Plant pavement joints instead of cleaning: Instructions and suitable joint plants presented
Tumblr media
If you have paved paths or a paved terrace, you must permanently clean the joints. Annoying, right? Stop the stress and plant the joints.
Tumblr media
Save yourself the annoying scratching There is probably no more annoying work than cleaning pavement joints . Since you think that you finally have everything ready and schwups look through the joints weeds again. Then the whole game starts all over again. From scratch on the knees and joints. However, you can spare yourself this annoying work. As? By simply planting the joints. You just have to clear the paving joints of the annoying weeds for the last time and you can beautify them with puncture-resistant, flat plants. The practical and optical result can be seen in any case! Here we present you herbs, mosses and low perennials, which are ideal for greening the pavement joints.
So pavement joints are greened
Preparation for joint planting First of all, the weed must come out. This is the most strenuous part of the work, because between the pavement joints often grow plants with long, deep roots, which are difficult to remove. Simple weeding often does not help. But there are tools and methods that make your job easier: Tools with a spike, scratch or knife blade: They are relatively easy to handle. If you work on your knees, you have more power - but the procedure is stressful for the kneecaps and less back friendly. Therefore, put knee pads under and take frequent breaks with stretching and stretching exercises. Electric joint cleaner: Electric joint cleaners are comfortable and efficient. The expensive device is worthwhile only for very large areas. Of course you can also buy the device together with several neighbors. Alternatively, you can also in the professional area ask if you can borrow a joint cleaner. High-pressure cleaners and fire-fighting equipment: They work with water pressure or gas flames. Both reliably remove weeds. More on the pages high-pressure cleaner and weed burner . ❖ weedkiller: You guessed it already - the chemical club should remain the absolute exception. Fill joints with soil After thorough cleaning, fill the joints with sandy, well-drained, and loose soil. The soil mixture is also known as roof garden earth. Spread the earth generously over the joints and turn in. Greening pavement joints So that the pavement joints can be planted, they must not be too narrow. With a width of less than two centimeters, special seed mixtures containing herbs and hardy, small green plants are suitable. You can cover wider joints with flat upholstery. Water the root bales well before inserting. If the root ball is too big, shorten it with a smooth, sharp cut. Most small shrubs are robust and tolerate the cut well. Suitable plants for paving joints:
Tumblr media
Star moss - © fabianammer - Fotolia.com The star moss is evergreen and in spring / summer with many tiny, white flowers littered. It is conditionally resistant. Likewise permanently green are Everlasting, stone crop and amaranth. You can grow the crops mixed or stay the same with a variety - both looks sexy. Just adapt to your taste and the garden style.
Tumblr media
Goldmoss Sedum - © kamolladee - Fotolia.com Sedum also feels comfortable in pavement joints. Most sedum species remain flat and are used to difficult conditions. Occasional entry does not bother the plants. However, they should not be stressed too much.
Tumblr media
Pennywort - © emer - Fotolia.com Also very nice and well suited for joints: barbels and pennywort. The prickly pear looks prickly, but is completely harmless. The pennywort has small, round leaves in a fresh green.
Tumblr media
Wooly thyme - © bildschoenes - Fotolia.com Thyme is also very good in paving joints. There is the thyme not only as a higher herbaceous plant, but also as a flat herb. For example, woolly (spicier) thyme grows only 3 - 5 cm high. With small, pink summer flowers it is a pretty sight. For heavier use, for example in the garden with children, the Roman chamomile and the brown are well suited. Care after planting In the first weeks after insertion or sowing, you must water the joints regularly. Later, no care is needed except occasional pruning. Read the full article
