Instruction
1. Tulips – the most popular spring flowers. Though the age of their blossoming is short, only several weeks, but variety of forms and quantity of coloring compensate all works on care for tulips and their short blossoming.
2. Bulbs of tulips can be bought in the fall and to store in the winter in cool, but not so damp room. It is possible to buy them in the spring and at once to land. But it is previously necessary to pave the way and bulbs to landing.
3. Irrespective of where all winter bulbs were stored – at you in the apartment or in shop – them it is necessary to examine, make sure in the spring of their healthy state, and then to put for day in the fridge. After that to prepare weak solution of potassium permanganate and to lower in it bulbs for half an hour.
4. Then bulbs of tulips need to be couched. It is possible to plant them directly in soil without couching, but experienced flower growers claim that the percent of sewing and probability of blossoming already in this season at preliminary prorashchivaniye increases in half.
5. For prorashchivaniye the box of 30 cm in depth is filled with the earth on 2/3 and in it at the minimum distance bulbs from each other land so that their upper part slightly was seen from the soil. This procedure can be begun in March. It is called prelanding distillation, and it is considered very effective.
6. In month after the beginning of distillation as soon as tulips have sprouted, they can be landed on the prepared place in garden. On bed dig over soil and add to it sand and humus. It is possible to plant tulips ranks or groups, on 6-7 bulbs in hole "floret". Distance between them – from 6 to 10 cm depending on the grade sizes. Depth of disembarkation depends on the size of bulbs. Strongly it is not necessary to bury bulbs. Small put at depth of 5 cm, large – up to 12 cm.
7. On bed the tulips land when the earth gets warm up to +10 °C at depth of 20 cm. In midland it occurs usually in April. It is very important not to hurry with disembarkation and not to carry out it when returnable frosts are possible. To overdo bulbs which have gone to growth in boxes, are not necessary too. The fact is that if they will release peduncles, it will be impossible to replace them.
