What is mulching in the gardening in yards 11

Mulching in the garden is an activity that has become quite popular in recent years, although it has existed for decades. It has become an important part of a green space maintenance.

More and more companies for landscaping and landscape design and landscape architects working in this field use it in creating their works.

The main purpose of mulching is to stop the formation of soil crust (it is obtained by watering when watered regularly, which is required by plants, the soil substrate settles, compacts and the top is quite hard bark, which does not allow moisture and air to reach the roots of plants), mulch also limits evaporation from the soil surface, which is favorable for vegetation, and reduces the need for watering (hence the cost of watering). Mulch and specialized substrates can be purchased from an online garden store or from large specialized chains. красиви павета бетонови 20 10 6

Mulching also equalizes the diurnal fluctuations in soil temperature, another very important function is that it prevents the emergence of weeds, minimizing it. Last but not least, mulch enriches the soil with the much-needed nutrients for every plant.

Mulch (pine bark) Mulching itself has an aesthetic function, gives completeness to the compositions, so it is often used in landscaping of private yards and residences (as in the photos taken by chris.corwin and skvidal).

Fish for decorative water areas 10

In addition to beautiful water flowers and ornamental fish, they always bring life to the pond. They are interesting and charming while performing various life activities. Interestingly, scientists from the United States have found that 15 minutes a day contemplation of ornamental fish calms blood circulation and calms the nervous system.

Their role in changing the ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide in the water is often exaggerated, but they are very useful because they reduce the population of mosquitoes and tadpoles by eating most of their larvae.

Another myth is that they affect the clarity of the water, but this is not very true. When choosing fish for your ornamental water area in the garden the most important factor is the size. If money is not a problem for you, you will probably turn to the beautiful Japanese fish „who“, which are quite modern in the construction of garden ponds in the design and landscaping of yards.

But you must know that they require an area of at least 8 square meters and a depth of about 1.20 meters. Do your best and study the requirements of the fish you will use so as not to torture the animals and kill them. готини бетонови павета 20 10 6

How to do propagation of magnolias 9

Magnolia, Magnolia grandifolia, Magnolias are one of the most beautifully flowering exotics used for landscaping a garden in a house, villa, restaurant, cafe or for landscaping public green areas. There are two ways to propagate magnolias – vegetatively and by seed.

One of the ways of vegetative propagation is through the so-called cuttings. These cuttings are taken from the „mother“ plant and placed in suitable conditions for rooting, namely greenhouse conditions.

In these conditions there is a suitable temperature and humidity of both the air and the substrate. Another way of rooting is by leading a low-lying branch, as it bends to the ground and is covered with a light soil mixture (a mixture of garden soil, peat and sand).

The branch is not separated from the tree and is constantly watered. After rooting, it is cut and moved to a new place in the garden for further development.

Another way of vegetative propagation that gives good results is transplanting. Wild types of magnolias produced from seeds are used for this purpose.

Growing roses in the gardens of houses and villas 8

rose, roseRose (plants of the family Rosaceae) love sunny places in the garden, protected from cold winds and well-drained. Roses should not be planted in low places, because there is a lot of cold air.

The soils on which the roses are planted must be very well drained, because they do not like water retention, if these requirements are met, the desired beautiful colors will be obtained (as in the photos taken by Swami Stream and Lincolnian (Brian)) .

For growing roses and landscaping the yards of houses with roses, the most favorable are deeply cultivated, draining, slightly clayey, rich in humus and slightly acidic reaction soils. In places where the soil is heavily clayey, drainage is made and sand, rotten manure, compost and peat are added. Soils that are light and sandy can be improved by applying garden soil, compost and well-rotted manure.

The planting of roses requires prior preparation of the soil, which is done in the fall, and the planting of the roses themselves takes place in the spring. In the southern and warmer regions, roses can be planted in the fall, and it is good to have an eastern exposure, and for cooler places with a southern exposure.

Growing magnolias in gardens and private yards 7

Magnolia Large-flowered (Magnolia grandifolia) One of the most attractive flowers (shrubs, trees) for gardening are magnolias. They are exotic plants with very beautiful blooms. In some species, flowering is in early spring before leafing (as in the photos made by romdos and swimboy1) and is quite spectacular – others are evergreen (meaning that in winter their leaves do not fall or fall partially, as in the photo taken by Renzo Ferrante).

These features make them extremely preferred for landscaping activities by professional gardeners, as well as by lovers of landscaping and landscape design.

Magnolias are light-loving plants, but at the same time they are shade-tolerant (but like all plants they need light). They develop an extremely strong root system, which means that they are not very suitable for growing in pots or pots.

In order to grow well, magnolias must be outdoors (suitable for growing in private villas and houses), they can not grow indoors, this greatly impairs their decorative effect.

Rules and tips for growing tulips 6

Tulip (Tulipa) Tulip is a very undemanding garden crop and although it can adapt to any conditions, it grows best in open sunny, but at the same time protected from winds. Often tulip bulbs are used for garden landscaping of yards, flower figures, flower beds in parks and gardens. Late varieties tolerate shading, which contributes to longer flowering.

Before planting, all varietal bulbs are sorted as those that have signs of sick or injured are set aside. The emergence of healthy plants after planting (such as those in the photos taken by Dennis Wong, prosto photos and muffet) requires disinfection of the bulbs before planting and after sorting.

After all the activities of processing the bulbs, they are planted as usual in the fall in flower beds. Pre-cultivation of the soil in the garden.

Sowing is done by opening furrows, placing the bulbs and covering them with the soil from the next furrow. The depth of sowing depends on the mechanical composition of the soil and the size of the bulbs themselves. Smaller ones are sown shallower to have less resistance to germination and the attempt to appear above the earth’s surface, and larger ones that are better able to fight the soil above them are sown to a greater extent. depth.

The disadvantage of flexible lining is that its walls cannot be as smooth as the walls of the finished container. Although it adjusts to the dug pit, there will be folds in any case, but this is not a big problem.
