Create a garden pond

In the garden of your house is the undisputed star of vegetation. However, more and more people opt to install a small pond where water and nature are founded to offer a unique landscape of unique beauty. Besides decorating, the water will cool the atmosphere of your little garden.

In this report we suggest building your own water space. This is a simple task that you perform yourself without spending large sums of money. Follow the steps below and we provide you with in a short time you can have a small pond at home.

Preliminary considerations
Before you go out to work will have to organize their work. Take pen and paper and draw your garden located and where appropriate, each of the plants that live there. Then, says the area occupied by the pond and within that outlines how to take the raft.

Once ready, you must purchase the necessary materials:

* Rope, the measure will be somewhat greater than the perimeter you thought for your pond.
* Pala.
* Manta EPDM Giscolene of Giscosa.
* Scissors.
* Irregular stones to mark the raft.
* Piquette.
* Hammer.

In your pond, as well as introducing aquatic plants, you may include some goldfish. In any case, it is important that you consider the depth. The plant requires between 20 and 25 cm. background, except the water lilies, which will require about 45 cm, while animals evolve, usually to 50 cm. surface, thus requiring 60 cm. If you're going to combine these options, various terraces have to leave that all can live and survive.

Starts work
The process will continue to develop our pond is the same used in the construction of large dams. On a smaller scale in your garden have a beautiful and original "mini lake" designed for yourself.

First, it defines the perimeter with the help of the string (note the first image). The rectangular shapes are simpler, but it all depends on your talent and your talent. Then use the shovel to dig inside (pictures 2 and 3). Recalls the need to leave if they did lack terraces. Once you've removed all the earth, removing pebbles or rocks and cover holes, the surface should be smooth and continuous.









Extends Giscolene sends rubber so that it covers the whole pond. Adapt it to the contours. It should be part of the membrane on the outside. Use stones or objects that hold weight to provisionally (picture 4). Fill the reservoir up to half, the blanket will be taking the final form, just as seen in the fifth frame. Place the plants you have chosen and ends to fill the pond. Coming to the end, cut from leftover edges Giscolene and sets the membrane to the ground with pickaxes. Finish decorating the pond perimeter bounds the stones, installing light bulbs, introduced fishes ...







Giscolene EPDM membrane of Giscosa
This material provides adaptability, flexibility and durability in building and maintaining a pond. Its use in agriculture and fish ponds, ornamental lakes, ponds and slurry alpechines, snowmaking ponds, irrigation canals and water reservoirs guarantee product quality.

The use of rubber as a core material of these insulation products has helped reservoirs installed in the 70 still in operation today and a long life ahead.
It should also be noted that the blanket Giscolene Friendly Fish is a good ally in ponds where they live aquatic species and facilitating their development and a longer life than other materials. Similarly, any Giscolene sheet has been made non-toxic, so you can live safely with animals.

The impermeable membrane can be achieved in building materials stores. In them, we will find exhibitors with different widths: the length is cut according to our needs up to 20 m. to facilitate handling and performance of work.

The largest flower in the plant kingdom

I like to share these curiosities of nature, linked of course to our affinity in common: flowers, gardens and gardening.

Here is a curious plant, which due to the size of the flower that you see in the image taken from turisku.com, has earned the reputation of possessing "the world's largest flower. The scientific name for this species and was discovered by the team confirmed ago by Dr. Sir Stamford Raffles and the naturalist Joseph Arnold.




His lineage (or genetic kinship with other species, to put it more clearly), has been the subject of some controversy over several centuries. The reason is that their lifestyle is a parasite (not own roots or leaves), but with the peculiarity of being a parasite incapable of photosynthesis itself.



A professional team of Harvard University, the University of Southern Illinois, the Smithsonian Institution and the University of Wisconsin, conducted extensive studies, under the coordination [on general senior researcher Charles C. Davis.

Asmobrará I know they have found certain genetic relationships, with species as diverse as the Poinsettia, Castor and the Higuereta or rubber trees.

TYPES OF ROSES

Speaking of the Rose is talking about the favorite flower for Humanity, the most widely grown and, for many, the most beautiful.

They are so widely used and known not to do many presentations. Know their infinite varieties, the flowers, colors, scents, stories, evocative details ... It's an exciting world. There are even people so enthusiastic that they may create their own varieties of roses.

La Rosa has been made throughout history to intense selection and hybridization with the objective of creating new varieties and forms. The plant is more "worked" there.

They are classified more than 30,000 varieties or cultivars in the world. Each year there are hundreds new. Of the more than 30,000 varieties, are available between 2,000 and 3,000.

Azolla (water fern)

Genus comprised of seven species of aquatic ferns, the only genus of the family Azollaceae. They are floating aquatic plants, small leaves with short roots. Divided fronds whose color ranges between red and purple in full sun and pale green to bluish green in the shade. It grows very fast and is ideal to cover the surface.



Helps control the development of algae by limiting the availability of light. Requires sun or light shade. They float on the surface of the water by numerous small, closely overlapping scale-like leaves, with their roots dangling in the water. Form symbiotic relationships with the cyanobacterium Anabaena azollae, which gives the plant the ability to fix nitrogen from the air.



The carolianiana Azolla, blue green algae stored in their leaves. These algae are capable of absorbing nitrogen from the air, which can then be used by the plant.





She has become a threat to all parts of the tropics, because it covers lakes and deprives the original aquatic plants of light. They are planted in early summer, leaving it on the surface if the water does not touch dry. Multiplication Division kills or side shoot.
