To bring to life the ideas of a beautiful landscape will help a variety of types of ornamental shrubs

Various types of ornamental shrubs will help to realize the ideas of a beautiful landscape. It is necessary to approach the choice of shrubs with full responsibility and understanding of the matter.

All experienced gardeners know (let beginners remember) that, first of all, the choice of a plant depends on whether the seedling can develop normally in the climate in this area and whether the soil is suitable for its growth.

When planting decorative shrubs, it is worth considering that they come in different heights. This means that the landing can be thought out in such a way that all tiers are harmoniously filled and, as a result, a complete composition is created.

Ornamental plants are planted not only for visual enjoyment. By planting them, for example, along a trellised fence, you can get a hedge that will protect from unwanted looks.

You can also arrange different types of flowering shrubs in certain areas and thereby divide the site into the desired zones. Such a planting separating the beds with vegetables from the recreation area or the orchard will look quite impressive.

About how beautiful the different types of flowering shrubs in the garden look like, watch a video:

The diverse and bright flowering of shrubs will apparently revitalize the garden palette

As already mentioned above: for each climate zone, it is advisable to plant those plants to which it is most suitable. For example, for a belt with a temperate climate hawthorn is suitable.

With a certain not difficult care (pruning of branches and thereby determining the direction of growth), you can grow a plant not only surprising in its beauty, but also yielding healthy fruits.

Hydrangea will feel good in such conditions. It’s better to plant it in the shade. She loves moisture and soil fertilized with humus. Hydrangea flowers made a huge impression on many poets.

Its inflorescences in shape resemble balls of different colors. The presence of such a shrub in the garden apparently transforms it.

In areas in which most days of the year are cold, gardeners should pay attention to this type of shrubbery as barberry.

He is hardy and very attractive in appearance, in addition to everything, he also bears fruit.

The birds like to eat its fruits, the presence of which on the site has a positive effect on the fight against insects that damage the normal growth of plants. Planting different types of evergreen shrubs, in addition, you can give the garden attractiveness even in autumn and winter, at the end of leaf fall.

Planting Ornamental Shrubs in Autumn

Most gardeners are of the opinion that planting should be carried out only in the spring. But, this opinion is erroneous. Landing in the fall can and should be done. In order for the plant to winter well after the autumn planting, it must be planted in one of the ways.

The first method, involving planting seedlings with bare roots. This method can be applied only after the plant has completed active vegetation. In cases of non-compliance with this recommendation, the risk of the plant not being able to survive the winter increases significantly. Mulching, and breathing covers, and any other shelters will be useless.

The end of the growing season can be determined by the following signs: the buds at the top of the branches are fully formed, the young shoots are completely covered with bark. Experienced gardeners do not recommend planting hawthorn and hazel in the fall. Here everything is connected with the core and low-branched root system.

Planting berry bushes in autumn is recommended in almost all cases. Shrubs of these species easily tolerate an autumn transplant after falling leaves.

In the spring, berry shrubs start preparing for fruiting early enough and do not have the strength to quickly grow new roots. Planting in the spring is likely to result in either a marginal crop or its complete absence.

Planting seedlings with bare roots brought from areas with other climatic conditions, especially those where the climate was much warmer and milder, is accompanied by a great risk. Quite often, such seedlings do not survive the winter due to the severity of their unusual climate.

Shrub planting dates in autumn

This rule must be observed in relation to the autumn planting of all plants. Planting should be completed before the end of October. The time limit is due to the fact that a transplanted plant requires a certain amount of time in order to take root in a new place before the first thorough frosts.

In order for the plant to overwinter painlessly for itself, it needs to acquire new roots in the fall, instead of those that were destroyed during the transplant. Only in this case, the root system will be able to fully work and counteract variable and adverse weather processes.

Each seedling bought, just before planting in the ground, it is advisable to place for some time in a container of water. The root system must be saturated with moisture, because the plant could be quite long outside the ground and without water.

If the roots of a bought seedling of a berry or ornamental shrub are covered with a so-called clay mash, then this composition, without fail, must be washed off.

About how to choose and plant the berry bushes in the fall - we look at the video:

Method two, planting plants with an earthen lump

Shrub saplings transplanted together with a lump of land on the root system, quite easily survive this procedure, and no matter what time of year it happens. When buying materials of this type for planting in the fall, you always need to pay attention to the condition of the soil lump.

It is not recommended to plant seedlings in autumn with poorly packed roots from which the earth is showered. If the roots are wrapped in burlap or mesh of a special breathable material - you can buy a plant.

When removing burlap before boarding, you must be as careful as possible. It’s better not to touch the grid at all. In the process of growth, it will not interfere with the development of the root system and after a certain amount of time, it will decay.

The third way, how to plant seedlings from seedlings from containers

You can plant them at any time. It is worth noting immediately that this method exists and is practiced, but it is very unprofitable when planting in autumn. The thing is that the roots, for quite a long time, remain in the oppressed space.

In a not very large capacity, the roots develop, but eventually twist or grow in the opposite natural direction. When falling into the open ground, for a long time they cannot begin to function normally, which, in turn, is reflected in the work of other organs of the plant.

Such seedlings, quite often do not survive the winter temperature drops, are very susceptible to the influence of cold and excessive moisture.

How to fertilize shrubs during autumn planting

Planting shrubs in the fall requires the mandatory introduction of fertilizer into the soil. But, this issue should be approached responsibly and only after carefully studying the appropriate literature, which will give accurate information regarding the dosage.

This is especially important when making mineral additives. In autumn, it is better to abandon the application of fertilizers nitrogen, potassium and calcium. Their action can have a very detrimental effect on the root system and, as a result, on the state of the whole plant as a whole. Phosphorus-rich fertilizers can be added to the well for planting.

Also, do not add during the autumn planting not overripe, fresh mullein, manure, slurry. Experienced gardeners recommend using only drugs that accelerate the growth and development of the root system: humate, root. The exact recommendations for the strict dosage of the drugs can be found in the instructions attached to them.

How and how to mulch trunks circles

Seedlings planted in the autumn period require the use of additional protection against negative or critical weather conditions. Such protection consists in organizing mulching of the territory adjacent to the trunk.

Organic substances should be used as mulch: ripe sawdust, peat, chaff. But do not use hay or straw. This is material in which rodents do not disdain to arrange a winter for themselves, which, most likely, will be feasted on the roots of the seedling, which will lead to its death.

Also, do not cover the ground around the seedling with ruberoid or polyethylene. They will prevent the penetration of air to the roots and lead to their debate, which also adversely affects the condition of the plant.

With the advent of spring, after the snow has melted, the mulch is removed and the soil begins to actively warm up under sunlight.
