Anyone who has a garden – whether it’s a vegetable patch, a flower oasis or even a proud herb spiral – knows that heartbreaking moment. Just when everything is going well, the neighbor’s cat comes by and declares it his new bathroom. Or your dog who thinks lettuce is the new agility course.

How to shape lavender into elegant round bushes?! We reveal in this article! Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia and its relatives) is like a fashion icon among plants – fragrant, beautiful and with a gentle wild soul. But without the right care, it quickly becomes a disheveled diva that takes up half the garden and loses its charm. So if you want your lavender to remain low, round and wonderfully fragrant – like a small fragrant cushion that has just returned from a spring treatment – then pruning is a necessity, not a whim. It needs to be shaped gently but firmly in the first years after planting. In this article, we reveal how to create a dream lavender bush with sharp scissors, a good sense of symmetry and a little gardening irony.

How to grow bougainvillea that will bloom until late autumn: a Mediterranean diva that all the neighbors will admire https://citymagazine.si/en/how-to-grow-bougainvillea-that-will-bloom-until-late-autumn-a-mediterranean-diva-that-all-the-neighbors-will-admire/ Wed, 14 May 2025 08:57:32 +0000 https://citymagazine.si/en/?p=636637

Bougainvillea is a plant that rewards perseverance. It is not one of those that we nurture with tenderness and excessive care - quite the opposite. If we want to bring out its most spectacular appearance from it, we must set boundaries for it, deliberately "provoke" it and offer it strict but thoughtful care.

"Good fences make good neighbors," the American poet Robert Frost once said. Does this mean that you can become better neighbors if you have a nicer fence? Maybe. Garden fences are intended to protect privacy and mark the property. "Clear borders, good neighbors", to paraphrase the popular wisdom "Clean accounts, good friends". But fences can be much more than a border and protection. We present to you the most imaginative DIY garden fences that will impress even the most demanding outdoor designer.

Raking leaves: 3 reasons why leave the rake alone in autumn! https://citymagazine.si/en/raking-leaves-3-reasons-why-rake-leave-alone-in-autumn/ Sun, 08 Nov 2015 04:44:05 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=197087

Raking leaves is as much a part of fall as shoveling snow is part of winter. Quite often, Sisyphus' task honestly gets on many people's nerves. For all such, there is great news. Raking leaves is actually unnecessary and to some extent even harmful (not to people, but to the Earth)! Just like you shouldn't make your bed, you shouldn't rake leaves. There is a legitimate reason (it has nothing to do with your laziness) why you can leave the leaves alone in the garden without feeling guilty.

This week, however, a green oasis in the form of an urban Cockta garden grew in Ljubljana's CityPark shopping center with the help of collected rainwater. It is a more environmentally friendly art installation that, in the spirit of creating new possibilities from already used products, draws inspiration from recycling, "upcycling", urban gardening and self-care. With its unique communication, Cockta remains unique, from now on in a bottle made of 50 % recycled plastic.
