Today, the honeysuckle is one of the most popular plants at the gardeners, and from year to year the demand for seedlings of this magnificent shrub is growing.
In our lane, the fruit of the honeysuckle time to overtake the ripening of strawberries, it means that we will be able to enjoy the extraordinary taste of these berries earlier than the rest, and at the same time getting vitamins and minerals, which in large quantities contain fruits.
Properties of honeysuckle and application in landscape design
A characteristic feature of the berries of the honeysuckle is a bit of bitter taste, but, nevertheless, despite this fact, both children and adults are enjoying them.
The honeysuckle has a lot of beneficial properties that were appreciated by doctors. Namely, the plant contributes to the treatment and prevention of the disorder of the gastrointestinal tract, anemia, zinggi, hypertension, the disease of the cardiovascular system, atherosclerosis. In particular, the honeysuckle is shown to people who live in environmentally polluted places and areas of our country.
Many gardeners use a plant to decorate the garden plot. In the landscape design, the honeysuckle fits great, if you put it as a living hedge. A little having worked over the shrub, cutting it off correctly, the garden in the moment will be transformed.
Honeysuck: reproduction seeds
First method
This plant breeds only in two ways:
- seed;
- vegetative.
If you have purchased seeds in a dry summer or at the end of summer, then you should leave them for landing until the autumn season. With the onset of October, you can plant the honeysuckle:
- Take a low and wide tank for landing, its diameter should be about twenty cm, and in height it should be no more than 6 cm.
- Put the vessel with sand, after which they break through it water.
- Put the seeds of our shrub into the container and suck them from above slightly wet sand.
- Cover the vessel with a lid and put in the refrigerator, on the lowest shelf.
After every ten days, get seeds and check if there is no sand, which covers the seeds. If he is still drying, then type clean water into the spray and spray.
Such manipulations need to be held two seasons, before the onset of spring.
With the onset of the season for landing, we do the following:
- We take a large box, his height should be about twenty cm.
- Fill it with a layer of soil, about ten cm high, then moisturize.
- On top of the soil you need to make a mound of sand, together with the stored seeds of our shrub.
- Seeds sprinkle the soil, about one and a half cm.
- Slightly miserably and slightly moistened from the spray gun.
- Cover the drawer with a food film and leave in the garden, under the sun. Because sowing honeysuckle should be under the rays of the sun at least six hours.
When the first germs appear, remove the film and begin to water, carefully, in order not to damage completely still fragile cuttings of the honeysuckle.
With the onset of September you can already be transplant. But be prepared for what it will be necessary according to the rules to equip for them a garden. It is great if it is narrow, and a fence or a bounquer, stuck in the ground, will be addressed.
No need to forget that the honeysuckle needs to be mounted, and both in the garden after transplanting and in the box. It is best for this to use the fallen chew, it will become a good obstacle to the drying of the soil.
Second way
There is another way to plant honeysuckle:
- Buy berries of the honeysuckle, remember them and place it in a small container and completely pour with clean water.
- Prepare immediately for sowing our bush. Grocery. It should also be a narrow, the width should not be more fifty, see to make it a fence. Attention! The fence in this case is strictly necessary, as it will not give the soil to erode, in addition, then the seeds can easily cover the film.
- Prepare the soil, shry it, then align. Make the embankment from the sand, about two or three cm, sprinkle the soil with a thickness again for it again. Pour, not too much, align the bed.
- We take a container with fruits and slightly scold.
- Uniform layer spread the contents of the vessel along the bed.
Our crops fall asleep soil, about two or three cm, cover with greenhouse film.
The first rose sprouts can be observed in about a month. Then the film can be removed, but in this case, you need to be alert and follow the weather conditions. It is impossible to leave sprouts open under strong rains and shoes, they can destroy the plant. Therefore, for your own convenience, it is recommended to build arcs on the garden, and if necessary, you can very quickly cover the bed with a film. At the same time, for air, you can leave the ends open.
If, in the garden, quite hot weather was installed in the garden, which is also not very good for plants, then it should be sketched on the arcs, but a special material, such as a spanboard or Loutrasil. You can do without them, sketching ordinary gauze.
This is necessary for our young shoots to be burned under the influence of the sun.
Seed reproduction has its own minuses:
- From this type of crop breeding, you can wait until five years.
- The individual properties of each variety at this form of reproduction are not preserved, which is unconditional minus.
Honeysuckle: Vegetative reproduction
First method
This method of such reproduction is called - reproduction with the gifts.
- Prepare the soil next to the honeysuckle tree.
- Take a good branch and tilt it to the soil, stuck it in the ground and jump. This branch will give good roots after a while.
- A bush who gave roots to cut off and make a transplant to a pre-prepared place.
It happens that such a way is simply impossible if the tree has too vertical branches and get it up to the desired level.
Second way
It is called - reproduction with cuttings.
- Take a stalk with a bush of the plant in the period before the start of his flowering or, during maturation. It will be the season of spring-summer. It should be borne in mind that the cuttings should have several intersals - from two to five.
- In the prepared land (it should be moistened and exploded) we produce a landing of cuttings so that only one kidney can be seen from above above the soil.
- Next, we are waiting when the stalk gives the roots. It takes about a month about it.
Sale saplings
This is a plant that is very well pollinated, so it is great if there will be several different varieties of honeysk.
Each bush in this case should be planted no further than one and a half meters from each other.
The place where the shrub is planted must comply with the conditions for growing this plant. So, undoubtedly, there must be some kind of protection against a strong wind. You can plant a bush along the fence, it will be aesthetically beautiful, and the fence will be a barrier for wind exposure. But here you should take care of lighting. Since the plant is not accustomed to living in the shade.
It is not necessary to plant a plant on elevations or places with dry soil - it can negatively affect the crop.
Plant disembarking can be engaged in spring or in the autumn season. If we decided to plant in the spring, then it is necessary to do it strictly to the dissolution of the kidneys.
Before planting, make sure that all weeds near the landing site are removed, especially this concerns perennial weeds.
In general, the honeysuckle is not a picky plant to the soil. It can exist in sandy, and in forest, and in clay soils.
In any case, before disembarking it is recommended to feather the soil by organic. Make chalk, dolomite flour, or lime.
Right before landing, it is desirable to add compost to the soil.
If you have a plating with an open type of root system, then make sure there are no dry and damaged roots, otherwise they need to be removed.
When landing, the root neck should be broken into the kidney into two or five cm. After that, the land is tamped and make small sides around the wells in which it was landed. Pour the plant. And after the water is absorbed, promulate.
Care for honeysuckle
After you landing, the plant will not require you special attention. In this case, you only need to pay attention to some little things. For example, if the summer was rapidly hot, do not forget to do it in time. The soil looser should be made after each watering, but slightly, superficially, otherwise you can damage the roots of a young tree.
If you mulch the soil, then in this case the looping is not necessary.
The formation of honeysuckle bushes should be engaged when the tree is already an adult and yield and curly.
The first trimming will be with you when we translate the honeysuckle on its "legal place". It is done easily - just carefully cutting all the bright shoots, leaving only large and healthy.
After the first sample, about five years you only need to get rid of dry branches.
Starting from the seven age, the plant gives a smaller harvest, in this case the breaking of the crown will help, it is done every three years. Just cut the old branches, which are more than five years old.
If you think that trimming off the tree, then deeply mistaken. The honeysuckle transfers similar procedures very well.
Harvesting
Everything is good in the honeysuckle, but there is one insignificant minus - the berries ripen not at once, but unevenly. Therefore, the harvest will be harvested several times per season.
Perevani fruits collapsed themselves. Therefore, you can spread around the tree on the ground the film so that it was more convenient to collect.
