Works in the flower garden in August
August and the flower garden
In the first decade, proceed to transplant 4 - 5-summer lilies. This month, it is practiced by the multiplication of bulbs, which are formed in the axils of leaves of some varieties.
Collect them after flowering, when they are already well separated, and treat with an 0,1-percentage solution of potassium permanganate for 20 minutes.
Sow in grooves depth 2-3 cm made across the ridge. It is necessary to pour clean river sand to the bottom. Distance between grooves 20 cm, between the holes in the row 5-6, see. If the land is dry, pour it a day before sowing.
At the end of the second decade, you can start dividing the pions. It is better to start with a peony of medicinal and varieties of hybrid origin, which blossom earlier than others.
The beginning of August is the time to divide 3 - 4-summer primroses. At this age they have many sockets with their own roots. Plant them one at a time at a new site at a distance of 30-40 cm, as the primrose grows rapidly. If there is a lack of moisture, water the plants regularly, then by winter they will have time to take root.
In the second half of the month, divide and plant the rhizome perennials - dorodnikum, astra, delphinium, lichenis, nivian, pyrethrum, phloq, astilbe, day-lily. The technique of their division is the same.
First cut off all the shoots with a pruner. The rhizomes of some species, for example, the delphinium, the niwian, easily break up into pieces when digging and shaking the earth.
To share others (astilba, phlox, daylily) use a well-ground garden knife. If the specimens are old, take a sharp shovel.
Plant the young, healthy parts of the rhizomes. In delphinium and phlox, it is desirable to treat them with an 0,1-percent solution of potassium permanganate, and cut the sections with wood ash. Delenki should have 3-5 kidneys and a good lobe of roots.
Continue to look after all flowering crops.
Spend, loosen and in case of arid weather, water the flights: asters, marigold, petunias, sage, and zinnia. Cut off the faded shoots, this will prolong flowering.
If you want to collect the seeds, then save some flowers or inflorescences and wait for the ripening of fruits - fluff on the baskets of asters, pomegranate seedlings and zinnias, cups of salvia, yellowing of the petunia boxes, etc.
This month, harvest the seeds of cornflowers, godemias, marigolds, clarkeys, gillyflowers, poppies, matthioles, nasturtiums, sweet peas, as well as carnations of the Turkish and Grenadines, a bell, after which the plants are removed.
Seeds kreopsisa, gaylardii, gypsophila, bell gather during the moment of baking and drying fruits.
Then, faded shoots cut at the base, remove the dead leaves, loosen the ground, top the plants with superphosphate (30 g per 1 sq. M.) And potassium chloride (15 g per 1 sq. M).
Fruits (boxes, baskets, beans, umbrellas) and seeds spread a thin layer in boxes on paper or in any containers and put for drying in a warm, dry, ventilated room.
In early August, the last time you feed the dahlias (25 g superphosphate and 15 g potassium salt on 5 plants).
Continue pasynkovanie lateral shoots - break the middle of the three. In this case, the remaining ones form longer peduncles and large inflorescences.
At the end of the month, plant the seedlings of biennials and perennials on a permanent place.
Distance between the seedlings in the pansies, forget-me-nots, daisies - 20 cm, at the bell and cloves - 30 cm, for the hepherd, foxglove, stock-roses - 40. See long-term carnation place through 20 cm, feverfew, aquilegia, gaylard, primrose, nivian - through 30, delphinium - through 40 see. When planting, you can make in the holes 5-6 g nitrofoski.

Beautiful ampelnye petunias I usually keep at home until next season. About the spring I plant seedlings in large plastic containers with large drainage holes and drop them in the garden. In autumn, I dig up the tanks and cut off the stems of the plants at an altitude of 10-15cm. Then I transfer them to the film greenhouse. Against mushroom
diseases I pour under the root of a solution of Fund-ash (according to the instructions), and treat the pests with Actelicom (according to instructions). After the 2-not-quarantine in the greenhouse, I carry petunias into the apartment and install a fluorescent lamp above them (I lighten up from 8 in the morning to 8 pm). Once a month I feed up liquid fertilizer for flowering plants, water and spray as necessary. In early February, with cut branches I chop cuttings and root them in wet river sand, after having been treated with a stimulator of root-formation. A month later, rooting cuttings transplant cups with a nutrient substrate, and in May I plant them in a permanent place. Alyona
