Despite approach of frosts and cold weather, season of works at amateur gardeners proceeds. What main works should not forget to be carried out in November in garden and flower bed before arrival of winter?
The last month of fall needs to be begun with collecting the fallen-down foliage under fruit-trees and bushes. Dry leaves use for the shelter of plants for the winter, and crude for compost preparation. Also delete fruit drop from under pears, apple-trees and plums.
Further carry out whitewashing of trees for protection against wreckers and frost cracks. Warm roots not of winter-hardy plants by means of leaves or dry peat.
With approach of frosts cover roses, clematises, rhododendrons, treelike peonies and other flower bushes. In the middle of the month cut shanks of fruit-trees for winter inoculation and place them on storage by bunches in the basement or directly during snow.
Trees and bushes for protection against rodents tie with fir twigs. Still it is possible to use nonwoven ukryvny material.
In November repair garden stock in advance and put away it on storage till spring. If in garden there are a lot of holes of mice or voles, then about them display the poisoned baits.
Bulbous tubers of flowers (gladioluses, begonia) place on permanent storage in the fridge or any other place with temperature not higher than +8 degrees.
After loss of snow it is in addition filled on low-winter-hardy plants. Especially carefully powder the Alpine hill and saplings planted this year. Around adult fruit-trees and berry-pickers the snow is trampled down – it will prevent mice to approach tasty bark.
As for berry cultures, it is necessary to take care of their preparation for winter. These plants connect and if it is required, cover with material, dry leaves and so on. Under all berry and fruit crops pour mulch, for example compost, humus or peat.
Also this month it is possible to be engaged in reproduction of the plants. For example, the honeysuckle in November is made multiple copies the lignified shanks. For this purpose cut one-year branches up to 25 cm long and store them till spring in cellar or the basement, prikopanny in sand.
Bulbs of tulips, narcissus and hyacinths land on distillation. For this purpose use only healthy copies of the first selection. Also the flowers growing in the open ground cut off and cover for the winter.
Here it is obligatory to carry out such works on the garden site in November.
