Indoor Garden - Plant a Living Picture
Indoor Gardening has entered from corporate house to the favorite wall in your house. Planting a living picture through plants not only add attraction but also provides a soothing charm to your eyes.
If you are looking for a nice picture for your living room... try some indoor gardening in form of a vertical garden. Entire wall can be transformed through vertical gardening or it can be a form of small picture frame with some plants turning it into a live picture. Follow the following step and make your own picture.
Step 1: Assembling of Frame: Buy a pre assembled frame, if you do not get near by. You can make one for yourself by using old plastic trays or wooden box.
Step 2: Gather Cutting: Gather small buds from the succulent plant. Stem of the plants should be at least 1/4 inch long. Set the cutting in a cool place for few days say about 2 days. This allow the stem dry and callus over. You would be needing about 60 buds for 6 by 12 inch frame.
Step 3: Add Soil : Fill the tray first with gravel, sand and then with soil along with the fertilizer. Fix the iron net.
Step 4: Plant the cuttings: Plant the cuttings into the soil. Leave the frame lying flat on a cool place for a week after planting, this would help the plant to take roots in the soil. Once the plant get well rooted place the frame in the morning sunlight for another a month. Water the soil as when it start drying in every 5-7 days depending upon the moisture condition in soil.
Step 5: Watering the Picture Frame: Once the Living Succulent picture is ready, to water it remove the frame from the wall, water lightly and wait till water is well absorbed in the soil.
