4 Council for generous flowering tulips in the garden
Spring - the reign of bulbous plants to our beds. And one of the most popular - beautiful tulips, which are in almost every garden. Simple tips to help you get plentiful flowering and bright!
Schedule fertilizing
Tulips are growing well and without fertilizing, being content with what we have. But not every flower bed boasts a fairly fertile soil. The more that dressing allow not replant tulips every year.
It is best to use the complex mineral fertilizers. For example, the NPK or similar means, and wherein the potassium and phosphorus more nitrogen. Number of entering reduce by 2 times.
When fed a tulip?
- immediately after the snow;
- when the buds are growing;
- at the end of flowering.
You can make only 1 dressing - first or second. If you do not want to mess around. Flowers still will thank you.
Please, do not make at Tulip flowerbed manure. Because of him, the bulbs may rot.
Watering the tulips? Yes!
Someone may object: "Water the tulips? Nothing to do"! As my neighbor said, when a dog has nothing to do, she paints the booth.
But in fact by May the weather becomes very warm and sunny fall money. The moisture quickly evaporates from the soil after tillage. And the tulips - real vodohleby. No rain for several days? I advise you to spend 15 minutes picking up a watering can.
Tulips watered even 10-14 days after flowering. It is necessary that the bulb under the ground completely finished their development (and formation!). Many forces will not take - use a decorative flower in the garden is colossal.
Seeds do not need
Cutting of spring flowers for bouquets are not just welcome. It is necessary for the health of the tulip!
Tear off all the flowers tulips after withering. After all, the ripening seeds in onion leaves a lot of effort. If we assume the formation of "korobchki", the following year the flowers are not as lush, with the formation of high-grade children, too, can cause problems.
But do not touch the leaves. They still needed to power the bulb. Wait before all the tulip withered tops.
Rest and drive

Some people believe that all the tulip bulbs need to be sure to dig up the summer. Otherwise, the flowers become smaller, and the plant itself begins to lose its varietal characteristics. This is not quite true.
Really. You may notice that the tulips growing in one place for many years, reluctant to bloom. It does not look so decorative, like relatives, who worry every year. But at one point tulip bulb may well grow 3-4 years. If the two requirements: it does not freeze in the winter and the ground is not yet depleted.
Then the bulbs should still dig after the complete decay of the leaves. Tulips dried and stored in a dark place is required (e.g., the box). In autumn it comes time to put them back on the beds. If you have seen diseases and pests of tulips, it is better to change the place and carefully cultivate the land "under the diagnosis."
