    When creating an alley of lilacs, we were advised to plant plants. in the trench. How to do this and what is the advantage of this method?

      It is similar to the way of landing in pits. More labor-intensive, but also more effective, as more land is ennobled, which for a long time improves the quality of life of the lilac.
      But do not repeat the error. Often, to increase the fertility of the soil (especially its lower layers), many people lay a large quantity of fresh manure on the bottom of the trench, and soil with nutritional supplements is covered with it.

      Fresh manure, decomposing, begins to work as biofuel. We get a garden bed with bioheating. It is important to remember that for lilacs planted in autumn this is bad. Then its vegetation begins this at times, the buds blossom, while the winter hardiness of the plant decreases sharply, and in winter it can freeze. Sometimes on sites with a close occurrence of groundwater, marshy or wherever there is a "vagabond" in the spring because of a dense subsoil layer, lilacs are planted not in pits, but on artificially created hills. For this, rubble and coarse-grained sand are poured onto the surface of the earth in a layer of 10-15 cm. On it is an 50-70-centimeter layer of fertile soil, adding mineral fertilizers. A seedling is planted on this mound and its roots are covered with soil. The soil is compacted and watered. You can arrange drip irrigation. Such landings necessarily mulch.

    Lilac is very beautiful during flowering, but this period is so short-lived!

    Its splendor can be prolonged if you plant different varieties of flowering varieties of common lilac - from the earliest to the latest. So you have three weeks to extend the flowering period. And you can connect the views; So, after the common lilac, the Hungarian lilac blooms, and then the Amur lilac.

    The cut stalk has a hollow stalk into which water will enter. Constant humidity contributes to the appearance of diseases. And when breaking, we tear off a part of the old rhizome, which the plant no longer needs. This breakage cork, and water is not terrible for plants.

    Many summer residents acquire lilacs on the plot - a beautifully flowering and rather unpretentious shrub. It can grow well with almost no care. But if you provide him with at least minimal care, especially in the fall, the lilac will show itself next year in all its glory.
    In October, it is necessary to clean lilac trunks from moss, old bark, etc. Cleaning can be done with a coarse rag or special scraper. Everything removed from the trunks must be burned. To make it easier to collect this garbage, before cleaning under a bush it is convenient to spread the film. After processing, the lilac should be supplemented with organic, best of all the manure that has been reparted, and whitewash.
    Spruce circles need to be dug, but no more than 10, see. Near the root necks, the depth of digging should not exceed 6-7 cm, because the root system of the lilac is very close to the surface of the earth. Clods of soil raised during digging can not be broken. In spring it will be enough to raze them with rakes.

    Choose a site
    For lilac, it is important that the soil is not acidic (or dig in 1 sq.m in advance, add 300 g of dolomite flour), fertile, well drained. From an overabundance of moisture, the most active suction roots die. The site select sunny - in the shade the plant will not be so luxuriously blossomed. Plant better on a cloudy day or evening. Prepare the pit in advance (for 1 -2 days). Because of the surface lilac root system, make it not so much deep (40-70 cm) as wide (70-100 cm). Well sip a hole (even if it rained the day before).
    From place to place
    If we are talking about the transplantation of an adult plant, it must first be prepared - on the eve of a plentiful flooding of the near-trunk circle. The next day cut the bush: cut some of the new shoots (from the shoot) to the ground, cut the tops (1 / 3) of the remaining (both young and old). After such preparation, the plant can be excavated. To facilitate transportation under the bush, slip the film, on which and drag the plant to a new location, then transfer it to a previously prepared pit.
    Need to water
    After the transplant, the lilac must be watered. If there is no possibility to do this regularly, mulching will help - peat, humus, sawdust. There is nothing suitable? Hence, close the near-stall circle with a multiple layer of newspapers, cardboard, cotton wool. It is useful, after landing for a couple of days, to pull the crown down with a rope and cover with a wet cloth, so that the moisture from the leaves does not so quickly evaporate.
    How can I feed the lilac? She loves ... kebabs! Pour the ash remaining after frying into the trunk circle, then mulch with mowed grass. During the season, the plant can be so “pampered" 3-5 times.

    Do not believe those who claim that breaking off a blooming lilac is useful, they say, then it will be better to blossom next year. This you only disfigure the bush and increase the risk of the disease. If necessary, cut the 2 / 3 length of the flowering shoot for the bouquet. This causes the active development of the remaining branch and the formation of new ones. But the shaping and rejuvenating lilac pruning is best done in late autumn.

    A lilac sapling has been planted in the sun, but it is open to all winds, even to the north. Now I understand why it is growing so hard. He is three years old. Can I transplant it in the spring?

    She tried to cut the lilacs, read that she cut the cuttings during the mass flowering, and did so. Most of it took root, but in spring everyone was not viable. What did I do wrong? Maybe it was necessary to bring them into the house and leave it until spring in a warm place?

      You are very fortunate that the cuttings are ingrained, since the lilac is considered one of the most difficult rooted plants. Perhaps your plants still did not form roots, and they only remained green, this also happens, especially if you keep them at high humidity, for example under a jar. Cuttings of lilac in the middle lane of Russia not bad winter and without any shelter. But it is better to cover them with leaf litter or fir branches for more effective snow retention.
