For an alpine slide, you need to choose a suitable area (it should be in an open place for sunlight). For construction, you will need crushed stone or broken brick. This is necessary for the drainage device. Middle and large stones should also be prepared, which should be beautiful and interesting in appearance. It will also be necessary to prepare plants that will be planted on an alpine slide. When all preparatory work is completed, you can start building.
To begin with, it is necessary to dig a medium -sized foundation pit (not small, but not deep). A pit is necessary for the arrangement of drainage. All broken brick, crushed stone, and other construction garbage need to be dumped into it. Then everything should be filled with sand, gravel or pebbles (you can fill up a mixture of all three materials).
It is necessary to fill with a layer of fertile earth on top and tampedly tamp.
After that, stones should be laid. They must be laid with tiers. A well -moistened earth falls asleep between the layers of stones.
What the alpine slide will look like, will depend on your imagination. The most important thing that should be remembered by all means is that your climber must look beautiful and without plants (t.to. From autumn to spring, nothing will grow on it).
The basis of the alpine slide is usually 5 by 3 meters, with the same number of tiers.
Between the stones, the space should be left so that plants can grow and develop. Symmetry does not need to be observed, so it will look much more spectacular.
It is necessary to make sure that the earth on the mountaineering lay tightly and would not have air traffic jams.
The Earth should be prepared on purpose, there should not be any extraneous plants and weeds in it (it should be clean). The composition of the soil mixture is as follows: peat (1 part), clay soil 3 parts), small gravel (1 part per 5 parts of the soil mixture) and a small amount of mineral fertilizers.
The largest stones fit below, and at the top – smaller. The most beautiful stone is recommended to put on the top of the alpine hill.
After that, you can start planting plants. Although many plant plants as the tiers are erected (they made a tier – planted with plants).
Places designed for planting, it is necessary to spill water properly. Then the hole is made by the scoop. A plant is lowered into this hole (a tree or flower). The earth around the planted plant is compacted, sprinkled a little with gravel. Gravel is needed so that moisture could not evaporate quickly, as well as to prevent the rapid growth of weeds.
