Care features

Immediately after planting, lilies do not need special care. However, it should be borne in mind that every year the plant will require more and more attention. So, in the spring, immediately after the sprouts sprout, it is necessary to apply top dressing to the soil, namely, organic nitrogen-containing fertilizers (for example, compost or humus).

However, if the air temperature is in the range from 0 to -3 degrees, then the plant should be given the opportunity to harden. In summer (namely, in July) tubular lilies are recommended to be mulched with straw or hay. Such procedures have a beneficial effect on plant development, suppress weed growth and help retain water in the soil.

It is recommended to water it regularly - 2-3 times a week (in hot and dry climates, as well as in summer). After the flowering period is over, the fruit pods must be removed. It should also be borne in mind that during periods of intense rains (which is especially typical for autumn), the lily is pruned and fed with ash.

Honeysuckle

Ornamental types of honeysuckle - fast-growing climbing bushes with abundant flowering are an indispensable attribute in landscaping gardens, plots, parks. There is also honeysuckle with edible fruits.

Plants are highly resistant to even severe frosts. Prefers lighted or semi-shaded areas. Forest honeysuckle species tolerate garden shade well from surrounding trees. Such conditions contribute to the preservation of moisture, which is so necessary for honeysuckle.

Curly varieties are well suited for the design of arches, arbors. Blooming lianas are even allowed on the ground among large stones.

The use of perovskia in ornamental gardening

• Only in groups of 3-5 specimens, never placing plants alone, even on flower beds;
• to create low hedges;
• in curbs;
• as a delimiter between zones in the garden or a "dotted", dotted border;
• for placing geometric accents, placing large sods with "dots" or "chess";
• in the design of flat rockeries and the foot of an alpine slide;
• on flower beds with decorative soil cover (especially stone mulch);
• as accents attractive in winter;
• for textural contrasts and the creation of vertical dense points of attraction of the gaze;
• in the design of modern gardens with a focus on metallic effect, watery allusions and unusual textures;
• as a vertical structuring accent in double-sided mixborders and bed frames.

The best partners for Perovskia are: roses, ornamental cereals, echinacea, liatris, boltonia, mallow.

How to take care of it properly?

After planting, the larch must be watered with a special stimulant for 7 days for proper root formation. This step of leaving should not be skipped.

During the first year after planting (from February to April), cover the larch with a special netting to protect it from the shade (the canvas will not work). In the first year, the plant will not be able to receive much nutrition due to the truncated root system, because of which the needles can get overdried under the influence of the spring sun. In conifers, evaporation from the needles is carried out throughout the year, and when the rhizome system is still frozen in the spring, and the sun turns out to be quite hot, overdrying will inevitably occur. During this period, it is necessary to thaw the earthen lump under the plant so that it can feed on moisture. As a result, watering of conifers should be started from March 15th.

Use only warm water. The accumulated snow must be removed from the trunk so that the earth thaws as quickly as possible.

Popular varieties of Serbian spruce

Today, there are a large number of varieties of Serbian spruce. However, the greatest demand and popularity in the field of landscape design and garden cultivation have acquired: dwarf, high-mountain spear-shaped and wide-pin varieties. Some of them are described below.

Aurea

Picea Omorika Aurea is a coniferous perennial with a narrow-conical crown, up to 90 cm in diameter, yellow-green needles, the color of which becomes blue-green by autumn. The tree is small, by the age of 10 it grows up to 2.5 m. The maximum possible height of an adult specimen is 9 m. Aurea can boast of high frost resistance, down to -29 ° C, non-capriciousness and undemanding to soils.

Prefers to grow in well-lit areas, but can tolerate light partial shade.

Pendula

Spruce Pendula (Omorika Pendula) is distinguished by gracefully hanging elastic, flexible branches and dense, heavily pubescent, shiny needles of dark green color. The tree belongs to the category of medium-sized, has a compact size and an unusual narrow-weeping crown shape, up to 1.5 m in diameter. An adult plant grows up to 10 m.

We recommend that you learn how to properly transplant a spruce from the forest to the site.

Pendula is characterized by high resistance to frost, shade tolerance, resistance to many ailments and pests. Thanks to the hanging crown, the culture is often used to create original and creative compositions and mixborders near water bodies, stones.

Looks spectacular in specimen and group plantings.

Karelian

Serbian spruce Karel (Picea Omorika Karel) is considered one of the most popular and valuable varieties. The dwarf forms of the described spruce reach a height of no more than 60 cm, which allows the plant to be used in landscape design. The crown, slightly more than 1 m in diameter, consists of highly branching shoots, which are placed at different angles from the central conductor. The upper branches are usually located upward, the lower ones either downward or in a horizontal direction.

Karel does not grow very quickly, annually adding 7–10 cm in height. Spruce is characterized by excellent frost resistance, strong immunity, but for full growth and maintenance of decorativeness it needs nutritious, breathable soils.

Does not tolerate compacted soil and stagnant moisture, which have a detrimental effect on the condition of the root system.

Nana

The spectacular dwarf spruce Nana (Omorika Nana) has a slow growth rate and by the age of 10 it grows up to 120 cm. An adult plant can reach 4–5 m. Every year the growth of the crop increases by 7–10 cm. Nana has a wide-conical, very dense crown formed by short, hard shoots. The needles of the tree are not thick, on the upper side - yellow-green, on the bottom - bluish-gray with two stripes of white color.

Due to its compact size, Nana looks great on personal plots or in private gardens, it is used to create compositions paired with heather.

Wodan

The dwarf hybrid Wodan is characterized by slow growth rates and at the age of 30 reaches a height of 60 cm. The peculiarity of the variety is the original asymmetrical, pyramidal shape of the crown. The needles of the culture are collected in small bunches, slightly curved, have a bluish-green color, and are silvery on the underside. Wodan is one of the most decorative varieties. It is frost-resistant, gas- and smoke-resistant, shade-tolerant, not capricious to the composition of the soil and climatic conditions.

Looks great alone or in a group with other conifers in parks or gardens.

Application in landscape design

Derain white is decorative at any time of the year. In autumn and even in winter without foliage, it is a decoration of the garden thanks to its painted branches.It is also widely used because it is very unpretentious: it grows in illuminated places and in the shade, tolerates frost well, adapts well to the conditions of the urban environment, and tolerates the neighborhood of taller plants well. The scope of application of "Sibirika" is quite wide: it decorates the landscape of gardens, parks and squares, is used in landscaping city streets and territories of private estates. In landscape design they use:

• both single and group plantings, the dogwood looks beautiful against the background of white trunks of birches and dark thujas;
• for the design of alleys and park paths;
• for the formation of living fences in summer cottages and territories of country houses, where it will perfectly hide outbuildings, fences and walls;
• as a background for creating decorative compositions in squares and parks.

In garden design, the lawn is often placed in the main conspicuous place, but can also be used in mixed compositions in the depths of the site. They are used to decorate ensembles of herbaceous and coniferous plants, especially for decorating curtains. It goes well with barberry, honeysuckle. Delicate roses, multi-colored lilies and fluffy chrysanthemums stand out brightly against its variegated background. The variegated leaves of "Siberica" ​​look beautiful in the alpine hills, against the background of lawns with rich green grass, the crown of periwinkle, ivy and other climbing plants.

The dogwood looks spectacular in winter: against a snow-white background, its scarlet branches glow brightly, creating an elegant colorful landscape that pleases the eye. Derain white goes well with conifers of trees and shrubs: cypresses and blue spruces, juniper and creeping thuja. It is often used in the design of winter gardens. Plants are often planted under the shrub, covering the soil and contrasting in color, such as rejuvenated, aubrieta, and herbal carnation. A low living fence will beautifully divide the territory into separate sections intended for different purposes, and will close the buildings and walls.

Since derain perfectly tolerates gas pollution, hot asphalt vapors and other negative conditions of the city, it is widely used for landscaping streets. Most often, these are fences of very different sizes - from 1 to 2 m.School and kindergarten areas, sports and playgrounds are protected with green parapets - since the derain does not have toxic properties, therefore it is not dangerous for children, moreover, it has the ability to quickly heal after damage. In parks and squares, a ball-shaped lawn is often placed in the center of rabatki, lawns. With the help of a haircut "Siberica" ​​can be given various shapes: candles, hemispheres, columns, arcs, as well as various animals and geometric shapes that will serve as an adornment of large spaces. The decorative qualities of deren make it attractive and widely used in landscape design.

“Frost-resistant” varieties of garden strawberries (more often simply “strawberries”) need shelter as well as ordinary varieties (especially in those regions where there are snowless winters or frosts alternating with thaws). All strawberries have shallow roots. This means that without shelter, they freeze out. Assurances of sellers that strawberries are "frost-hardy", "winter-hardy", "endure frosts down to -35 ℃", etc., is a deception. Gardeners should remember that the root system of strawberries has never been changed.

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.

Natural toxins are found in many plants; those that are grown in gardens and orchards are no exception. So, in the seeds of apples, apricots, peaches there is hydrocyanic (hydrocyanic) acid, and in the tops and peel of unripe nightshades (potatoes, eggplants, tomatoes) - solanine. But do not be afraid: their number is too small.

It is believed that some vegetables and fruits (cucumbers, stalk celery, all varieties of cabbage, peppers, apples) have a "negative calorie content", that is, digesting more calories than they contain. In fact, the digestive process uses only 10-20% of the calories from food.

Tomatoes have no natural protection against late blight. If late blight attacks, any tomatoes (and potatoes too) die, no matter what is said in the description of varieties ("varieties resistant to late blight" is just a marketing ploy).

Convenient Android applications have been developed to help gardeners and gardeners. First of all, these are sowing (lunar, flower, etc.) calendars, thematic magazines, a selection of useful tips. With their help, you can choose a day favorable for planting each type of plant, determine the timing of their ripening and harvest on time.

Oklahoma farmer Carl Burns has developed an unusual variety of colorful corn called Rainbow Corn. The grains on each ear are of different colors and shades: brown, pink, purple, blue, green, etc. This result was achieved through many years of selection of the most colored common varieties and their crossing.

In Australia, scientists have begun experiments to clone several grape varieties from colder regions. Climate warming, which is predicted for the next 50 years, will lead to their disappearance. Australian varieties have excellent characteristics for winemaking and are not susceptible to diseases common in Europe and America.

It is necessary to collect medicinal flowers and inflorescences at the very beginning of the flowering period, when the content of nutrients in them is as high as possible. Flowers are supposed to be picked with hands, breaking off rough pedicels. The collected flowers and herbs are dried, scattered in a thin layer, in a cool room at a natural temperature without access to direct sunlight.

Care rules

It is not difficult to take care of the "Empress Wu" hosta, the plant does not put forward any special requirements. All she needs:

• watering;
• top dressing;
• loosening;
• pruning.

Due to the large size of the leaf plates, moisture quickly evaporates, with a lack of it, the edges of the leaves dry out, and the peduncles wither. On the other hand, excess moisture also has a detrimental effect on the plant, so frequent watering is needed, but not too abundant. It is recommended to moisturize the hosta daily, especially in hot weather.

The plant reacts equally well to mineral fertilizing and organic matter. To facilitate maintenance and not frequently fertilize, you can mulch the bushes with organic matter, in addition, such a procedure helps to retain moisture. A mixture of mullein, potassium sulfate (1 part), nitrate (1 part) and superphosphate (2 parts) is well suited for a plant. During the formation of buds and after their flowering, it is worth feeding the plant with potassium-phosphorus fertilizers with nitrogen. It is recommended to loosen the soil around the trunk often so that there is no earthen crust.

Faded shoots and dry leaf plates should be cut off. This will improve the appearance and help maintain the shape of the bush.There is no consensus among gardeners about cutting the ground part for the winter.

If the foliage is left for the winter, it serves as an additional shelter, but it must be cut off in early spring. With proper care of the host, "Empress Wu" can grow in the same place for 15 years without losing its decorative effect. This variety has frost-resistant properties and does not require shelter for the winter. In cold regions, for a safety net, you can cover the bush with foliage, and then sprinkle it with snow.

Reproduction methods

Reproduction of decorative larch trees is a rather difficult process. And not everyone can be successful the first time.

It is easier, of course, to buy seedlings in the nursery. But many people like to experiment.

Larch propagation can mainly be done in two ways:

• seeds;
• by cuttings.

To use the first method, you need to collect ripe buds. Remove the seeds and soak them in water for up to 2 weeks. Then the seeds are placed in a container with wet sand to a depth of 5 mm. And they leave them alone until next year. The only thing you need to make sure that the sand remains wet all the time.

Planting seedlings in open ground in spring, after noticeable warming. But it is better to keep them for another year in greenhouse conditions, planting seedlings in spacious containers.

Cutting is a more complicated method than the previous one. This method is used mainly in nurseries.

How to plant?

When planting larch on a trunk, it is important to take into account its timing. Experienced gardeners recommend planting a plant in early spring or in the first half of autumn.

Particular attention should be paid to the choice of the site, since in the case of transplantation, the tree may die - it does not like this procedure. You need to choose a sunny place for planting, but the seedling will feel comfortable in partial shade.

The crop prefers to grow in light soil with good drainage.

In general, these trees are not too demanding on growing conditions.

The planting process is as follows:

1. dig a hole 80–90 cm deep and 60–70 cm in diameter;
2. make high-quality drainage with a layer of 20 cm;
3. prepare the substrate - for this, combine the garden soil, humus and dolomite flour, add part of the mixture to the pit;
4. pour 10–20 liters of water;
5. carefully remove the seedling from the container along with the earthy clod, straighten the roots, if necessary, remove the tips with a knife;
6. place the seedling together with the support, usually it is already included in the container upon purchase;
7. make sure that when planting, the root collar remains above ground level;
8. fill the free space with the remaining mixture and tamp the planting site;
9. mulch the soil with peat, sawdust or chopped bark in a layer of 5 cm.

Types and varieties of perovskii

There are not so many plants in the Perovskiy genus: Russian sage unites only 7 species. At the same time, only two Perovskii are grown as an ornamental plant.

Perovskia abrotanoides is a herbaceous perennial with a height of 40 to 120 cm, which from afar seems to be a relative of lavender. The plant forms round, neat and very dense bushes. Shoots are densely leafy with strongly dissected, oblong leaves. Dark blue, with a lilac tint, the color of small flowers in the heads of inflorescences crowning the branches creates a spectacular haze over the turf.

Perovskia atriplicifolia with semi-woody shoots belongs to perennial dwarf shrubs. This plant is much taller, from 90 cm to one and a half meters in height. The shoots are gray, upright, very thin, and the leaves appear silver and give the entire plant a metallic velvety texture. The crowning shoots of the inflorescence reach 30 cm in length, looser than in most other species. Outwardly, it seems more massive and graceful at the same time.

Kirkazon

The best greenery for large vertical surfaces among landscape designers is considered to be a large-leaved liana - karkazon. The density of the foliage is large and elegant, it can even compete with trimmed shrubs.

And flowers of an extraordinary shape against the background of a dense green fountain seem exotic and unique. Powerful creeping vines reach ten meters in height, sometimes even higher.

The advantages of carcasson include rapid growth, huge size, a crown resembling a tile, contrasting with the classic greenery, an unusual color that strikes with its brightness. The unique inflorescences in the form of a curved tube, hidden in the depths of the foliage, amaze with their outlandish appearance.

Description of the species

Weymouth pine (aka white) is a fairly common species. This tree came to Europe from North America in 1705. This event happened thanks to the efforts of Weymouth, a famous English explorer. She came to Russia a little later - in 1793. At home, this tree grows on moist sandy soils. There have been cases when these trees were found in mountainous areas.

When young, this tree grows very quickly. During the first 30–40 years of life, it usually grows to a height of 20 meters. Subsequently, its growth is significantly reduced, reaching a maximum mark of 80 meters with a barrel diameter of about 1.8 meters. Most trees of this species reach a height of 40 meters, and the diameter of the trunk itself can exceed the mark of 50-60 cm.

The correct conical shape of the crown in young animals becomes more spreading and rounded over time.

Light gray bark of a young tree, tender, smooth, after the age of 30 it becomes darker (even with a purple tint), rough with longitudinal veins-cracks. Thin and long bluish-green 10-centimeter needles grow in bunches of 5 pieces. Each needle lives for three years, after which it falls off, and a new one grows in its place.

Weymouth pine is a dioecious tree, since there are both female and male cones on the same plant. Female dark brown cones growing in clusters are rather large - 15–20 cm. Male yellow cones filled with pollen are small - only 10–15 mm. All cones are similar to spruce, have an elongated shape and soft scales. In the 2nd year after pollination, reddish nut seeds with small wings begin to ripen on these cones in September. Flowering of white eastern pine can begin in early April and end in May in trees that have reached 20-25 years of age.

Reproduction methods

There are several ways to grow a given host:

• dividing the bush;
• cuttings;
• seeds.

Dividing is a very easy and effective breeding method. If everything is done correctly, the time of the procedure is insignificant. Adult bushes over 3 years old dig up and divide the rhizome into several parts with adventitious roots. They are planted according to the planting rules. Cutting is best done in summer. An escape with a "heel" is planted in light nutritious soil, you can directly on the garden bed or in a container. The leaf should be cut off, so the stalk will quickly start up the roots. The shoot is covered with a glass or plastic cap, and when the roots appear, the shelter is removed (this, as a rule, takes several days). Further care of the plant is usual.

The seed method of reproduction is the most laborious and long-lasting. For the plant to acquire a decorative look, it is worth waiting for 5 years, besides, the germination of seeds is not too high. For those who decide to try, the breeding procedure is as follows:

• in February, the seeds are placed in the refrigerator for a month, on the lower shelf for stratification;
• after that they are kept in "Kornevin" for 20-30 minutes;
• then they are sown in sterile soil 6-7 cm deep, the container should also be treated with potassium permanganate;
• the container is covered with foil or glass and kept in a semi-shaded place at a temperature of + 18-25 ° C;
• shoots appear after 3 weeks, after the formation of 2 true leaves, the shoots dive into separate containers with a mixture of soil and sand (4: 1);
• watered through the pallet;
• the shelter is gradually removed, and after 10 days the sprouts can be taken out into the open air;
• when the seedlings are fully grown, they can be planted in the place of growth.

With a little effort, you can get a majestic shrub on the site that will attract the eyes of everyone present.

How to care?

To grow the Serbian spruce "Nana", you must adhere to certain rules. Its development, appearance and lifespan depend on the care of a tree.

Watering and fertilizing

Freshly planted and young spruces need good watering. Watering the tree is necessary as the soil dries up, but do not add too much water. Otherwise, the root system may start to rot. Watering is carried out from April to October.

One plant consumes about 10 liters of water. As the spruce grows, the frequency of watering decreases, but the volume of liquid must be increased, based on the proportions of 10 liters per 1 m of tree height. In the hot season, in addition to moisturizing the root system, it is recommended to spray the crown of the plants. This is necessary to prevent the needles from drying out, to remove dust, and also as a prophylaxis against the appearance of spider mites.

You can fertilize the "Nana" variety with special compounds for conifers. Only those trees that grow in infertile soil need frequent feeding. Usually it is enough to apply fertilizers 2 times a year.

Mulching and loosening

During the first two years after planting the plant, it is necessary to carry out the loosening procedure quite often. It is recommended to loosen the soil near the tree to a depth of 5 cm after each watering. The lower branches of a young plant may touch the ground and must be lifted gently while loosening.

In adult spruces, small roots grow to the very surface of the soil, and they can be damaged during loosening. Peat or pine bark is used for mulching.

Pruning and cleaning rules

With proper care, the Serbian Nana spruce grows evenly and has an attractive symmetrical shape. In this case, it is necessary to cut it only for sanitary purposes, which include cutting dry, broken and frozen branches. It is advisable to carry out decorative pruning in order to give the plant a certain shape in the winter period. It is recommended to cut off no more than 4 cm from the branches. After the procedure, fertilizers should be applied and the tree should be treated with special means against diseases and pests.

In addition to pruning, needles must be cleaned annually. This procedure is especially relevant for young trees, since their branches are tightly adjacent to each other. In the depths, sunlight may not reach the branches, and they will also be poorly ventilated, and dust will begin to accumulate on the needles. Such conditions are favorable for spider mites and promote their reproduction.

Wintering

Spruce "Nana" is a winter-hardy plant. However, too low temperatures can lead to freezing of a part of the crown, which will then have to be removed. First of all, young trees need protection from frost in the first couple of years after planting. The soil around the trunk is covered with peat, and the plant itself is wrapped in agrofibre.

If the spruce grows in regions with harsh winters, then adult plants should also be covered to avoid freezing. This should be done until the tree reaches at least 10 years of age. If the plant was not covered for the winter, it is necessary to periodically shake off the snow from its branches.

Spruce "Nana" is vulnerable not only in winter, but also immediately after its end.From mid-February until the buds appear, the tree loses a lot of moisture, and the root system is dormant and cannot absorb the required amount of water. During this period, direct sunlight can burn the needles.

Rules for planting and caring for larch on a trunk

Planting and caring for larch on a trunk is not laborious. If you strictly follow the rules of cultivation, a beautiful plant will decorate a flowerbed even for an amateur gardener.

Recommended timing

When planting a crop, it is important to consider the timing. According to experienced summer residents, early spring and early September are considered the most favorable time for planting larch in open ground.

Important! If you plant a seedling in a hot time, then, most likely, it will die or it will be poorly accepted and hurt.

Site selection and soil preparation

Particular attention should be paid to the location during planting. It should be well lit by the sun or in partial shade

The tree does not like transplanting, therefore, it is necessary to determine the site immediately, so that later it does not have to be changed.

Weeping larch on a trunk prefers light soil with good drainage, but perceives sandy soil and marshland poorly.

It is necessary to select a site remote from the flow of groundwater

Landing algorithm

You need to plant a culture according to the following scheme:

1. Dig a hole up to 70 cm in diameter, up to 90 cm deep.
2. Make drainage.
3. Add a mixture of soil, dolomite flour and humus.
4. Drizzle with two buckets of water.
5. Place the seedling in the hole along with a lump of earth and a support so that its root collar is above ground level.
6. Fill the planting hole with soil, tamp.
7. Spread the mulch over the surface in a layer of 5 cm (peat, tree bark or sawdust is suitable).

There is no need to water the plant after planting.

How to grow larch on a trunk

Getting a beautiful tree in your garden is not difficult. If you follow all the rules of cultivation, then the result will certainly delight the gardener. Caring for weeping larch consists of carrying out the usual procedures: watering, fertilizing, loosening, pruning and preparing for the winter.

Comment! The older the representative of the culture, the less she needs care.

Watering and feeding schedule

While the weeping larch seedlings are young, they need regular moisture. If the summer turned out to be dry, then two buckets of water should be consumed for each instance 2 times a week. If the season is rainy, with frequent precipitation, then additional moisture is not necessary. An adult plant need not be watered at all, natural moisture will be enough for it.

As for fertilization, for active growth of larch on a trunk, fertilizing based on phosphorus and potassium is necessary, sometimes it is good to make compost. Fertilizing the crop should be at the initial stage of growth and in the spring. Feeding with urea is allowed in June.

Mulching and loosening

At the stage of planting the plant, to retain moisture, it is recommended to lay a layer of mulch under it. In addition, the surrounding soil should be regularly loosened and free of weeds. The first couple of years, the procedure is carried out to a depth of 20 cm.

Important! In the area where weeping larch grows, sod formation should be avoided

Formation of the crown of weeping larch on a trunk

It is possible to form a stem by cutting the plant. To do this, it is recommended to choose a central shoot and remove excess branches from it for several years. The crown is created by pinching the tops of the shoots.

In spring and autumn, weeping larch needs sanitary pruning, when weak, diseased, dried branches are removed from the tree and adult branches are cut by 1/3.

The stem, if necessary, is allowed to be tied to the support

Preparing for winter

Adult conifers do not need preparation for frost, they can easily tolerate low temperatures and do not freeze. But young trees are recommended to be covered with non-woven materials for the winter.In addition, in late autumn, it is advisable to remove all dried branches from the larch.

Application in landscape design

Daurian larch was introduced into horticulture in 1827. Since the last century, it has been successfully cultivated in Ukrainian arboretums and botanical gardens.

The needles of the Daurian breed bloom in May, ahead of other related species

Gmelin's larch effectively greens parks and large gardens, where it is planted in the background. The tree feels good in an urban environment.

Daurian larch can be combined with other representatives of its genus. Against their background, it stands out favorably due to the bright green needles. You can plant it next to a juniper, pine, thuja.

In autumn, Gmelin larch is no less spectacular due to its orange-yellow color.

The needles of the Daurian breed fall off in October. In winter, larch hardly shades the site and buildings on it. The needles have a strong aroma and phytoncidal properties. In summer, plantings create light shading.

Daurian breed is effective when planted in alleys

Gmelin larch can be planted as a protective strip, used for decorating forests. This type is suitable for both group and single plantings.

Dahurian larch cones resemble small roses in shape, their color changes from purple-lilac to bright crimson
Gmelin larch goes well with rhododendrons, their tandem looks spectacular by the water

Comment! When planting Dahurian larch, it is important to leave enough space around. A grown tree can then interfere.
