Flower bulbs and their names (photo)

There are several categories of bulbous plants in the central strip of the country.

Lilies, tulips, hyacinths, daffodils - these flowers can often be found on beds and household plots.

Crocuses, muscari, hazel grouses, freesia, snowdrops are plants that have small bulbs. They bloom one of the first after a long winter.

Gladiolus is a tuberous plant. It differs from the other bulbs with late flowering.

Selection

When planting a bulb of flowers under the winter, your garden will play bright colors in the first spring days.

In the open areas beautiful fine-mouthed plants look great: crocuses, muscari, scylls and snowdrops. They are planted at the beginning of September, in warmer regions - in the middle of autumn.

Flowers with large bulbs: lilies, daffodils, tulips - planted throughout October.

The peculiarity of bulbous plants is that they can be planted both as annuals and as perennial flowers. If the flower bulbs (photo of which is higher) are not scooped after flowering, they will bloom and the next year.

Place and soil

In the rock garden look great scylla and crocurs. You can also organize small flower beds under large bushes and trees.

Land for planting bulbs is prepared in advance. Choose places with fertile soil, excluding areas with stagnant water.

Winter storage

Store bulbs of flowers (photos and names of garden plants have a variety, and they are described below), subject to the following conditions: the optimum temperature and humidity.

The storage features of some onion bulbs are described below.

• Caladium. Work on the selection of planting material begins before the first frost. The bulbs are dried, the sheets are cut off. Store in moss in a cool place. With the onset of spring planted in flower pots, and after frosts - in the open ground.
• Freesia. Dig up onions in the last days of September, separate children, cleaned of soil. For the purpose of prophylaxis, disinfect in a solution of potassium permanganate and carbophos, and dry it. Prepared bulbs Fold in bags of paper or boxes wooden, top covered with peat. Store in a cool place.
• Lilies. Dug out the bulbs in the middle of September immediately immersed in a fungicidal solution. Next, dries and stacks in boxes for storage. The most favorable temperature for planting lilies is +10 degrees.

Proper storage of bulbs is a guarantee that in your garden will grow strong and healthy plants with a long flowering period.

Landing rules

Bulbs of flowers before the autumn planting are carefully inspected for damage and rot. Slightly defective soak in a solution of potassium permanganate. Sick and rotten throw out.

At the selected location, the top layer of the earth is removed and the bulbs are spread out at a distance of 5 to 10 cm from each other, depending on the variety of flowers, covered with earth, lightly pressing down the onion, mulching and watering.

Flower bulbs for the flowerbed (photos and names of some of them are given above) after the correct landing in the soil, decorate with their flowery any country plot.

• Tulips attract attention with a variety of colors and an unusual form of a flower. Undemanding in care.
• Lilies have many varieties. The land for their planting should be drained and fertilized. The planting period depends on the plant variety.
• Muscari grows on sunny places in a loose and drained land.
• Crocuses. For these flowers, quality lighting and permeable soil are very important;
• Narcissus - unpretentious, can grow beautifully in the sun and in the penumbra.

Digging out small-bellied

Scylla, muskari grow in one place for about five years. They are divided, when the nests are much expanded and the flowers are small. Dug bulbs of flowers, since the end of August. Bulbs are cleaned from roots and soil, dried and immediately planted.

Crocus - this plant can not be transplanted for 3-4 years. If you want to get large bulbs or plant a plant, then you can dig up in a year. Terms of harvesting onions depend on the period of flowering of the plant. The material for planting is dried, disinfected, the wounds are sprinkled with coal. Weak and sick bulbs are thrown out. Store in boxes in a cool dry place.

Cleaning daffodils and tulips

Daffodils for lush flowering are excavated once in five years. Harvest the bulbs when the sheets turn yellow, usually in the third decade of August. During this time the bulb manages to pick up all the nutrients from the green part of the plant.

The daughter bulbs are separated from the maternal, slightly swinging them. If there is a wound at the site of the fault, then it is sprinkled with crushed coal or ash. Further, the bulbs are treated with fungicides, dried in fresh air, protecting from sunlight, and stored in a room where the air temperature is +20 degrees. The bulbs are laid with wounds up for their scarring.

All varietal tulips are excavated and planted annually to preserve the characteristics of each variety. Other types of tulips are not transplanted for an average of five years.

The flower head of tulips must be removed 4 days after opening the flower in order to get strong and healthy bulbs. The stem and leaves of the plant are left to feed the underground part of the plant.

When cutting flowers for bouquets, it is necessary to leave 3-4 leaves so that a large bulb can form and the plant is capable of flowering the next year.

Winter in the open ground plants are well tolerated. When digging bulbs immediately after flowering for the next year, the flowers will be small. Tulip bulbs begin to clean after the drying of the stems and leaves in clear and dry weather. They are sorted by varieties and cleaned under a canopy, protecting them from the sun. Bulbs are cleaned and released from old scales in a few days. Strong and healthy bulbs have scales of light brown shade. Then they are placed in a container for storage and put in a room where the temperature is from +20 to +23 degrees. In such conditions, large bulbs are stored before planting them in the fall. Boxes with small bulbs are transferred to a cool room, so they do not wither.

Digging out gladioli

Harvest bulbs in September-October, when the air temperature will be +15 degrees. In order to prevent infection of the corms, vesicles almost completely cut off the stalk of the plant. Young onions cut from the roots, leaving them a length of a centimeter. Maternal corms are thrown out. Next, the bulbs are washed in running water and treated with fungicidal or insecticidal agents according to the instructions.

It is important to carefully dry the onions. Three weeks they are stored at a temperature of 25 to 35 degrees, the next six weeks at 25 degrees, then cleaned for permanent storage, maintaining the temperature of +7 degrees, laying bulbs in cardboard or wooden boxes. The planting material on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator is best preserved. Occasionally bulbs should be inspected.

Plant breeding, for example, through flower bulbs (photos and names are given above), regardless of their variety, is carried out according to uniform rules. Following them, your garden will be perfumed with beautiful lush flowers, from early spring to late autumn.
