Flower beds are often placed where people first arrive: entrances, guardhouses, lobbies, driveways and walkway corners. If the bed looks tired, the whole property feels neglected.

Flower bed upkeep includes

  • Removing weeds and dry leaves
  • Replacing dead or weak plants
  • Adding soil or compost where beds have sunk
  • Improving plant arrangement for cleaner spacing
  • Adding mulch to reduce weeds and keep soil neater
  • Choosing seasonal flowering plants where suitable

Good locations for flower beds

  • Home entrance areas
  • Guardhouses and driveway edges
  • Hotel lobby approach areas
  • Office and showroom frontage
  • Residential garden borders

Plants often used for colour

  • Ixora for strong tropical colour
  • Hibiscus for Malaysian garden character
  • Bougainvillea for sunny areas
  • Lantana for hardy flowering groundcover
