Forzing - shrub tall up to 2 meters, sometimes you can meet the bushes up to 3 meters of height. The gray-brown branches of foresomy can be dons, beautifully hanging up to the earth itself, they are well rooted when reproducing with the gifts, as well as rectorant. There are several types of plants, in our region the most common forzing egg-shaped or forzing is medium (intermediate). Shrubs of this species calmly carry frosty winter and sharp differences of temperatures are practically not subject to diseases and pests.
The time of flowering plants - February - March. In early spring, many golden flowers collected into low-mounted inflorescences are blooming in its branches, in the form of a bell. In the diameter, the flower is about 2.5 cm. Forming flowering lasts 20-30 days.

After flowering, green oval-oblong shapes appear on the shoots, a little pointed on the ends of the leaves. With the onset of autumn, the foliage acquires a crimson, golden shade, and the forzing continues to decorate the garden until the winter. Forzion can be considered a symbol of spring approximation, in addition, the plant is undemanding in care and location, it can be met more often in the gardens, in the country's country areas. It looks great both in single landings near the house, on the background of a green lawn or lawn, and in group landings in the garden, is also used for the seated site design.

Forsion landing

Forzition is a popular plant for landscaping European cities, where it can be found in squares, city parks or just on the streets. The secret of the popularity of the plant is not only in an attractive appearance, but also in his unpretentiousness. Forzing landing and care for which it does not constitute any difficulties to grow even at the cottage even the novice gardener.

Choose a place and time for landing

Landing a shrub is carried out in the spring, but it is possible to transplant the bush to a new place and in the fall so that the plant will be able to adapt to winter. Choose for landing solar, well-lit and windless place, especially protected from drafts and cold wind. In the shadow of the Forsia will not give lush and abundant flowering.

What soil is suitable for landing?

For abundant bright and long-lasting blossoms, it is necessary to properly prepare ground for landing. The plant grows perfectly and develops in nutrient, moisture-permeable soils. The best composition of the soil for landing:

• humus;
• river sand;
• sheet land.

All components of the soil are taken in equal parts. When landing in acidic soil is recommended, it is recommended to make lime, charcoal or ash and swap. If the soil is heavy, with weak breathability, it must be thrown by rewinding, peat and river sand.

How to plant forsi seedlings

For planting seedlings prepare pits with a size of 50x50x60. The distance between the shrubs landings is 1,5-2 meters, since the shrub is spread and quickly grow.

Stages of landing:

1. Drainage, consisting of broken bricks, rubble, is placed on the bottom of the pit. The drainage layer is 10-20 cm, a layer of large river sand is covered on top - 5-10 cm, then a pre-prepared mixture of leaf land, sand and peat. For acidic soils added to a mixture of 200 grams of wood ash.
2. Saplings are lowered at the bottom of the pit so that the root neck remains on the surface of the earth. Roots need to be filled with a mixture of prepared soil.
3. Saplings must be well sealed in the ground and pour plentifully.

Forzing care

Near unpretentious forssee is simple enough. It needs a moderate watering, loosening and taking a priority circle, feeding for the formation of flower kidney and pruning.

Watering

In special watering mode, the shrub does not need. In the rainy summer, the bushes of Forzition do not watered at all, it is enough moisture from precipitation. In drought, especially in sultry windmake weather, the soil must be moisturized. It is enough watering 1-2 times a month (1 bucket under the bush). After irrigation, the soil must be deeply loosen (on the bayonet shovel), removing all weeds and climb the compost.

Podchar

Undercasting forsia is carried out three times per season:

1. In early spring, along the priority circle, it is necessary to gently decompose the layer of overwhelmed manure so as not to touch the barrel and branches, then pour well. Such an organic feeding will provide active growth and future lush flowering plants.
2. In April, a complex mineral fertilizer is introduced into the ground (60-70 g per 1 m²)
3. After flowering, the shrub must be filled with a cemeter-universal (100-120 g per 1 m²). This period is the laying of the flower kidney of the future season.

Trimming Forzition

One of the important events that is necessarily enformed into a plant care program - trimming. Proper trimming forms a beautiful, spreading crown of shrub, stimulates the growth of young shoots. The time of pruning forsius - after flowering. Young shoots need to shorten by a third above the strong kidney. Old shoots are not recommended to completely cut, and leave the "pencil" to stimulate the growth of young rigs. In addition, forssee requires regular trimming of the branches of the branches, since they are very quickly rooted. Once every 4 years, the shrub must be rejuvenated to achieve abundant flowering. All old branches are removed under the root, there are several strong young branches.
Trimming forssee in the fall is to remove unnecessary, damaged branches. Pruning should be made early in autumn so that the cuts have managed to drag into winter.

Reproduction

Forzing breeds:

• seed;
• champions;
• cuttings.

Reproduction of cuttings

Vegetative reproduction with green cuttings is a common method of breeding a shrub. Cut the cuttings in June. With a green escape of 15 cm long, the bottom leaves are removed. The cut must be treated with a solution of epine or heteroacexin (placed on 4-5 hours) and land in wet sand to a depth of 3-4 cm. Cuttings need to create a greenhouse effect in the form of a film or a transparent bottle. The distance between landings shared should be respected more than 5 cm. It is produced by stalks 1-2 times a day, it takes more frequent watering into dry weather. Not only green cuttings are used for roouging, but also the weathered cuttings, which are cut in October. They put them immediately into open soil, leaving 2-3 kidneys on the surface surfaces and is covered with dry foliage.

Digging

The reproduction of the lesions is the easiest and easiest way of multiplication of forssee, especially this method of reproduction is suitable for varieties with dynamic shoots that are easily rooted. Lower shoots hanging to the ground, cheer and pinch to the soil at a depth of 10-12 cm, the bark is pre-cut. In the spring, when the new bush is rooted, it is sitting on a new place. Already the next year the plant will bloom.

Reproduction of seeds

Forzing gardeners practically do not multiply seeds, as it is a long and time-consuming process. You can collect seeds at the end of autumn, they are in the fruits-boxes, which are cracking when ripening. Also, the forssee seeds can be bought in a flower shop. Seeds are planted in March in drawers or pots with fertile soil, abundantly water. Seedlings need to cover with glass and regularly ventilated. The first shoots will appear in 4-5 weeks. When the sprouts reached the height of 4-5 cm they are divened to a greenhouse or plant in open ground.

Ever

To admire the beautiful blossom of Forzition not in the garden, but at home, you need to prepare the shoots for the surveillance in advance. Cut the escape is necessary to frosts, choose young annual shoots with a length of 40-50 cm from the core no more than half of the escape diameter, in another case, the escape does not fit. The cutting escape turns into a polyethylene package in several layers and placed in the refrigerator. To wake up the escape, it must be omitted in warm water (30-35 degrees) for 4-5 hours. Forzing branches put into water with the addition of sugar (per 1 liter of water - 50 grams of sugar). After 4-5 days, the kidney will appear on the branch, and after 5 days - the first yellow flowers that will create a bright positive mood with cold winter.

Preparation for winter

Despite the sustainability of the forzing to frost, it must be prepared in advance to wintering. At the end of the summer, it is recommended to feed the plant with a potash fertilizer with a high phosphorus content and to climb the zone of the soil layer with sawdust at an altitude of 10 cm. The bush, especially the young, must be covered with spruce vegetables, dry foliage, branches. Before insulation, shrub branches are tightly pressed against the ground. Many varieties, for example, the formation of ovoid, and do not need shelter at all. It is worth remembering that it is impossible to use an airtight film as a shelter, since the kidney thaws can strap and flowering in the spring will not happen.

Diseases and pests

Force is resistant to many diseases and pests, but still sometimes its infectious diseases occurs:

1. Bacteriosis. Infectious incurable disease. The first sign of the disease is a sudden yellowing of foliage and rapid fading of the whole bush. With a cut of escape there are dark bodies. The souse shrub needs to dig and burn so that the disease does not spread to other plants in the garden. The place where the shrub is processed by a solution of manganese.
2. Withering. A disease at which individual branches suddenly begin to fade. To combat the disease, the spraying of the barrel and branches of the Fundazole is used. For prevention, the disease is used by the special preparation of the venture, which is divorced in water in 2-3 ml per 10 liters of water.
3. Monolion. The main symptom of the disease is dark spots on the leaves. Especially prone to monoliosis unpretentious forzing average. Infection most often comes from bone fruit trees. Soothes affected by monolion are removed and burned. For the prevention, a spraying of a bush is used with a 1% solution of Bordeaux fluid.

Among the main pest of Forzition, nematodes can be distinguished, which attack the roots of the plant, sucking juice from them. Over time, shrub weakens and dies. To prevent their attack on the root system of the plant, it is necessary to displaced the soil with a carbation. In addition, nematodes do not tolerate the sharp smell of velvetsev or calendula. It is recommended to plant them next to forssee.

Forsion in landscape design

Forzing looks great on a dark green background of coniferous plants: Juniper, Tui, ate, as well as on the background of a green lawn. It looks great as a single plant - a bright gold stain in the spring garden and in group landings with other blooming decorative shrubs. Particularly exquisitely and gently looks shorter formation, it is used to decorate the slopes, alpine slides, alive hedges and buildings.

Forzition is an attractive and unpretentious shrub that adorns with luxurious golden blossoms of any plot while many trees and shrubs have not yet woke up from the winter sleep. Having created favorable conditions for the growth and development of forssee, you will enjoy his unusual beauty for many years.
