We are at the gates of Christmas, and today, it’s time to talk about decorating with Christmas pots. The countdown to these special and familiar dates has already begun. As a sign of its proximity: the streets of cities and towns are already dressed with Christmas decorations. But what about you, have you already decorated your home for Christmas?
If you have not yet started with the Christmas decorations, Albergrass wants to give you some ideas on how to decorate your artificial grass garden to welcome Santa Claus and the Three Wise Men.
Christmas pots par excellence
The poinsettia or Poinsettia with red leaves is, without a doubt, the Christmas flower par excellence.
To make your garden smell like Christmas, it is important to have one or more of these poinsettias. You can choose to buy pots of Poinsettia or plant them directly in the ground.
The combination of the red of the poinsettia leaves with the green of your artificial grass is perfect to dress up your garden for Christmas.
Care of Christmas pots
The poinsettia is a delicate plant. It is very sensitive to low temperatures and frost, so be sure to plant it or place the pots in places where it is not very cold.
It should not be exposed to air currents or heat sources such as heaters, stoves, fireplaces.
Regarding water needs, it should not be overwatered and you should avoid leaving a puddle of water in the lower plate or under the pot. Excessive watering can rot its roots and kill the poinsettia.
If you take care of your poinsettias with the above tips in mind, you can enjoy them several Christmases in a row.
Ideas to decorate your flower pots with Christmas flair
In addition to poinsettias, here are some other ideas on how you can give your garden an original Christmas touch.
Wreaths, red and white swags, Christmas lights, fir trees, pine cones, nativity scenes, snow… These are elements that represent and are associated with Christmas.
One way to decorate your garden is to distribute these elements in this outdoor room of your home.
Decorating your flower pots with christmas elements is a great idea.
In addition, you can take the opportunity to make the decorations as a family and enjoy some time together.
