Plants from the Aroid family (Agasaee) attract us more and more. I was charming tuber calla. They surprise already when the first sprouts appear. Even on the smallest leaves, white strokes that give them decorative for the entire growing season are clearly poured.
Admiring the blooming calves, a desire arises to settle these beauties in its garden. But often flowerfish comprehends disappointment, most often due to the fact that they do not bloom. How to choose a selection of landing material?
The Call tube (rounded shape) must be solid to the touch, but not dry and without explicit mechanical damage (inter-unlock sections are allowed). It is best when small processes are visible at the point of growth. The larger the tuber, the more colors will be.
In the open soil landing the tubers in early May. The landing depth is about 15 cm (large tuber), the distance between them is 40 cm. Pumping the soil on the bayonet shovel, adding well-overwhelmed manure or compost (15 kg / sq.m) and 40-50 g / sq. M complex mineral fertilizers! This is enough for the whole period of vegetation. After planting calila, they form the root system and only then begin to build up a green mass, i.e. Shoots appear in about a month later (usually the first decade of June) so as not to damage the roots that reach the surface itself, the ground at the site of the landing, until sprouts appear, we are handled by hands without any tools.
The landing site should be sunny or half-directed. Calla moisture, but it is also impossible to pour them, especially before the appearance of the first leaves. In hot weather, we water in the evening abundantly, but not often. This is enough to ensure that the plants have juicy, bright foliage and abundant flowering. And one tuber (Kust Calla) will give 7-15 colors, each of which blooms more than a month. In the cut, they also cost more than a month.
So that Calla and next year the same abundantly bloomed, it is important to properly preserve the tuber in the winter, competently organize the period of rest ... in the second half of September (or after the first freeze) we dig plants. A few days, until the leaves are tied, they stay right in the landing room. Then near the tuber (without damaging it), we cut the stem, we rinse and dried in a dark warm dry place (+ 20-30 degrees). Damaged tubers clean and process a fungicide. Old roots should dry and turn into dry twists. After that, we put them on the winter storage in a dry cool place (+ 5-15 degrees) to spring.
How do these plants breed?
Spring tubers, which consist of several rounded tubers, boldly share a knife. Circuit location Treat fungicide or crowded activated carbon and dried. The next day you can already plant in the ground. They grow great and bloom. For the fastest breeding, the tuber can be divided into a larger number of parts (it is important that there is a point of growth on each). But in the first year, the seedlings will not bloom.
Aruum (Sauromatum) also from the family of aroid - a tuber plant with an unusual appearance and an interesting vegetative cycle, if the tuber who you will land, will be large, then in May the plant will bloom, although it is completely without leaves. Inflorescence - pillage of brown-red color. Flowering is short, and in the sun flowers exuded a specific aroma.
In June, the rapid growth of the vegetative part begins, very decorative leaves appear. Their size and number directly depend on the age of the tuber. The stuffy sheet is thick, spotted, in color looks like a snake skin pattern. Also decorative and fruit plants that appear closer to August at the base of the leaves. They look like a pomegranate fruit peeled fruit.
Large tubers that lose the protective layer, without shelter withstand frosts up to -15 degrees. Sauromatum kids are perfectly winter in the open soil. If the tubers are dug up, stored them in a dry cool (+ 5-15 degrees).
I strongly recommend landing the tubers to grow. Located after a dark or hungal basement with a constant temperature in the conditions where the sun fry the sun, and at night there is almost 0 degrees. Rounded tubers that reach in diameter sometimes 30 cm, in the second half of April you can already plant in open ground. The depth of planting is three heights of the bulbs. Place - sunny or half. Regardless, it was planted by the tuber in spring or in the previous year, the first shoots will appear not before the second half of June, since the root system is formed, the development of which begins with the top tuber. We reproduce the Sauromatum with sticking kids and seeds. The dates of the fleshing of tubers and storage conditions are the same as Call.
On a note:
How many lonely people around the world! Just awful! And Russia in this matter is not in the forefront. But in any person wants love, understanding, reciprocity ... You think: everything seems to eat - and the work is good, and the money is not deprived of money, and the apartment, and the car, but the second half - alas - no. Yes, the picture is familiar to many. For such cases, smart people created a free dating site in Nizhny Novgorod. Where on the ad can be found friend, lover and even a satellite of life (it's as lucky).
Fans of aquatic plants:
Nimfei. Very love feeding, every year I lay the fertilizer in chopsticks in every pot. For normal growth, the volume of the root system is very important, so I transplant in the spring, as soon as the wintering period is over. Often buyers complain, they say, my nymphany does not want to grow or bloom. And when talking, it turns out that they bought it in a liter pot. She flier for the first year, then without a transplant, naturally, did not have enough strength.
Flower will be interesting:
Many complain that after flowering at Irisov The foliage is covered with spots, yellowing, as a result, everything has to trim. Do you have such problems?
