Anemones planting and care
Spring anemones, or anemone, usually beginblossom even before the trees and bushes are covered with green thick, good foliage. Anemones should be planted in places shady or semi-shaded. These plants feel great if they are planted near shrubs or under tree crowns. Very beautiful look anemones, planting and care for which is very simple, if they are placed on the background of spirals and dwarf barbarians, thereby shading the entire beauty of their spring tender leaves. For example, anemone forest is one of the most beautiful plants that occur in our forests and meadows.
They can also be combined with primroses, pansieseyes and small-mouthed. It is required to know that all windswepts prefer humid humus light soil. And also it is necessary to say that under anemones it is required to maintain the soil moisture, until the end of the season, even after the stems have died.
Spring anemones grow very rapidly, creatingvast, fairly dense, sometimes loose teeth. If the curtain presses its neighbors or loses its decorativeness, then a transplant is required. All anemones are best planted in the middle of summer. Of course, if there is a need, then the transplant can be done both in the beginning of summer, and during the flowering period of anemone. When transplanting does not necessarily dig out of the plant completely. Many types of anemones can reproduce very well by separating the pieces from the rhizome where there are kidneys.
Whichever anemones you choose, landing and care forthey are similar. When planting, the rhizome should be placed at a depth of up to 10 cm. Some of the windswepts, such as the rock and oak forest, can also be multiplied by parts of the bush, small offspring. However, when planting these species, it is necessary to ensure that at the soil level the root neck remains at the plant. After anemones have been planted, they need regular watering. As already mentioned, if you want to breed anemones, planting and caring for them, in general, it's not a difficult thing, they get along wonderfully in a new place.
All anemones, planting and care for them correctlyis carried out, multiply well by sowing seeds. Plant seeds are recommended for sowing in the ground for the winter, you can do it in the spring, however, in this case they need to conduct a preparatory cold stratification. The first sprouts germinate 2-3 weeks after planting. Young seedlings grow and develop rapidly, flowering begins in the second year.
Fresh planting anemones should be mulchedpeat or humus. It is best to mulch the fallen leaves of trees such as maple, oak, linden or colony apple trees, planting and caring for which are also interesting. This will serve as an analogue of forest litter, to which anemones are accustomed in the conditions of nature. In case the crown anemones are grown on a slice, then the fertilizer should be applied when buds appear.
Not bad to apply for mineral fertilizingcomplex fertilizers. Watering is required during flowering. Because of such unpretentiousness in watering, anemone can be planted in flowerbeds where watering is problematic. In the autumn, before the onset of winter, they are required to cover with damp manure or herbal compost.
As already mentioned about anemones, care and planting forthese plants are not at all complicated, any amateur gardener can do. However, there are exceptions, for example, heat-loving anemones, they have tuberous rhizomes. The capricious anemone is considered to be the most capricious. For wintering, they need careful shelter for the foliage of trees. Dig up the tubers after the period of vegetation has come to an end. First, the tubers should be dried, the temperature maintained at +20 - 25 degrees, then they should be folded into one layer in boxes and placed in a ventilated warm place, where they will be stored at a temperature of no higher than +20 degrees until autumn.
Plant tubers in the ground in October orearly in the spring, as soon as the snow melts. They can be planted in parts or entirely, but you must always leave a "peephole". It should be noted that if the tubers were in the vault, they should be soaked in warm water for a day before planting.
