Honeysuckle honeycomb - what kind of plant?
Previously, bouquets from the flowers of the hunter gave a beloved person - they symbolized loyalty and constancy. Now it is a traditional garden plant, just like Clematis and plenty roses, continues to occupy an honorable place in the garden.
Liana honeysuckle hurting is especially common in the Caucasus, in South and Central Europe. Beautifully blooms, wriggling, reaching 4-6 meters in height. Young shoots light green, and on the sunny side - a purple-red shade. The leaves of the plant below are bluish-gray, and from above - dark green. They retain the flower range until late autumn, falling out one of the latter.
Flowers have up to 5 cm long and placed in the sinuses of the surrounded top leaves. Tint outside - magenta or purple red. Pleasant fragrance, especially in the evening, attracts bees. One flower will delight the dacket eye for 3, a maximum of 4 days. In general, the honest honeriflation blooms within three weeks.
Fruits have orange-red color and small fruits. From four years, the plant blooms and fruits. The growing period - from the first half of April to the end of September-early October. Resistance to low temperatures average. The life expectancy of the plant is 50 or more.

Reproduction of honeysuckle honeycomb
Increase the amount of decorative lian in the garden, using:
- Cuttings.
- Seeds.
- Digging.
Shining honeysuckle
In early July, after the completion of flowering, cut a cutlery with two interstices. The top leaves on the cuttings are shortened, and the bottom - cut off.
We prepare the soil - mix the peat, coarse sand and garden land in terms of 2: 2: 1. Sing the seeds in the greenhouse, the distance between the shoots 20 cm. Alive three times a day.
By the beginning of the winter, the shoots cover the peat, and the honeysuckle honeriflation waiting for us in the spring. So that the plant develops faster, when landing the root neck, plant a little deeper.
If the cuttings immediately fall into the ground, without a greenhouse period, at best, half of them will germinate.
Reproduction of seeds
The reproduction of the plant seeds is a complex process. In addition, the long-term storage of them leads to damage. From the collected five years ago only 6% germinate.
After the completion of the flowering plants we collect seeds. I carry the pulp, rinse, dry and stored at room temperature.
Before sowing seeds expose stratification. With respect to 1: 3, mix them with wet sand and put it in a cool place. You need to watch the sand be wet.
We plant at a depth of 2 cm. Even at the optimal temperature of 20 degrees, they germinate very slowly.
In mid-April, seed seeds together with sand into the open ground. It is desirable that the plot is in the shade.
It is easy to care for young plants: we regularly pour and weep. In the fall we sit on the desired place in the garden. So that young bushes are not freezing, in the first 2 years we mulch peat.
Reproduction by chains
The fastest and least time-consuming method is rooting with the tanks. Cut the lower twig, and the place of the outbreak is checked into the ground. We do it in the spring, so that the gods can be launched, and already at the end of the autumn remove it from the parent plant.
Choose and prepare a plot under the honeysuckle honeycomb
For landing, a plot is suitable, which is constantly illuminated by the sun. Yes, you have to water more, but numerous bright flowers will delight the eyes. In the shadow of the stems will be strong, but have fewer colors.
Plot designed for landing thoroughly and moisturize. Next, tear off the landing pits or trenches. If you plant in the pits - the honest honerity will grow in the shape of a bush, and the trench will help get vertical landscaping.
A landing jam must have a diameter and a depth of about 60 cm. It is recommended to place drainage to the bottom of the broken brick or rubble. Optimally for each landing site add up to 300 g of lime and 80-100 g of mineral fertilizers.
In the case of proper landing and care, the first shoots from the seed will be sprouting until the end of May. For the first year they can reach up to 1.5-2 meters.
Fertilizer honeysuckle honeycomb
Plant needs additional nutrients. The honeysuckle of the curling honest is best absorbed by nitrogen, potassium and manure. But the latter should be at least 2-3 years ago.
It is possible to prepare peat-absorbable mass based on vegetable waste. It is added to the soil and when planting plants.
Care for honeysuckle honeycomb
The plant loves moisture. Therefore, it is recommended to water up to three times a month, but hot summer and more often. So that the moisture is not evaporated, the earth is covered with foliage or humus. It is also recommended to water the crown. Do not use too cold water, let it warm up during the day in the sun.
By the middle of May we introduce organic fertilizers - humus and compost. And from the beginning of the summer until the end of July, two or three times organic and mineral feeders - NPK solution (30 g per bucket of water) and infusion of cowboy (1:10). The abnormal circles should be loosened, and for the winter to mulk foliage.
The most important thing for Liana is a robust support. The latter is based on the latter, wood, a kapron mesh or cords. Young shoots need to be directed to the support, evenly distributing on its square. Consider that the stalks of the plants are tightened counterclockwise. For the honeysuckle did not continue to grow in height - doincate the top. So the growth of side shoots will accelerate.
Plant up to three years is required to protect against frosts. To do this, we cover the bush and cover the base with dry leaves. Older plants perfectly winter while in a vertical position under the influence of strong winds and low temperatures. But cover root either does not hurt.
In the spring, the honeysuckle begins to let new sprouts and shoots. We look at the branches died - cut them. But do not hurry to cut the plant under the root, if you discovered a few dry shoots.
In fact, to identify the triggers is not so easy. The kidneys on the honeysuckle are not only tied late, but for a long time almost invisible. Therefore, it is not necessary immediately after the disappearance of the snow cover begins to trim the plants. So the secateur can be destroyed healthy twigs. Wait until the kidneys will start to dissolve new shoots.
If dry is not the whole twig, then we cut off only the dead part of it. A small cosmetic haircut is allowed in the summer.
Important features of the plant
Over time, the shoots of the plant are treated and taken off. This spoils the type of plant. Therefore, it needs to be trimmed. And about once every three years it is recommended to trim all shoots. After that, feed the plant. The first year will have to suffer without a bright color, but then it will become much thicker and more beautiful.
Honey honeysuckle reacts poorly to transplants - so think well, where you want to see the plant.
Do not plant a plant closer than 80 cm from the foundation. The honeysuckle has a powerful rod root system that destroys the base of the house.
As evidenced by numerous photos of honeysuckle honeycomb, this is a good option for decorative landscaping low objects. The plant is harmoniously combined with deciduous and coniferous shrubs.
