The Seeds of perennial varieties can be planted directly in beds not only in late spring, but in mid-summer. In any case, in the year of planting this rudbeckia to bloom will not. The first buds on the bushes will bloom the following summer.

On the second or third year of growing perennial rudbeckia can already be propagated by dividing rhizomes. To perform this procedure is allowed in spring before growth or in autumn after flowering.

Where to plant

A Place for rudbeckia usually choose a sublime, Sunny. The fact that this plant is not too tolerates waterlogging and shading. The composition of the earth in the flower bed can be absolutely anything. But the best this decorative culture feels on moderate humus soils.

Next, the soil is moistened and laid over the surface of planting material. The seeds are then lightly sprinkled with soil, sprayed with water spray and covered with foil.

Next, you should divide rudbeckia into several fragments so that each left kidney regeneration.

Of Course, a bed for the planting of parts of the Bush should be prepared in advance: loosen the soil and add humus or well-decomposed compost. Under each piece of rudbeckia is a small hole. After planting the soil around them needs a little tightening.

Care: dressing

The impressive appearance — this is something especially appreciated by summer visitors rudbeckia. The photo on the page, high decorative qualities of this plant demonstrate amply. However, the rudbeckia has another important advantage. The plant is, in addition, yet very unpretentious.

rudbeckia cultivation

Many varieties of rudbeckia a good feel and even completely without any care. However, in order to get the most spectacular flowering the rudbeckia, of course, need to fertilize and water. Flower beds with newly planted trees should also from time to time to weed.

Occasional feeding —this is what requires first of all rudbeckia perennial. Care of plants in this group is including in the application of fertilizers in spring after the beginning of the growth of green mass, and in the summer — during budding. As feeding may be used simply manure. But it is better to buy from a retailer multicompound fertilizer for ornamental crops. Very good idea to mulch the flowerbed with rudbeckia dry horse manure or compost.

An Annual species to fertilize is usually not needed. But only when before planting the seeds or seedlings in the soil were made with manure or humus.

Water

Rudbeckia, planting and care in the open ground over which — procedures are quite simple, requires irrigation mainly only in the dry season. In the rainy summer the soil under the plant to moisturize not worth it. And even in a drought to water the rudbeckia should be not too liberally and frequently. Waterlogged this plant does not like. When overflow rudbeckia may even get sick from mildew.

How to do pruning

Perennial varieties of this ornamental crops is usually very much thickened. Seedlings of rudbeckia this group gives a huge amount. Therefore, planting should be periodically thinned. In this case, the beds will look much better and more attractive.

Unfortunately, even the perennial rudbeckia special longevity is no different. Bushes can die already in 3-5 year. Leave them to rot on a bed, of course, not worth it. All the more so to remove them is easy. On a vacant place, you can simply pour a few seeds. But in most cases this procedure is unnecessary. One of the features of rudbeckia is the ability to reproduce by self-seeding.

The Annual varieties are usually not cut. Fall dead plants just removed from the beds and burned or placed in a compost pile. The annuals be sure to cut or pinch off the withered flowers. Rudbeckia in this way will be faster “produce” a new Corolla, and in very large quantities.

Sometimes in the bushes of this ornamental crops attacked by spider mites and omnipresent. It is also possible to try to get rid of with a solution of dichlorvos or buy in store some special insecticide. Spraying is carried out in the morning or evening in dry weather.

Preparing for winter

Fairly high resistance to cold — then what is the difference between these beautiful unpretentious flowers. Rudbeckia special protection from frost is not needed. But in order for the next year flowerbed looked beautiful in late autumn the bushes of perennial species should be cut at the root. Some gardeners then cover the flower bed with a film and hay. But this procedure is optional.

Landscape design

One of the features of rudbeckia is that it is very effectively combined with almost any other ornamental plants. This culture blossoms from June to August. Since it grows most of the species of rudbeckia are very high, most often they are used as background plants, landing on the background lawn. Looks very nice in this culture and single crop. In this case, one big bed is place several varieties of rudbeckia with flowers in different shades of yellow.
