The hustle-bustle of modern city life is increasingly leading couples, families and individuals to search for a bit of peace and quiet away from it all: we increasingly see demand for homes in the countryside, away from the city.
Many of our customers from large cities across Italy and Europe have chosen the Marche as their destination, both for accommodation that acts as a second home during the holidays, or to settle permanently. We often hear the same repeated request: for a large country garden. The garden, a lush green space with plants and flowers, perhaps fruit trees and even a vegetable patch, and where it is possible to relax and unwind.
Here at Marche Country Homes we strongly believe that every aspect of the house, including the exterior, should be looked at in detail: it’s why we offer our customers a comprehensive consultancy service, headed by expert local architects and garden designers, which focuses on the restoration and renovation of both the property and its surroundings.
The Flora of The Marche: A “Spontaneous” Country Garden
The biodiversity of the Marche region, so varied and distinctive, means that over 3000 plant species spontaneously grow in the area. Obviously, these native plants will vary depending on the precise location, either near the sea, on the hillsides or even in the mountains; the good fortune of buying a house in the Marche is precisely this: you can choose the exact environment that suits your tastes in garden design.
Specifically, the Marche soil is part of the Mediterranean scrub, with woods and undulating terrain of variegated colours. It is not uncommon to find huge expanses of sunflowers as you move around, interspersed with wheat fields, imposing hedges and centuries-old trees surrounded by the sea or mountains in the distance: this and so much more form part of the Marche flora. .
How To Take Care Of Country Gardens
Country gardens will have spontaneous vegetation within them, such as flowers, hedges and fruit trees, but also and above all flowers and plants that you specifically decide to plant there yourself. A well-kept garden is always a welcoming space, for adults and children alike, and, for this reason, with a little care and patience it can remain so for many years thanks to some initial help from experts in the field.
Useful Tips For Better Managed Country Gardens
First of all, after evaluating the soil and having planted only flowers and plants ideal for that habitat, it is important to provide those looking after the garden with a detailed overview on how to take care of them, how much water they need, how often, if it is necessary to install irrigation systems or add nutrients periodically … the solutions will certainly be varied, from the simplest of touches to elaborate systems for those who with green fingers who really love gardening.
Often there’ll be the option to create a small – or even large – vegetable garden, perhaps separated from the main garden with a fence, to create an area where you can grow your very own kilometre zero produce!
Each area is unique and idiosyncratic, so employing an architect for the design and a competent expert for the technical and operational aspect is essential so that your country garden can truly be that out-of-town Paradise that you’ve always wanted.
