Verdeinik lily-of-the-valley: description, care, cultivation, watering and reviews
Distributed in the nature of the southern regions of Primoryethe representative of the family Primrose Vertebrate, a caged lily-of-the-valley - a spectacular perennial with beautiful spicate inflorescences and a hard-to-pronounce official name of Lysimachia, which, however, is rarely remembered by an ordinary gardener.
Meet: Lily-of-the-Valley Vertebral
This plant with a strong light pink rhizome,very similar to the rhizome of the lily of the valley, the signs of which are noted in the name. The tall straight stalk of the vertebra is slightly pubescent, densely leafy and ends with a magnificent inflorescence-ear consisting of small white flowers and having the form of an elegantly drooping cone. In height, the plant reaches 0.9-1.2 m, and the length of the inflorescence often exceeds 18-20 cm. Such characteristics contributed to the introduction of the species into culture, which happened a long time ago, more than a century ago. The best known is the Ledi Jane variety, characterized by strong erect shoots (0.6-0.9 m tall) and very long flowering (15-20 days) beginning in the second half of July.
Lilies of the Valley: landing and grooming
Populating low-lying meadows and banks of rivers,wild wild boar gave love to increased humidity and cultural species. Therefore, this factor must be taken into account when choosing a place for planting a plant in the garden. It does not matter the structure and fertility of the soil, the main requirement is only to ensure sufficient humidity of the site and its location is not in the bright sun. But nevertheless sites with a sliding passage of the sun, periodically illuminated and shaded, and also with not heavy loamy grounds are preferable.
The lily of the valley lobster easily tolerates stagnation of moisture, and even a close approach to groundwater will not do him any harm.
Features of reproduction
Lilly-of-the-valley vertein is easily propagated by seeds,division of the rhizome, cuttings, root offspring. Vegetative methods are the most acceptable, since the plant quickly acclimates and blooms. In addition, it is much easier to breed a bush during transplantation than to sow seeds, often applying a seedling method, diving, growing and then planting it on a permanent bed. Culture can grow in one place for 10 years or more, but it is necessary to transplant it from time to time. This will help to avoid chopping inflorescences and ensure normal decorativeness. The flowering of a young plant, transplanted by cuttings, division or the offspring of a root, is expected the next year.
Seed reproduction is rarely used. Seed or seedlings are sown on flowerbeds in June. Possible and sowing for the winter, which is held in September. Blossomed lily-of-the-valley verbaine on the 2-3rd year. Let's consider the peculiarities of each method of reproduction.
Fragment of the rhizome
Perform this operation in the spring, beforeThe plant will grow in growth and release leaves, or in the beginning of autumn, when flowering is over. The plant is excavated, a clean and sharp knife divides the rhizome into parts, each of which must have 3-5 renal buds. Slices are powdered with pounded charcoal or oiled with pharmacy greens. Plant the plants in a prepared place, maintaining an interval between them of 30-40 cm. Despite the unpretentiousness of the plant, the soil for planting is best fertilized with high-quality organic (humus), adding 5-6 kg per 1 m2.
Reproduction by root offspring
The ability of the rhizome in a culture such asLilly of the valley, creep with an enviable speed, makes it possible to cut off offspring without damage to the uterine plant. Pieces of rhizome are processed with "Kornevin" or any other biostimulant and planted, deepening at the same level as they were located, being the offspring of the main root. It is better to breed a vertebra in this way in the spring. Autumn plantings are also possible, but they are carried out 3-4 weeks before the onset of stable frosts. During this time, the spine will have time to settle down and grow stronger, so that the winter burdens can subsequently be successfully carried over.
The main stages of care for planting
Of all the species of lysimchia, the lily-of-the-valley vertebra -this is the least expanding species. But you still have to control its cultivation, periodically suppressing its possible "attempts", unless it is planned.
Do not forget about the special love of plants forabundant moisturizing. Dry up areas with plantings of the werewolf should not: even short-term droughts can significantly undermine the beauty of the plant. Watering should be regular and generous, welcome and sprinkling. During the winter, all the stems of the lily-of-the-valley vertebra are cut to the ground, the site is mulched with humus, which will protect the plant from frosts and feed it. Lizimahiya does not need a shelter for the winter, she is quite good at it.
Weeding and loosening is carried out as far as possibleneed, for feeding, a vertebra is usually indifferent, but before flowering it is fed with a full complex fertilizer with microelements, which prolongs the flowering period and increases the exotic beauty of the plant.
These are the characteristics of growing this unpretentiousa culture known as the Lilly-of-the-Valley verbiage. Care for her is also uncomplicated, but for all its simplicity, the plant gives the gardener the elegant, exquisite beauty of the inflorescences.
