Filling your outdoor space with a variety of plants and flowers is one of the simplest ways to make it come alive. This time of year, just before spring, is ideal for sowing seeds and watching them grow. So, if you're looking to add some plants and flowers to your deck but aren't sure where to begin, keep reading.

Which plants can you use to decorate your deck?

If you're a plant parent with green fingers or not, one of the most important factors to consider when selecting plants is the amount of light available. Start by considering the location of your deck in the garden while determining which plants will be better suited to it. Is it in a shady spot or does it get direct sunlight for the majority of the day?

Most plants grow in direct sunlight, but some plants can become scorched if left in direct sunlight for too long (particularly in summer). Depending on whether your deck is light or shaded, here are a few plants to consider.

Decking that is bright

Sun-loving plants thrive on the decking that receives direct sunshine for the majority of the day. Since the soil dries out easily, these plants need a little extra attention. If you want to use these plants to decorate your deck, make sure you have a watering can on hand.

Making a planter out of composite decking is one of the best ways to add plants to your deck. Many of our customers have asked for help incorporating a planter into their deck designs, and the results are always breathtaking. You'll be able to build your own flower garden or grow a variety of herbs, fruits, and vegetables once your planter is in place!

The use of high-quality composite decking has the advantage of not rotting, warping or fading over time. This ensures that your new garden planter will last for years to come, much like the rest of your deck.

Contact the TimberTech team if you'd like to integrate a planter into your deck design. This is a unique way to add plants to your deck and make it look vibrant and lively in time for spring.

There have been some troubling findings in health news recently. Gertraud Maskarinec and colleagues from the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii found that, regardless of weight, diabetes was at least two times more common among ethnic groups than whites.Also, from a Honolulu Advertiser article: More people are visiting community health centers which provide medical, dental and mental health services to underserved populations, including the uninsured, under-insured, low-income people, immigrants, the elderly, those who live in rural areas and the homeless. Although patient use is increasing, current funding will not provide for program growth. Emmanuel Kintu, Kalihi-Palama Health Center executive director, said his center saw a 21 percent increase in the number of uninsured people it served in 2008, compared with 2007. He said many of the uninsured had recently lost their jobs or seen big cuts to their work hours. Kintu said the tough economic times are forcing his center and others statewide to consider some difficult choices to stay afloat. Those could include turning patients away, he said, or laying off workers.During these tough times, we urge everyone to take responsibility for improving their health and the health of their families. Lā‘au lapa‘au is a cost-effective, natural way to increase physical, mental, and spiritual health, and it’s something you can easily do for yourself. We hope that you try to eat well, sleep, exercise, drink lots of water, and try to decrease stress (maybe through exercise, laughter, meditation, reflecting on the good stuff in your life). Also, incorporating koa (warriors) such as nīoi (chili pepper), ‘ōlena (tumeric), kalika (garlic), and awapuhi (ginger) will strengthen your body. These koa are easy to find and easy to add to your diet. But to learn more, visit our event on April 17. For more info, there's a listing under Events. Please feel free to contact us also.
