantly checking emails and social media can generate stress, especially if you are a student or employee who brings your work home with you. So, try to unplug in the evenings or as much as you can. LIGHT UP SOME CANDLES Light a few candles to cast a serene glow over your tranquility room. It's a candle's flame that helps to soothe our soul – reducing stress and increasing self-awareness. The soft illumination helps us to calm down and even achieve a meditative state. Pick scented candles to add to the overall sensory experience. If you are concerned about allergies, use soy or beeswax candles instead of paraffin wax.

A Handy Guide for Artificial Green Walls, Vertical Gardens & Hedges

by Georgina Oxley on Sep 18, 2019

Your Australian Guide To Green Walls, Vertical Gardens & Hedges. In this guide we explore commonly asked questions, and the basics when it comes to choosing your artificial plants. Given the wide range of sizes, colours, materials and qualities available it is important to understand the fundamentals before purchasing your next green walls. What are vertical gardens? Artificial vertical gardens are made up of a series of fake plants mounted onto a backing material which can be either plastic or metal. The plants and leaves are then securely attached into a floral arrangement made for mounting onto a wall. They are typically modular and are hand assembled into a green wall panel. What are fake hedges? Fake hedges are made using an internal frame which is the clad or lined with artificial foliage. Artificial hedge mats that come in modular forms are typically used to clad either a timber or metal box frame to replicate an artificial hedge using staples, cable ties or other fixing methods. The fake hedges can then be placed in planters or can be self standing. How do you install fake hedges? Fake hedges are installed using a clip and lock system along the side each panel. Once clipped together you can install the fake hedge onto a vertical surface or frame using screws, hooks or staples. The panels will typically come as 1m x 1m panels, however, may also come in other various sizes? Can fake hedges be used outdoors? Fake hedges and hedge panels can be used outside, however, if you want to ensure longevity you should only use UV resistant panels. Many cheaper and more common products are not suitable for long-term use outside. Designer Vertical Gardens are UV resistant and suitable for outdoor use for many years.

Screw, adhere or attach the corner of the green wall to the corner of the wall 5.

You can buy an artificial green wall from Designer Vertical Gardens online, or through their showroom in Moorabbin which offers a wide range of products from more cost-effective green walls to extremely dense and lush vertical gardens. What are the best fake hedges and green walls? The best quality artificial green walls and hedges are dense (using more leaves per m2 than others), they are UV resistant and use real leaf technology ensuring the leaves look real, not cheap and plasticity. High quality green walls and hedges will use non-toxic plastics, and extra foliage. Can I use fake plants outside? Fake plants can be used outside however, the life-span of the plants will vary greatly depending on the quality of the UV resistance. Non UV plants will typically fade within a few months if they are in direct sunlight. UV resistant plants may vary between 12 months and many years depending on the UV quality of the plant. You should always confirm the plants are UV resistant if using them outside for an extended period of time, or use a UV protection spray.
