Description of the plant
The root system of a tulip is presented in the form of a bulb, shaped like an egg or a pear. Every year the bulbs are renewed - the old generation is replaced by another, new one. During the vegetative period, the plant forms young onions, while those that have faded this year die off. Future peduncles, like the flower itself, are formed gradually throughout the summer. By autumn, young onions finish forming a peduncle and take root in order to give life to new young tulips in the spring. In nature, this cycle repeats from year to year.
The height of the stem of a varietal tulip can reach up to 30 centimeters, but this is not the limit - some varieties also have half-meter flower stalks. The leaves of the tulip are wide, dense, as if enveloping the stem with a veil. In shape, the leaf resembles an oval with an elongation, the tip of the leaf is sharp. A tulip can have up to five leaves on its stem, but there are varieties with two.
As a rule, the tulip blooms as a single flower consisting of six petals, although there are varieties with several flowers growing from a single bulb. Inside the flower there are stamens (there are also six of them) and a pistil with three faces. In structure, the flowers can resemble the shape of a glass, a lily, a bowl, an egg. You can often find a variety in which the petals are double and multiple. The color of tulips is varied, but the most common are pink tulips, white-pink, white, red, yellow, purple, orange. This herbaceous perennial bloom begins in April and ends in June.
Varieties
A huge number of varieties of double tulips are usually classified into early and late varieties. The former impress with their early flowering, but they are not tall and have rather small flowers. The color palette is diverse: there are red, white, yellow, and multi-colored specimens.
Late double tulips bloom a couple of weeks later, but they are much larger than their counterparts. They are often used for forcing and cutting, getting excellent bouquets and delighting their loved ones. Consider the main varieties and names of different types of terry tulips.
Early
Low-growing, but in their own way beautiful early varieties of double tulips cannot be ignored. They are gentle and beautiful with their virgin beauty. Among them, a fairly large number of popular types can be distinguished.
Abba. Dutch cultivar with scarlet, multi-petaled flowers up to 10 cm in diameter. The outer petals are covered with green stripes. Blooms in April.
Late
Late tulips begin to bloom a couple of weeks after the early ones. They are distinguished by a long flowering period, in some plants it lasts until June. They are used both in cutting and in flower beds. Late tulips are characterized by high growth and large flowers: up to 10 cm. There are many popular varieties.
La Belle Epoque.An exquisite plant of a pale pink powdery shade, which grows up to 55 cm in height. The flowers are very large and do not fade for a long time.
Landing
It is carried out at a temperature from +6 to + 10 ° С, since it is this temperature range that allows the bulbs to take root. The optimal time for planting is autumn (September-October, depending on the climatic zone). Early double tulips are planted 2 weeks earlier than later ones. Every year, it is advisable to select a new place for growing double tulips in the garden. If this is not possible, then the transplant should be carried out at least once every 3 years, and for the winter the bulbs should be insulated with spruce paws.
Planting depth is the height of the bulb, multiplied by 3, and the distance between the specimens is at least 10 cm.A handful of river sand should be placed on the bottom of the dug holes, and then put the bulb, which cannot be pressed into the ground with effort. For winter, put a layer of mulch on top.
The soil
When planting, it is not recommended to use manure, which has a rather rough effect on delicate plants. It is better to apply compost and suitable fertilizers that dissolve quickly in water and do not have chlorine in the composition. Clay soil is a real enemy for tulips. If there are clay soils on the site, then they must be improved with the help of:
- humus;
- ash;
- peat;
- sand.
And also acidic soils are not suitable for plants.
Care
The bulbs must be dug up every year so that they do not rot and shrink. To store them, it is best to prepare a container with wet sand and a dry, cool, dark place. The garden bed where tulips grow must be periodically loosened and weeded. The soil near the flowers should always be moist to saturate the fleshy stems and leaves with moisture. Sprouted plants need to be fertilized with nitrogen, then it is the turn of phosphorus-potassium dressings, and then mineral ones.
For safety reasons, you can treat terry tulips with fungicides from time to time. When pruning plants, leave a few leaves to form a quality bulb. Withering petals should be torn off so as not to weaken the bulb.
Optimal conditions
Terry tulips cannot stand moisture stagnation. Therefore, the best place for their growth will be a hill. They are demanding on lighting: an open area with maximum insolation is optimal. However, they do not like the wind, as the stems are tender and break easily under the weight of the flower.
The cultivation of tulips is described in the following video.

The large oval fruits of this grape are usually harvested in loose clusters weighing up to 1-2 kg. One berry can weigh up to 30 g. The shell of the fruit is thin and not felt when bitten. There is a tendency to peas.
Advantages of the variety:
- bisexual flowers;
- excellent rooting of cuttings;

Purple orchids: general care
Lilac orchids are demanding to care for. Each individual species must be looked after according to individual rules. But some points of care are identical for all specimens. This is the temperature regime and the provision of the required amount of light, watering and fertilization, the choice of a suitable pot and substrate.
Substrate and pot
Planting phalaenopsis violet should be carried out in a pot that is large and characterized by resistance. This is necessary for the normal development of the root system, which is developing rapidly.
The best option would be to choose a transparent container that is equipped with side drainage holes.
For growing orchids, it is better to use a special substrate that you bought in a store. This mixture should be designed specifically for this type of plant. You can independently make such a substrate from the following components:
- sphagnum moss;
- charcoal;
- pieces of pine bark;
- expanded clay.
It will not be superfluous to add fern roots to the substrate, as well as peat. Such additions limit the application of dressings.
Transfer
Orchid transplant should be done only as a last resort. If there is no need for that, then phalaenopsis should be transplanted once every 3 years. It is necessary to carry out this procedure at the beginning of spring, before the active phase of flower growth and root growth begins. When the plant grows in size, it should be transplanted into a larger pot by transshipment.
The transplant procedure consists of the following stages:
- the flower must be carefully removed from the pot, while holding its root system;
- the plant is placed in a new pot, where a previously prepared substrate is located;
- it is required to carefully straighten the roots, but do not compact the soil;
- you need to insert a stick into the pot, to which the stem is fixed using a wire.
Lighting
Phalaenopsis with purple leaves prefers diffused sunlight. But it is worth avoiding direct exposure to the rays of the sun in order to prevent burns on flowers and foliage. In partial shade, the orchid also blooms and develops well. It requires 12 hours of lighting throughout the day, so artificial lighting can be used in the fall-winter season.
Temperature regime
Phalaenopsis is a tropical plant, therefore it loves warmth. The optimum temperature for him is +25 degrees during the day and +15 at night. In extreme heat, the flower slows down in growth and blooms poorly. The most suitable place for the Purple Orchid is windows facing east or west
It is important to ensure constant ventilation of the room with the plant, while drafts should be avoided
Watering and humidity
Tropical exotic plants need high air humidity, which should be at least 40%. But it is worth remembering that excessive watering and spraying can contribute to flower decay. Watering is necessary with Phalaenopsis in case of complete drying of the substrate. The average frequency of watering is 1-2 times a week. Water for irrigation should be soft, well-settled, boiled. Rain or melt water can be used. Dried stalks should be cut off.
Top dressing
Caring for the Purple Orchid includes feeding. They are brought in every 30 days. For feeding, it is better to use complex fertilizers intended for orchids. The time to apply nutrients is in the spring and summer. Inserting doses should be as specified in the instructions. There is no need to feed Phalaenopsis if it has been transplanted 2-3 times throughout the year.
