Bathing, landing in open ground
The easiest way to start in my own swimsuit on the plot - to buy ready seedlings and put it on the flower bed. Special skills for its cultivation will not need, but it is important to remember one feature of this culture: the trolly grows only in the wet soil and if you put it in a dry ground, he will die.
Choosing a Place Planting Bathing and Soil Preparation
Choosing a landing place, pay attention to the area with scattered light. It may be a cozy place under high decorative bushes or a rocky slide. The main thing is that the bright sun is not shining for a swimsuit.
You can plant a swimsuit and on an open flower bed, but you have to be prepared for the fact that her bloom will be short-lived, and the flowers will be faded and small.
There are no requirements for the composition of the soil at the swimsuit, so it is not necessary for serious preparations before landing. But a good effect on the development of the flower will have a medium census ground. It is also desirable that in the selected area there was no water stagnation.
If there is a desire to create the best conditions for the trollysis, you can add a slightly mixture of peat with humus and 10 g of nitroposk to the landing well. And if the plant is planted in the sandy mixture, it is desirable to add a moss that will ensure moisture preservation.
Did you know? The swimsuit is not adapted to both dry and sandy and raw and wetlands. In them, she will not be able to develop and will soon die.
Planting a swimsuit on a flowerbed
The swimsuit landing needs to be carried out in August. Although all its variations are frost-resistant, but young plants must grow and increase the rhizome until winter. If you put a trollius later, he will probably die with the arrival of the first frost.
All the varieties of swimsuit quickly acquire the shape of a gustant bush, so planting plants are needed at a distance of 50 cm among themselves. It is necessary to deepen the root neck of the plant for 2 cm. Immediately pruning sheets is carried out so that the rooting has passed successfully. New foliage blooms already two weeks after landing.
Advice! A swimsuit can grow in one place for a long time, so the plant transplantation can be carried out once every ten years.
Bathing, garden care
Trollus need to water all the time, periodically make fertilizers and trim dried shoots. If you stick to these elementary rules, the plant will grow rapidly and even delight double bloom for the season.
Watering and weeping swimsuits
The plant needs to be watered often, but without excesses: the swimsuit should be in moistened soil without stagnation of water. Any deviations in the direction of non-volatile or overvailing will adversely affect the growth and flowering of culture. This moment is especially important in caring for young bushes.
The removal of weeds is a mandatory point in caring for a swimsuit. To keep strength, you can climb the bush. This will allow you to maintain moisture near the roots and will not give the weeds to "stroke" the plant. But if the mulch does not fit into the landscape design, you can do without it.
It is also carried out frequent soil loop to a depth of 2-4 cm, but not deeper in order not to damage the fragile root system.
On a note! The swimsuit is a frost-resistant culture, so it is not necessary to build a shelter for the winter.
Using a bathing fertilizer
The swimsuit is unpretentious flower, so you do not have to make a lot of fertilizers. To enhance flowering in the spring, fertilizers are made (it is better to do before the appearance of flowers). Then with the interval in two or three weeks there are two more feeding.
For trollys, it is possible to use nitroposk (5 g per bucket of water), urea (1 tbsp. Per 10 liters of water) or complex organic fertilizers (agricol). Well responds with a swimsuit on making humus and peat.
Advice! After completely drying the above-ground part of the swimsuit (this happens in October), you need to cut off all the leaves, leaving short stuffs. It is impossible to do this prematurely, otherwise the kidney will strongly weaken, and the blooming will be underdeveloped.
Pests and sickness of swimsuit
This culture is characterized by increased immunity to diseases. The only microorganism capable of hitting the swimsuit is a fungus. To avoid this, you need to adhere to the required watering mode and delete dried leaves on time.
On a note! Pests bypass the bath side. This is explained by her poisonousness.

Seeds of swimsuits are kept by autumn. You can search for them in open primer, but to ensure a high germination, they need long stratification. Therefore, seeds seeds closer to winter.
Seed material is better to sow in loose breathable soil. The best option will be a mixture of peat, earth and sand (2: 2: 1).
Shoot actively appear in the first day days. If the weather is hot, they need abundant watering and shelter from the destructive sun.
As soon as germinals acquire a couple of full leaves, you need to dive them. Separate sprouts need 7-10 cm each other. A year later, the rapid swimsuits can be transplanted with a permanent flower bed.
Reproduction of the division of the bush swimsuit
Adult plants determine the division of the bush. In the fall, the swimsuit is digging, divided into separate deteen with roots and shoots, then planted on the prepared place. Before the onset of cold, new bushes are safely rooted. If the division of swimsuit is carried out in the spring, it is possible to do it until the moment of flowering.
Important! Young bushes swimsuits need mulching.
