ABOVE An hour or so with a water blaster can bring up grubby pavers like new Colour in the garden Pretty up planters and beds with seasonal colour. Bunnings Greenlife buyer Clare Taylor says, âPerennials such as bougainvillea, hibiscus and crepe myrtle look great in garden beds, while dahlias, petunias, begonias and marigolds are great for pots in a sunny spot. In shadier areas you might like to try impatiens, native violets, hardy outdoor ferns and perennials like gardenia, lavender, federation daisies and fuchsias.â Stay on top of watering to keep it all looking its best. SHOP FLAMELESS) an Boost the barbecue With extra people around, the barbecue is bound for a workout, so be sure itâs up to the task. Bunnings barbecue specialist Guy Davies suggests starting with an external scrub using hot soapy water, then giving the grill plates a thorough clean. Inspect the burners to ensure they're not covered in grease and grime. âClear out the grease tray and add fresh Samba [fat absorber],â says Guy. âFor gas barbecues, check the regulator and hose for any splits or missing seals.â Set an alfresco scene Socialising and relaxing is so much better in a reinvigorated entertaining area. Give paths and patios a water blast and treat outdoor furniture to a wash and gentle scrub with detergent. Check the care label to see if you can pop outdoor cushion covers in the washing machine or, if they're beyond salvation, try to get replacement covers. Adding a stylish outdoor rug and a scattering of new cushions will also give an instant lift. Green up outdoor areas Even a few plants can revitalise a lifeless corner. On a deck or a patio, Clare says to use as big a pot as you have space for. âPalms and strelitzias work well in large pots to create a tropical vibe, and dwarf bougainvillea will give a lovely display of colour,â she says. For fragrance, she suggests pots of small perfumed shrubs such as boronia, pendulous camellia, lavender and geranium. A trio of pots in different sizes with a mix of contrasting plants also looks great. In a tight space, use hanging plants as a cascading verdant backdrop, such as trailing devil's ivy, rhipsalis or hoya. 1130mm assorted Dahlia Dahlinova - Dahlia pinnata plant in Northcote Pottery âItalianâ 12cm terracotta pot, $1.69, I/N: 2833746 (plant sold separately). 2 Selleys âSugar Soapâ cleaning wipes, $6.74/pack of 25, I/N: 1210330. 3 3M 80-grit medium sanding sponge, $4.98, I/N: 0319233. & Lytworx battery operated flickering light LED flameless candles, $24.98/pack of 4, |/N: 0118301. 5 ScotchBlue âOriginalâ 24mm multi-surface painter's masking tape, $9.45/55m, I/N: 0142426. 6 Wagner âW100â wood and metal paint spre r, $125, I/N: 0055604. 7 Dulux âWeathershieldâ low sheen exterior paint in True Red, $63.88/1L, I/N: 0144803. 8 Mr Fothergillâs âComedy Mixedâ mini pansy flower seeds, $4.94, |/N: 2961607.
