If you want that the interior of your apartment was original and not similar to anything, try to arrange houses the Alpine hill. It is quite feasible, and even the small area of the apartment will not be obstacle. The main difference from the composition arranged in garden is that the taking-away system should be thought over in a different way. In literal sense the Alpine hill arranged in the apartment represents the decorated flower stand.
What to begin arrangement of the hill with
As well as on personal plot, it is necessary to begin creation of the hill with the fact that the place for it is defined and on paper its future exterior is projected. If the sizes of housing allow to locate the hill somehow, it is necessary to choose the place with good lighting, but to plants should not be there too hot or chilly. Flowers to the hill can be planted any, it is necessary to watch only that conditions of the chosen place have not gone to plants to the detriment.
It is the best of all to combine creation in the apartment of the Alpine hill with carrying out repair. But if it is not expected in the near future, it is possible to carry out all works with the minimum disorder. Everything has to be well organized. For a start we prepare tools for work and components of future composition. It can be: - tanks for flowers, reservoir; - stones – landscaping elements; - color pebble, decorative stones – for decoration of the soil; - piece of polyethylene – it is laid on the floor in foundation of the hill as insulating material; - polyfoam, glue, polyurethane foam.
Depending on imagination it is possible to use also other elements.
Creation of the Alpine hill
On floor the piece of polyethylene on which stones for creation of contour of the basis give all the best is spread. Them it is necessary to try to arrange most naturally. In the middle of contour, on the place where creation of the following tier is planned, bricks, pallets, forms for flowerpots have. If creation of artificial reservoir is planned, it is the most logical to arrange it at the first level of design. The turned-out gaps, free sites are shifted by polyfoam and blown by polyurethane foam. Creating the Alpine hill, it is required to maintain certain terms – the used building materials have to dry up. Then take all forms from openings under pots and where it is necessary, cut off foam. Tanks for flowers fill with drainage, nutritious substrate. This to pochvosmesye can decorate polyurethane foam also.
Each of the subsequent tiers of design is arranged by the principle of lower.
When the design is completely ready, it is time to plant plants at last. After that the rock garden is decorated as it is necessary for soul – it is possible to use beautiful stones and shells, clay vessels and branches brought from the wood and snag of unusual form.
