The climate of Siberia and the Urals cannot be called suitable for the cultivation of most perennial varietal plants. Severe winters with temperatures of -40 ° C, when the ground freezes to 2.2 m, can only withstand hardy Spartan perennials. Others, even those considered cold-resistant somewhere in the Moscow region, freeze out in Siberian areas. In extreme cases, they stop blooming due to cold damage flower buds... Therefore, when choosing perennial flowers for Siberia and the Urals, you need to focus not on hybrid "novelties", but on local, successfully cultivated plants. And there are not so few of them, and in terms of decorativeness, they sometimes are not inferior to newfangled varieties.
One of the first in harsh conditions, practically from under the snow, Siberian snowdrops sprout - lumbago Purple, blue, white or yellow pubescent bells are unpretentious, form very decorative curtains. They can develop on any soil, in company with other perennials. For example, with crocuses - perennial bulbous flowers, suitable for the conditions of Siberia and the Urals. They hibernate without shelter, look great in a group with other flowers, and by themselves, but only in mass plantings.
Many varieties of lumbago (sleep-grass) are listed in the Red Book, so it is undesirable to dig them up in the forest for resettlement to your site. Grow them with seeds!
And here is another local inhabitant - Siberian kandyk. This is a real weightlifter - with his bud he breaks through the layer of snow that has not yet melted in order to dissolve delicate lilac-colored bell flowers in the sun.
Siberian Kandyk grows best with little shade, in open sunny areas it quickly fades
A close relative of hyacinth, muscari also has a Nordic character. White, purple, blue inflorescences with many small bells are incredibly good in borders, massive "islets" on the lawn or alpine hills in the company with other perennials for the Urals and Siberia.
Scented muscari are maintenance-free. In the first year of the growing season, even fertilizers are not needed, there are enough nutrients contained in the bulbs
Shining stars the white flowers are painted by the anemone (anemone) - an indigenous inhabitant of the Siberian steppes. Her flowers do not last long, but they manage to please at the very moment when the summer riot has not yet come into its own.
Anemones grow rapidly, creating dense curtains. When they start crowding each other, they need to be seated.
An interesting video story was filmed specifically for the Ural and Siberian gardeners who are striving to make their site blooming in the spring:
Summer bloom of Siberian-Ural flowers
In cold areas, in summer flower beds, they find their place of honor bearded irises... For their beauty, some similarity with tropical epiphytes and frost resistance, these perennials for Siberia received a capacious popular name- "northern orchids". Most varieties bloom in early to mid-summer, there are also re-flowering ones among them. Thanks to different terms flowering, a flower bed of irises can remain decorative until frost.
Irises are one of the most beautiful and unpretentious perennial flowers.
Many lilies have excellent frost resistance. For example, a curly lily (saranka, martagon) with bizarre flowers, the petals of which are bent in the shape of an oriental turban. This is the so-called wild form of lilies, common in the taiga, meadows and forests of Siberia. Here she grows in her usual environment, so feel free to settle her on your site. There will be no problems with frost resistance, diseases and difficulties in care - guaranteed! In addition to the species of locusts, the bred varieties, the martagon-hybrids, are also popular.
For the unusual shape of flowers, the locust is popularly nicknamed "royal curls"
Due to its unpretentiousness, only the species lily of Pennsylvania (Daurian) can argue with the locust. This is another species of wild lilies found in meadows, fields, forest edges of Siberia and Of the Far East... The flowers are large, orange or red in color, appear on the plant from June to August.
Lily pennsylvanian is a plant of wet forest edges and meadows, so it must be watered regularly
Frost resistance and endurance are the main features of Asian hybrids and LA hybrids of lilies. Even after harsh snowless winters, their bulbs start to grow in spring and bloom remarkably. Moreover, thanks to bright flowers, these lilies are more decorative than most other garden flowers.
The owner of the flower nursery tells about the most resistant species and varieties of lilies that are suitable for growing in harsh conditions:
Hydrangeas cannot be called unpretentious, but some of them, with good shelter, can be cultivated even in Siberian areas. We are talking about panicle and treelike hydrangeas with luxurious caps of inflorescences. It is better to forget about large-flowered, petiolate, oakleaf varieties of hydrangeas right away - they will not withstand wintering in open ground and will freeze clean, not waiting for spring.
Panicle hydrangea creates a fluffy flower cloud in the garden
There are also frost-resistant varieties among roses. The most unpretentious varieties are considered to be park groups and floribunda. Climbing rose winters well in cold areas, of course, subject to the rules for autumn pruning and winter shelter. For more details about the features of drawing up a rose garden in parts of Siberia, see the video:
Large bushes with an armful of flowers on long stems form decorative bows. Flower balls of white, purple, lilac, lilac shades create bright accents in the garden. These plants are unpretentious, winter-hardy and, moreover, edible.
V last years gardeners fell in love with the decorative clematis vine. Its long and colorful bloom leaves no one indifferent! Small-flowered types of clematis are more suitable for the conditions of Siberia - they are more frost-resistant. For example, the princes showed themselves well - Alpine and Siberian clematis, especially varieties with blue flowers... Clematis Tangut (tangutika) is another contender for the role of liana for landscaping pergolas, fences, arbors.
Knyazhik - northern liana with abundant flowering
Frost-resistant flowers for short autumn
In Siberia and the Urals, snow may already fall in September. Therefore, the list of autumn perennials cultivated here is very short. The perennial aster is quite popular - a winter-hardy culture that can go blooming under the snow and not suffer at the same time. It blooms from July to frost.
Aster is a winter-hardy perennial suitable for northern regions. In the wild perennial aster often found in the forests of Siberia
For autumn flower garden some varieties are suitable for northern regions korean chrysanthemums blooming from July to September. Only small-flowered varieties have frost resistance, but they also do not have this property in order to winter in open ground. Chrysanthemum, even the most unpretentious, needs winter shelter.
There are no absolutely frost-resistant chrysanthemums. Therefore, in Siberia, even the most unpretentious of them need winter shelter.
How to shelter perennials in Siberia and the Urals?
Among the flowers of perennials used for areas of the Urals and Siberia, there are many relatively frost-resistant. That is, those that hibernate in the open field only with shelter. For example, these are roses, clematis, hydrangeas, chrysanthemums, etc.
Shelter works are usually carried out in 2 stages:
1. Preparing for shelter. Roses of park and floribund varieties, chrysanthemums and some other flowers are cut in front of the shelter. Roses - up to a hemp of 30-35 cm, chrysanthemums - up to 15-20 cm. This removes the leaves and all damaged shoots. Climbing roses, clematis are not cut off, but removed from the supports and lashes are laid on the ground. Hydrangea bushes are tied with twine. Faded inflorescences, old and diseased branches are removed from any plant prepared for winter.
2. Protection by covering material. To begin with, the root collar of the plant is covered with peat, dry foliage, sawdust, dry compost. Then the plant is covered. You can do this in the following ways:
- The bush is covered with spunbond (lutrasil, agrofibre), then a wire arched frame is installed over it. The wire is positioned so that 20-25 cm remain on the side and on top of the plant. Cover the frame with the same spanbond. The empty space inside the frame is filled with dry leaves, best of all with oak leaves - they are not subject to decay and have antiseptic properties.
- The plant is covered with spruce branches, then covered with dry foliage and covered with a cardboard box. Instead of a box, you can use plastic buckets, lutrasil, spunbond.
Winter frame shelter made of dry leaves and spunbond
If you are not sure about the frost resistance of the plant you have purchased, or weather forecasters predict a snowless and harsh winter, use a shelter. In the northern regions, it will help preserve the most valuable varieties and expand their habitat.
