    Are lilies cascading, ampelous, blue?

    • OOO "Sad"

      - Remember: there are no lilies climbing, ampelous, cascading, blue, blue ... If the seller is actively imposing such a product on you, do not fall for the trick. Do not be fooled by the pictures attached to the product - this is a frank photoshop. Even various certificates are being forged now.
      My advice
      Take planting material in color. Only then are you guaranteed to buy the right variety. The season for the sale of blooming lilies usually begins in late June. In this case, you can often find quite tall (up to 2 m) and with very large inflorescences of OT hybrids. Anna FEDOSOVA, landscape designer, Riga

    If the lilies are affected by gray rot.
    It is an infectious disease that develops throughout the year, especially during the flowering period. The leaves first appear brownish spots, which then turn pale, forming a darker, watery edge. The spots increase in size and gradually cover the entire leaf, causing its death. With a high degree of development of gray rot, stems, buds, petals, bulbs are affected. The infection in the soil on the plant remains and in the root outlet of the leaves is hibernating. Disease in the spring passes from sick plants to healthy ones. Control measures
    ■ Etch the bulbs in the fungicide solution before planting.
    ■ In spring, after emergence of shoots, shed the soil with a solution of fungicide (0,2% Fundazolum, 0,1% Topsin-M,
    0,1% Rajek, 0,1% Bordeaux fluid, etc.), and the plants themselves spray 2-3 times per season with the same drugs.
    ■ Bulbs should be cleaned from the ground after digging, from the ground, to inspect, to remove the affected flakes and to dry.

  5. Yesterday, at an exhibition in Novosibirsk, I bought "foolish" perennial gladioli, which, like, do not dig out and lilies with large sprouts. What should I do with purchases to save planting material?

    A pest from the leaf beetle family attacked the lilies - a lily cracker. The beetle itself is very cute: lacquered red, with a black belly. Gardeners aptly called him a fireman. But his larvae, which we see in the photo, in addition to harming bulbous plants, also do not look very aesthetically pleasing, as they are covered with toxic brown mucus
    from their excrement. For this reason, they are not eaten even by birds.
    The beetle and its larvae eat leaves and buds, especially lilies and hazel grouses. Moreover, larvae are much more gluttonous than adults.
    The most reliable and common way to deal with a pest is to collect it manually. Getting started is better from early spring, before adult beetles lay their eggs. Since dealing with larvae is not a pleasant occupation, you certainly cannot do without gloves.
    Years of pest begins in May, but often stretches from April to June. If the plantings are examined often and carefully, then a few weeks from the pest can get rid of. Chemicals designed specifically to fight with the lily-bladder, does not exist. Usually use the remedies recommended for combating Colorado beetles. To use them is only when a massive invasion of the pest.

    On the leaves of lilies in my flower garden I found some dirty lumps. I tried to crush one - inside were red larvae, similar to the larvae of the Colorado potato beetle. What kind of pest is it and how to get rid of it?

    Two years ago, my husband and I inherited a plot from my grandmother. And the first thing I did was to break a lily flower bed.
    Started with two bulbs of Asian lily. Now in my collection about thirty kinds and every year they are becoming more and more. I already feel almost knowledgeable in growing lilies, so I will gladly share my observations.
    THE SOIL
    My lilies grow on a sunny plot. I prepare the soil on the day of planting the bulb. I mix soil, ash, purchased peat (1: 1: 1), add fertilizers (nitrogen, phosphorus and potash in 1 tsp). Then I make a hole for three diameters of a bulb, I fill it with the prepared mixture to half, put an onion and again priporoshivayu the same mixture, and then the ground. The distance between the lilies is left 15-20, see.
    SUPPLIERS
    Since when planting I make all the necessary fertilizing, then on
    throughout the growing season lilies do not fertilize. Only during the budding period I once water the infusion of grass. Finely chop the weeds and fill them with water (10 l). The fermentation period is 5 days in the sun. Before use, I dilute the infusion with water in a ratio of 1: 1. I spend abundant watering once every 10 days, only so that water does not fall on the leaves.
    AFTER FLOWERING
    I start pruning when all the leaves are completely yellow. Peneček leave 5-6 see
    For the winter I hide my lilies with straw, and on top of the roofing material (you can use other material that does not allow water to pass through). In the spring, as soon as the snow comes down, I remove the shelter.
    I buy bulbs and adult plants from spring to late autumn. If I buy a flowering lily in the summer, then I plant it immediately to a permanent place, and it pleases me with its divine beauty until the cold.

    Try to cause bulb formation artificially. To do this, during the budding period, remove the flower buds from the plant. In this case, even in non-bulbous lilies bulbs are formed, or bulb-buds grow at the base. When they get stronger, separate them and arrange them on a separate bed to grow.
    Remove the buds at the very beginning of the formation. If they have already painted, they start to blossom, it's useless to do it. Separated from the stem of the bulb in late summer planted in the ground at a depth of 2-3 cm, watered, mulched. For the third year after planting, the plants will bloom.
    This method is good in that it can easily obtain a sufficient amount of planting material. However, to obtain bulbs, you have to sacrifice flowering ...

    I grow a beautiful lily, but it does not give either children or bulbochek. They say that it can be propagated by scales, but the bulb is one, and I feel sorry for it. Is it possible to propagate a lily in some other way?

    After the end of flowering, feed the lilies with superphosphate and potassium sulfate. You can also use complex fertilizers with an increased content of these elements (for example, "Kemira Autumn", "Autumn").
    Lilies respond well to the introduction of wood ash 3-4 times per season. This technique significantly increases the resistance to disease and the intensity of flowering plants.

    Last year planted lilies late, so I did not have time to feed them. It did not happen in the spring. Now they are already blooming. Than they can be fed up?

    Summer is not the best time to plant lilies. But it is during flowering that they are now most often sold in% of the markets. The fact is that sellers are much more profitable to sell a flowering plant, the price of which is higher than the bulb in the fall. But no matter how beautiful the dug plant looks, one must remember that the bulb has not yet ripened, and in the end it is we who are interested in it. Therefore, in order for the bulb to survive, before planting, it is necessary to remove all the buds from the plant, organize partial shade for it, and water it well.
    Best of all, the transplant in the flowering state is tolerated by the unpretentious Asian hybrids. But even they sometimes take a long time and get sick.

    Usually, lilies are planted in autumn or spring. And recently they began to sell in blossoming kind, moreover, there are many interesting colors. Should I buy flowering lilies for planting?

    You can not deprive the lily of the leaves so early. While the stems are green, they are never cut at all, but only slightly shortened, removing the testes. Preparing for the winter, they gradually give up the nutrients to the bulb, which gives it the opportunity to increase in size and lay the flower buds for the next year.
    It is best to trim prickly yellow stems. As a rule, it occurs one and a half months after the lilies bloom. Otherwise, next year you may not see a lush bloom. Keep this in mind when you decide to pick a bouquet of lilies. Never cut the entire stem. Leave at least his quarter with the leaves to restore the bulb. Cut only those plants that have at least 5-7 buds. They already have a large bulb that can withstand this operation. If the lily has only one or two buds, it is still better not to touch it.

    I never trim my lilies after flowering, but my mother said that it is necessary to do this. Is it so?

    Lilies are one of the most unpretentious flower plants. Three years can grow in one place, you just need to feed and weed.
    During this period, the bulb has time to acquire "babies", and if they are not planted, the flowers grow smaller. In my garden, more than 100 varieties of these plants of different shades grow. Moreover, as practice has shown, the most resistant to cold and unfavorable conditions of growing OT-and LA-hybrids.
    When landing on the bottom, you need to pour a layer of sand-5-8, see. As a fertilizer I use Mullein. I grow it in the proportion of 1: 10 and I insist for three days. Then I dilute 1 l with a bucket of water. It is enough to give such fertilizer to plants 2-3 times per season.
    Of the pests, the most dangerous is the red lily moth, which is called a “fireman” for its bright color. These insects leave mucous lumps of a blackish-brown color on the underside of the leaves - this is a laying of eggs that must be destroyed immediately so that the larvae do not have time to appear. They are pink in color, similar to the offspring of the Colorado potato beetle, only without spots on the sides and covered with green-brown lumps of mucus. Larvae are very voracious - they can completely destroy the leaves of plants.
    I fight these pests with the same insecticides that are used against the Colorado potato beetle, such as Acte-liquor, Decis, Aktara, and Karate. The same drugs help and from a spider mite, which also badly harms the lilies.
    Lilies bloom longer if the stamens are severed, until they "dust", preventing the pollen from entering the petals, which it acts on.

    Royal lily from seeds
    In autumn, with the lilies collect the boxes, when they begin to crack. Caps dry all winter in gauze pouches. In February-March, the seeds are taken from the boxes and planted in prepared land for seedlings. Seedlings are exposed to the sunny window sill, and when the leaves appear, plant flowers from each other on 5, see.
    A box of lilies is taken to the garden in late May, where the plants spend the whole summer. The box itself is buried in the ground.
    In autumn, as soon as the ground begins to freeze, the box is covered with a thick layer of leaves -20 cm. And only the next spring, after removing the leaves, lilies are transplanted to a permanent place at a distance of 20 cm from each other.
