Methods and terms of reproduction of chrysanthemums

Chrysanthemums are annuals - they are grown annually from seeds, and perennial - they can be propagated by seed, cuttings, queen trees, or dividing a bush. Chrysanthemums are planted in spring and autumn, each season has its advantages:

  1. Seeds  sown in open ground in May, and when the shoots grow up to 10 cm, they pinch. In the fall, chrysanthemums are already blooming.
  2. Cuttings  - A very popular way of breeding chrysanthemums. You can grow a bush, cutting off the stalk, even from a bouquet. How to root a chrysanthemum shoot? Escape length of about 6 cm rooted in the soil, consisting of sand and peat. The box covered with glass is kept in a cool place, not higher than + 15 ° С. When the roots appear, the plants are planted in separate pots and then, with the end of frosts, in open ground. If you purchased the stalk of the desired variety in the fall, do not plant it in the ground, but root in a container and leave it in a cool place until spring.
  3. Mother liquor  - This is a wintered rhizome of chrysanthemum, from which the shoots will go, it can be purchased and planted in early spring
  4. Dividing bush  - the only way of autumn planting of chrysanthemums, in which the plant is carefully dug, shears divide the roots of the mother bush with shoots into several specimens and plant. This procedure is supposed to be held every two years to rejuvenate the plant.

Chrysanthemums, planting in spring and autumn

Please note, if you decide to grow chrysanthemums, planting and care in the open field differ in spring and autumn - during spring planting, the queen trees and cuttings take root better, but in the fall you can choose a flowering shrub and not be mistaken with its appearance.

  Chrysanthemums

For very cold winters, choose Korean small-flowered hybrids of chrysanthemums, which are called the oak tree - this species combines many varieties zoned in the middle lane and the Moscow region. Large-flowered Indian chrysanthemums are tall - they grow up to a meter, and sometimes up to one and a half, but they are afraid of cold weather and freeze easily.

For chrysanthemums, choose a sunny, preferably elevated place. Flowers do not like stagnant moisture, so they drain the overmoistened soil, adding a layer of coarse river sand to the planting hole. The soil is preferred to be slightly acidic or neutral, light and loose. Too dense - mixed with peat, humus or rotten compost.

Chrysanthemum plants are placed every 30-50 cm. The pit is dug out shallow so that shoots on the queen or two-thirds of the cutting are not covered with earth, when dividing the shrub it is about 40 cm. No more than 0.5 kg of humus or compost is added to the well. If you overdo it with fertilizers, the flowers will be small, and lush foliage only. It is recommended to irrigate the roots with a stimulant (, Kornevin, Heteroauxin), and then cover it with soil and compact it. Cuttings after spring planting should preferably be covered from the sun with a spanbond for a couple of weeks.

When planting in the autumn, the chrysanthemum bush must be watered abundantly, this will compact the soil, eliminating the voids in it, due to which the roots may freeze. In addition, the flowers are cut and leave a third of the stems, so that nutrients go to the development of the root system.

Chrysanthemums, care - watering, feeding, trimming, shelter

Chrysanthemum does not tolerate moisture stagnation, but watering loves - without water, the stems become hard, the flowers become shallow. At the same time, the flower does not tolerate sprinkling, it is necessary to water it at the root, preferably with rain or settled water. Land after watering loosened to avoid crusts.


In the spring for chrysanthemums need nitrogen fertilizer for rapid growth, you can spend it in 2-3 weeks after planting. In the second half of summer, with the beginning of chrysanthemum budding, phosphorus-potassium fertilizers are applied to ensure lush flowering and strengthen the plants before hibernation. In the autumn you can feed the flowers a little organic. Tall species tie up, as their fragile stems can break.

The beginning of frosts is a signal that it is time to leave for the winter. The trunks of chrysanthemums in the late fall cut, leaving 10-centimeter hemp and insulate with sawdust or foliage. The most tender varieties on top are wrapped with a covering material and, to protect from moisture, they put something flat on top - for example, a plywood shield. Some growers dig up the roots and store them in the winter in a dark, cold cellar to preserve the variety for sure.

How to create spherical chrysanthemum bushes

For flowers such as chrysanthemums, planting and care in the open field - not all that is needed and simple processing will allow you to create real masterpieces from them.

After winter, chrysanthemums are pruned and pinched to get a beautiful spherical shrub. There is a variety in which the bush itself grows as a ball, without needing to form, this is a multiflora chrysanthemum, a low-growing bush up to 20 cm in height — when two pairs of leaves appear on the shoot, it is pinched, and then the ball forms itself.


Multiflora can be grown not only in a flowerbed, but also in a pot. But, at the end of flowering, the above-ground part of the plant is cut and sent to rest - in a dark cool place, for the whole winter. Periodically sleeping chrysanthemums are watered so that the roots are not dry. In February, the first shoots appear, which means that the plant has woken up, and it is time to get it out of the basement. If the spherical chrysanthemum grows in a flower bed, the stems should be cut to 10 cm and cover with sawdust and nonwoven material for the winter.

The multiflora loves the soil rich with fertilizers, when landing add more humus and wood ashes to the hole. If you grow it in a pot, you can prepare the soil from 30% of humus and 20% of sand, the remaining 50% is sod land.



It is possible to form a ball from other types of chrysanthemums; in small and medium-flowered main shoots pinch on reaching 10-12 cm, then cut side shoots grown to the same length, they then actively branch, pinching is done before buds appear.

In large-flowered species of chrysanthemums, 15 cm long stems are cut, only one or two pickles are carried out no later than June, besides, they are stepson — from mid-July shoots that appear from the leaf axes are removed daily, and from August every three days, then get a spherical bush with large flowers with a diameter of up to 10 cm.

Oak trees - perhaps one of the most beloved and common flowers that are grown in flower beds and garden plots. They simply fascinate with their colorful flowers and variety. Oak trees are often called Chinese chrysanthemums, since China is the birthplace of this plant. After some time, oak flowers began to grow in Japan, and after - all over Europe.

Growing conditions

This plant is a symbol of longevity. Regardless of the variety, all kinds of oak trees have very delicate and bright flowers. This perennial shrub is considered to be frost-resistant, however, it is better to shelter it for the winter. The Chinese have been practicing this for many years.

Growing and planting oak trees is a simple matter, as these flowers are unpretentious. There are several reasons why gardeners choose them to decorate their garden.

That's all the care of oak trees, which will not be difficult even for novice gardeners.

How to self-propagate oaks?

Reproduction of oak trees occurs with the help of seeds. To grow successfully, you need to know some rules in this process. Planting seeds should be carried out a year after they are collected, since it is these seeds that have almost 100% germination. Planting material, sown a month after harvest, may almost not ascend. Germination of such seeds is not more than 10%. Planted seeds should be watered periodically and in the midday hours to shade from the sun. This is the main care for seedlings.

Later, when they grow up, they should be cared for in the same way as adult plants.

In addition, the cultivation of oaks is carried out using cuttings. The grafting process is carried out in the spring. Young, well-matured shoots, cut about 15 cm long, then dipped into the growth stimulator Kornevin and planted in the ground. Further care of the shoots is regular and moderate watering of the soil.

Adult specimens that require transplantation can also be divided and multiplied. This is a fairly successful cultivation of oak trees by the method of dividing the bush. The bush is divided into two parts and planted separately. Such a rejuvenating procedure allows you to get two lush and brightly flowering plants from one.

Diseases and pests

Like many other garden flowers, oak trees can be affected by pests and diseases. The most frequent enemy of this plant is aphid. Feeding on the juice of the stems and leaves of oak trees, the insect thereby slows down their growth and development. In addition, aphid infects flower buds. Mites, snails, thrips, leafworm and caterpillars - they all love to feast on the lush foliage of oak trees. Also, flowers can be affected by gray rot, ring spots, rust and verticilous wilt.

Since most varieties of oak trees do not tolerate wintering and may die, they are recommended to be sheltered for the winter. Chamomile oak trees are considered an exception. They are not afraid of frost. But the hybrid species is better to transplant into the greenhouse as soon as the cold comes. If the oak trees provide competent care, they will delight with their beauty over the years.

Oak trees are wonderful flowers for any garden. If you give them proper care, then during the flowering period, the oaks will simply bewitch with their beauty. They are also called Chinese chrysanthemums, and rightly so, because it was from there that this wonderful flower, together with Buddhism, migrated to Japan, and only then to us. The Japanese call this flower kotengiku (kotenzhiku), which means "ancient chrysanthemums." The wonderful garden flowers of the oak tree symbolize longevity, but the flower itself is rather tender. Although they rather well tolerate the winter climate of our latitudes, it is better to replace them in the greenhouses for the winter. The Chinese have been practicing this for centuries.

Oak flowers - growing

Garden oaks are unpretentious flowers for planting and growing at the dacha. Gardeners will love them for a variety of reasons.

Regardless of the variety of oak trees, these flowers are completely unpretentious to the composition of the land where they are planted. This flower likes when the soil has good drainage and good lighting at the place where they are planted. The fertilizers that are most suitable for these colors are among the cheapest. This may be litter, mullein infusion, biohumus.

With the timely introduction of nitrogen as bait during the formation of inflorescences, the stems and leaves are much stronger and much larger than in the case when the bait is not used.

The only period when oak trees require the attention of a gardener is a period of growth of a bush. At this time it is necessary to tear off the lower leaves. By this procedure, you will also protect the flower from diseases, because it is through the lower leaves that the flower most often becomes infected with diseases. After flowering, the flower is cut, leaving only small hemp no more than 15 centimeters high.

Breeding oak trees

In order to know how to plant flowers of oak seedlings for the next year, it is important to follow some rules. If you plant fresh seeds that were collected just a month ago, their germination will disappoint you. This figure, unfortunately, will not exceed 10%. Seeds that were harvested a year and a half ago, will not grow well (95%). The thing is that only by this time all chemical processes are completed inside the seeds. In addition, oak trees are planted with cuttings. The best time to graft and plant new plants is spring. At this time, young shoots are cut with a length of no more than 15 centimeters, and after treatment with the drug "Kornevin", planted. If your oak trees need a transplant, then there is another great way to reproduce them - dividing the bush. In this case, the bush is divided by half, and its part is deposited. In this procedure - an exceptional benefit, because as a result you get rejuvenated bushes, the flowering of which will be more turbulent and bright.

Diseases and pests

The greatest harm to oak trees does aphid. It feeds on the juice of this plant, thereby slowing its growth. In addition, aphid spoils and buds. This flower is not averse to eat   , mites, caterpillars, thrips and snails. Most often, oaks are susceptible to rust, gray rot, ring spots, vertical wilt.

  Wintering

Unfortunately, not all varieties of oak trees survive wintering on the open ground. Most of them die in severe frosts, so we recommend that they be transplanted into a greenhouse for the winter period. Chamomile oaks are most resistant to cold. Hybrid varieties are especially demanding for heat, it is desirable to transplant them into the greenhouse with the first cold. With proper care, this wonderful flower will delight its owners for many years.

Not everyone knows that such a plant as Oak is a good flower for planting in the garden. It should be remembered that there are certain rules of care and cultivation, following which, you can make your garden more beautiful.

Breeding

When harvesting seeds, it is recommended to follow certain rules. First of all, it is necessary to plant those from seeds that have lain 1 - 1.5 years, and fresh ones will not normally germinate.
