How and where in the garden to plant bulbs

The planting depth of the bulb can be calculated using the "rule of three": from the stems to the soil surface should be a distance equal to the height of the bulb, multiplied by 3. On heavy soils the depth of planting is better to reduce 20%.

During vegetation and flowering bulbs need sun, but when they are at rest, the lighting is not so important. Blooming in early spring melkolukovichnye can be planted among deciduous trees, which bloom around the time when the leaves of these flower dies.

Bulbous plants can not tolerate stagnant water, but usually demanding the presence of food and moisture during the growing season. The best choice for them — nutrient and water-holding capacity but well drained loamy soil. On sandy soil require more watering and intensive fertilizing.

Plants, bulbs which you need to dig in the summer (tulips, hyacinths, grouse), can be planted on beds with fast-growing annuals and biennials: the nasturtiums, fragrant tobacco, violas, forget-me-nots, daisies. They will zadekorirovat empty spaces in the flower garden.

If, during the landings in the later stages of the bulbs (corms) were covered with spruce branches (film, non-woven fabric, foliage, etc.) or a big layer of compost in the spring, before flowering, a layer of mulch need to shovel, and sealing material removed.

The main flow of planting material comes to us from the countries with longer growing season, where bulbs are dug in October-November. Therefore, the new harvest we get in the spring of refrigeration storage. In autumn the shelves are, as a rule, bulbs of a one-year storage, ready to start growth, and sometimes even bulbs with shoots. These lilies is better not to buy.

They will gradually take a vertical position and the plant will bloom in the same year, although it may be weaker. With spring planting bulbs spend time on growing the root system to the detriment of growth and flowering, and sometimes just rot the following winter.

The bulbs of daffodils planted after dry storage (without roots), it is better to mulch fallen leaves (layer thickness not less than 10 cm), then this operation is not required, since daffodils in one place can grow for 5-7 years. The only exceptions are represenational daffodils that are mulched annually.

However, plant hyacinths can be until the first half of November. But then the place should be warmed beforehand leaves or other material from those that are at hand, and to protect the film from rain and snow. And after landing again put insulation.

Plot of land for planting hyacinths experts advise to prepare in August, two months before planting, otherwise the natural soil settlement can cause breakage of the roots, which begin to develop in the fall. When planting in the hole, it is desirable to add well-rotted compost or peat, if it is not added in the pre-digging the soil.

With the onset of cold resistant planting hyacinths better shelter. You can use dry peat, humus, sawdust, dry leaves and twigs. In the spring, as soon as the soil begins to thaw, the cover must be carefully removed, as the shoots of hyacinths appear very early.

After the spring home forcing hyacinth bulbs can also be planted in the garden. But not in the spring and fall. After the leaves wither, the bulbs should be carefully removed from the pot, dried at room temperature, cleaned of old roots and the covering of scales.
