How to sow winter flowers and why autumn sowing is much more effective than spring sowing, this is what the Site editorial office will tell its diligent gardeners about today!

Some people have to hone the skill of growing a flower garden for years, learning from their own mistakes. Our readers, in the twinkling of an eye, turn into virtuoso florists after the first read of an article about gardening.



Can't believe it? Well, we invite you to see everything for yourself!

Winter flowers Annual flowers tolerate the cold best. Moreover, some of them grow even stronger and stronger than those whose seeds were planted only in the spring. Having survived the winter sowing, one-year-olds grow in dense shrubs and practically do not get sick during flowering.



Timely sowing of seeds is the key to the rapid emergence of sprouts. The most successful period for this procedure is the end of October. At this time, the weather changes will no longer be as sharp as at the beginning of autumn, and therefore it will be easier for the flowers to adapt and get used to the cold weather.



It doesn't matter where you decide to plant flowers - outdoors or in a greenhouse. The procedure for preparing the soil and planting seeds is the same in both cases.

First, the site should be weeded, dug up and loosened. Then it is imperative to level the ground and clearly outline the drawing of the future flower bed. It will also not be superfluous to fertilize the soil a month before planting the seeds. If necessary, the site should be fenced off along the perimeter with unnecessary slate or wooden planks.

In addition to the flower bed, it is necessary to prepare a substrate for flowers in order to protect the seeds from frost.



It is important to remember that not all annual flowers are suitable for autumn sowing. You can sow only those varieties that will probably be able to withstand the cold and will not disappear with excessive soil moisture. These include, for example, asters, kosmeya, cornflowers and phlox.



However, some perennials can also be sown for the winter. For example, lavender, arabis and bells are perfect for this.



By planting flower seeds in the fall, you can not only grow healthier and stronger plants, but also free up spring time for other planting activities. Isn't that wonderful?

We are looking forward to comments on what flowers you want to decorate your flower bed with, and we say goodbye until we meet again. Have a nice day!
