Brenda says,“To me , nothing says Christmas more than the fragrance and color of clean greenery . Every December , I look around my garden and start collecting sweet greenery to inspire my holiday creativity for my outside container .
“ Holly , cedar tree , cypress , nandina , pine , box , and magnolia are all abundant in my southern garden . I also amalgamate in with my natural greenery some ‘ faux ’ greenery to add richness and length of service to my garden vacation decorating . Using fresh evergreens from your garden is an cheap style to decorate . Also , head to your local glasshouse and require for some cheap ‘ leftovers ’ helps too . Keeping my containers water ( and misted if it has n’t rained ) keeps my verdure look fantastic till the New Year . ”
