Lily garden: landing

First of all, you should choose and prepare a section for planting colors:

  • It must be protected from wind and drafts that destructively affect the plant.
  • The sun rays should fall on the site, since Lily does not like shadow.
  • The soil should be well drained. In addition, it should not be too dense. To do this, it is recommended to break it periodically.
  • As for the acidity of the soil, it differs depending on the variety of the plant. So, garden hybrid varieties prefer acidic and neutral soil, and tubular views are alkaline.
  • A month before the planned planting of the plant, it is recommended to make fertilizers to make a selected area. For this, peat, ash, humid, mineral feeding are suitable for this.
  • Before boarding the bulbs, the selected plot should be abundantly pouring.

The main rules for the selection, preparation and storage of bulbs for landing:

  • First of all, the grade of bulbs should be determined correctly, because the specifics of their cultivation are also related to what kind of plants belong.
  • Choose only healthy and strong bulbs, on which there are no traces of rot.
  • The roots that grow from the bulbs should have a length of at least 50 mm.
  • Acquired bulbs keep in a wet and well ventilated place.
  • Remove brown flakes from the bulbs, too scattered roots. Then hold the planting material in a weak solution of Fundazola.

You can plant the bulbs in the fall, in spring or summer. However, the best option for late-grained varieties will still be the autumn period. So, during the winter, the rhizome of the bulbs will strengthen and start up to the desired size. However, the autumn landing is associated with the risks of the freezing of the bulbs. Therefore, if you wish to plant a plant, which in any case takes on, but are ready to sacrifice it with appearance, then plan the flowers in the spring.

  • Top of sand poured the soil. Then the soil is poured on the site.
  • If Asian hybrid varieties are planted in the garden, then the soil should be aligned. For this, silk or peat are used.
  • With too thick germination of the planting material, the bulbs are separated and seated.
