Garden with swimming pool

Visiting Galina Bragina. In Galina Alexandrovna Bragina, I got in September. And he stunned with elegacity and some southern flavor in the sunny autumn day. It is located in Khotkovo in the Yaroslavl road, surrounded by the forest from three sides.

Wooden ventiy.

When entering the site along one of the houses of the house there is an original support for Clematis, shirma made of wood. Its patterns are repeated in three arches, a gazebo, the design of window openings of the house. These wooden ventures pass through the entire plot, combining it into one.

Drop the pit - this is not all.

Arrangement of Garden The swimming pool is a dream of any dachank, because often in the dacha after work in the garden in hot weather you want to swim. When they built a bath, I wanted to make a swimming pool. Although experienced people did not advise, the husband was against, but our heroine and her son decided. Two meters deep downstairs, four and a half and five and a half meters wide, made a formwork and flooded with reinforced concrete. Then the bottom laid out the cafeter, the walls painted with waterproof paint. Everyone was done by their own understanding and the advice of craftsmen. The water for the winter was merged, and the spring tile fell off, the paint had shuffled, and the water began to leave. Having had to repair the pool overhaul - to make waterproofing and eliminate the flow at the bottom, as a result, the depth of the basin decreased to 1.7 m. Now the water for the winter does not merge so that the walls are not led, and in front of the frosts in the water they throw logs or plastic bottles Sand.

It turns out that to build a swimming pool - half.

Contain it in perfect condition an incredibly troublesome business. Once every three years in the spring wall and floor must be painted with special paint for pools, of course, it is best to cover its inner surfaces with a special blue film, but it is very expensive.

We'll have to worry about the quality of water. Caring for the pool is not possible without a filter installation, which provides circulation of water and removing insoluble particles, deposited on filters when pumping water. Each week should be applied special chemical preparations for cleaning and disinfection of pools. Two or three times a week to brush with a water vacuum cleaner - to remove leaves, twigs and tweets, and ave. The work here is conducted from the beginning of May to October. Spring - the time of general cleaning, the water is drained from the pool, clean the frogs, the bottom and the walls are drained, then pour clean water from the well, in early May, yellow pollen flies with trees, the pool is not clean, and from the middle of the month, turn on the filter installation, which should Work about six hours daily.

Original paving.

Previously, near the house was a basketball ring, in addition, there was a very shady seat here - for these two reasons, the lawn was meaninglessly, and the hostess decided to make the original paving. Shadow Stony Gorka by this time already existed, from her paving and went. The soil on the plot is a very heavy clay, made a sand pillow. Gradually, ranging from a slide, from the plywood strips made lines of paving, which were to emphasize the shape of the roller boundaries, and on the spot were flooded with cement layer at 7-10 cm. Between individual "plates" left the gap with a thickness of about 7 cm. When the cement grabbed, in His pebbles left, all this platform was made in four days. The gaps between the "plates" squeezed the lawn grass. It is beautiful, but it is inconvenient that a weekly cat is required. In addition, thin and gentle lawnose hijacked weeds. The output was found randomly, in the gap between the plates, Kotul, a wonderful soil Australian plant, which perfectly feels in the suburban land. Its height is just a few centimeters, it grows very tightly in the place allotted him, extremely honey flashes and scoring all growing weeds. Kotula is one of the best plants for landing in the intervals between paving slabs.

But the main thing is still - flowers.

Galina Aleksandrovna is a major role in the life of Galina Alexandrovna, the club "Flower of Moscow", a member of the rose section of which it is. It is not surprising that roses are among the favorites of the hostess of this beautiful garden. In width here and Clematis, Dolphiniums. Galina knows how decorate the summer cottageThe photo below it can be seen.

It grows and blooms in this genus Robinia, in the south of the weed, for us - exot. Here is a huge number of suspended containers with pelargoniums, surfins, begonias, fuchsia, balsamines. Where does this whole beauty winter? Galina Aleksandrovna lives in the 5-storey Stalinist house, in the fall all the pots "move" into the entrance, where they hang them from the second to the fifth floor, and please the tenants at home until spring.

Recently built a new guest house, the hostess calls his housekeeper's house (in the interior design, a variety of butterflies were used), I wanted to arrange a decorative reservoir with a bridge from which it is pleasant to watch the life of water inhabitants. Next was taken by a small grotto, which was conceived to install a mob-forming installation. This reservoir, located under the trees, is covered with a grid that spring together with fallen foliage is removed. At the end of May - June, there are ten days to endure water flowering, then plants and microorganisms clean the water, and it becomes transparent, it cleans the water, according to the hostess, Elday is a good winter, fast-growing aquarium plant, its number in the pond has to keep control. At night, water lanterns on solar panel light up in the pond.

There are no people who would not calm down the contemplation of the pond or did not raise the mood of the rush of the stream. We advise to read - How to make a pond do it yourself.
