The planting of a Mediterranean garden

When creating a Mediterranean garden, various elements play a role. Furniture and accessories help evoke the warm atmosphere, but the plants truly make the picture complete. Olive trees and citrus trees are perfect for creating the typical Mediterranean vibe. These trees not only look beautiful, but they also bring the scent and feel of the Mediterranean to your garden.

Colorful flowers enhance the warm appearance and add extra atmosphere. Mediterranean herbs like basil and rosemary are also a great addition and provide the delicious scents that immediately remind you of the south.

This way, you can easily add other warm colors of a Mediterranean garden design, such as different shades of yellow, orange, red, and brown. The powder-coated planters are an excellent way to stylishly incorporate these colors into your Mediterranean garden.
