Planting and leaving

Clematis "Violet Elizabeth" is a fairly hardy and winter-hardy variety. It grows and blooms normally in the Moscow region, although it requires careful covering.

Well-lit areas with light, fertile soil are best suited for planting.

It can be planted both in spring and autumn, and carefully transshipped also in summer, but in summer it is easy to break the shoots. The variety is responsive to feeding ()

The “Violet Elizabeth” pruning group is the second: clematis is pruned at a height of about 60 ... 80 cm above a pair of strong buds. Wintering shoots must be carefully covered, but so that they were dry. In the spring, they must be removed as soon as the threat of severe night frosts has passed, and carefully tied to the supports. Pruning in the third group is possible, but in this case clematis will bloom only once at the end of summer and rather weakly.

Diseases of clematis Zhakman

Plants of Zhakman's clematis are occasionally affected by some pathogenic fungi - powdery mildew, rust, ascochitosis, septoria. Control measures are the same as those recommended for diseases of other floral and ornamental crops. Good results are obtained by spraying plants in early spring and autumn before covering with a solution of the fungicide foundationazole (at the rate of 20 g of the drug per 10 l of water).

A fungal disease called "wilt", "black death" or "wilting" is especially dangerous for clematis Zhakman. This causative agent of the disease is insidious in that it penetrates the plant quickly without noticeable symptoms of the disease. In a diseased plant, apical shoots or whole vines suddenly wither. Unfortunately, the control measures are still unknown.Withered shoots are urgently removed. The stems of the bush are dug out of the ground up to 3 cm, the entire aerial part is cut off and burned. Healthy shoots grow from the lower dormant buds of the plant.

Clematis Jacquemana is one of the most popular of the beautifully flowering vines. In terms of beauty and variety of flowers, abundance and duration of flowering, its numerous varieties are second only to roses.

General characteristics

One of the most spectacular species is Zhakman's clematis. In the description of this group of clematis, it should be mentioned that its name comes from the name of the nursery in England (Jackman's nursery), where the first clematis of Zhakman was bred in the middle of the 19th century. It was obtained by hybridizing clematis woolly, purple and Henderson. This type of clematis includes plants growing up to 6 meters in height. The flowers are odorless, painted in a variety of colors from white to dark purple and are striking in their size: their diameter can reach 20 centimeters.

The group of Zhakman's clematis includes plants, the cultivation of which is subject to even beginner flower growers. These clematis can grow on soils of any composition, in sunny and shady areas, they tolerate both hot summers and frosty winters well.

Landing features

You can grow princes in various regions of the country. But in any case, you must follow some rules. For example, the area where they will be planted must be in partial shade.

For people in the south, it is best to grow these plants from the north side. In addition, it is best if they are protected by either buildings or trees. In the case of landing princes under the sun, not only flowers, but also leaves will become smaller.

The hole must be dug in advance, 10-14 days before planting. At its bottom, it is necessary to lay out broken slate, which will serve as a drainage layer. In addition, fertilizers can be added. So, one bush will require up to 5 kilograms of either humus or compost. And you can also use wood ash, it will be enough 0.5 liters, or buy superphosphate in the store.

After that, the prince's seedling must be cut off by making an incision slightly above 2 buds. Then it can be installed in the middle of the pit. The root collar should be at least 10 centimeters from the top. After that, it is imperative to water the prince.

Do you know that:

Both humus and compost are rightfully the basis of organic farming. Their presence in the soil significantly increases the yield and improves the taste of vegetables and fruits. They are very similar in properties and appearance, but they should not be confused. Humus - rotted manure or bird droppings. Compost - rotted organic residues of various origins (spoiled food from the kitchen, tops, weeds, thin twigs). Humus is considered a better fertilizer, compost is more readily available.
