With coming summer season Many daches and owners of private houses attend the idea of \u200b\u200bcreating a reservoir on their homestead. It may not have only decorative properties, but also makes it possible to refresh him in hot days. Depending on the possibilities of the site and the material component of the reservoirs may be the most different sizes. Cooling, which blows from the fountain, a stream or waterfall so saves from the heat and gives strength and vigor. Very often such reservoirs are called water gardens, as they are necessarily surrounded various plants. It is very important when making your reservoir, choose determining deciduous and flowering plants.
In order for the pond on the site for a long time remaining healthy and beautiful and did not turn into a swamp, covered with thick thickets, it is necessary to carefully choose plants for it. They should grow both along the edges of the reservoir and in the water. This is also important because many summer cottages have quite a bit free from the garden beds. Probably, it will not be quite pleasant next to the water garden to see the planting of cabbage or cucumbers.
Standard rectangular pool or stone waterfall will not be completely appropriate in such cases. You can build, for example, raised with a reservoir with a place to relax or the pond with a small waterfall on one side and thick vegetation on the other. Modern technologies Allow to make a fountain geyser in the center of the water garden or a pond with a fluffy herbal lawn on the shore.
Large sizes
If the site allows you to build a water big SquareYou will need to pre-create a real project for this. It will take into account everything before the smallest details: materials, plant species, decorative components (for example, stone, figurines, backlight, seats for recreation, water pump, etc.). For such a reservoir, the maximum of creativity and fantasy will be required, because at such an area you can implement many interesting ideas. There is a roar where - these are the shores of the reservoir and the water surface itself.
Large reservoirs have a very important advantage over small ponds - because of the high depth, water does not bloom and remains clean for a long time. This allows you to grow a large amount of aquatic plants at different depths without fear for their full-fledged development.
On the edge of such a reservoir, it is possible to create a natural corner of coastal semi-stares and shrubs, evergreen representatives of the flora, and marsh plants perfectly fit in the water. Most often used Iris Swamp, Lotus, Snake Highlander, and from tall - reed, reed, Badan, Rogoz, Buzotnoe, Pontederia and others.
Miniature reservoirs
Unusual water oasis can be organized even on the smallest territory. For skillful hands, the area absolutely does not matter. Even a small pond with numerous plants will always give the coolness and delight the rumor of the splash of water. In miniature reservoirs, representatives of the fauna - frogs, tritons, dragonfly and water meters are very fast.
Plants for such a water garden need to be chosen given how quickly they grow and how magnificently grow. It is very important that the pond remains as long as possible by the reservoir, and did not become a small swamp. Experienced craftsmen recommend planting more plants along the edge of the reservoir and at least on its water surface.
Feel positively on such ponds and please the eyes of others aqueous hyacinth, Cuccushkin Color, Swampless, Iris dwarf species, as well as higher plants - bamboo, and various decorative cereals. In order for water plants during growth, it is possible to cut forward, it is more convenient to put them in small floral containers. In winter, such containers with plants can be transferred to home conditions.
So that the space of the pond does not overgrown with plants in a matter of days, you should not land near the reservoir of the Rogoz and the reed, it is they who have the ability of rapid growth.
When building a water branch in the form of a circle, it will be good in the center of the classic fountain. But for square or rectangular water gardens, more rigorous decor will be required. Such reservoirs are often surrounded by stone walls of a small height. Plants must fit this style and emphasize its elegance. It can be ivy, brushes with decorative haircut and sussak umbrella, which will great look like a framing of a pond. But for the decoration of the water surface, lotuses and pitches are ideal. The coast of such a reservoir can be decorated with letters with roses or other curly plants.
Registration of waterfalls and streams
Calm streams in the form of a leisurely water flow can be organized with their own hands without any experience. The channel of this stream will be narrow and built of large stones or river pebbles. Since the area of \u200b\u200bthe water surface is not wide, then as aquatic plants it will be enough to plant algae, but on the coast of such a reservoir it is desirable to place dwarf willow or cedars, coniferous semi-stabiliques, diccients different shadesas well as irises.
"Mountain" waterfall is much easier to create if the land selected for it is located on the slope. For the channel, you need to select medium-sized stones and preferably one breed. Of these, steps for water flow will be formed. So that the shores of the waterfall looked festively and raised the mood, you need to choose for landing flowering species Plants: Irises, Bolotnaya Kaluzhnitsa, Mint. It will be good to feel at such a pond water reservoir and sussak umbrella. As aquatic plants, forget-meal marsh, dwarfs dwarfs.
Registration of spring and fountains
The depth of these reservoirs is usually small, so plants need to choose multi-level and no more than three instances. Plants need to be planted only along the edges of the water surface or water. From the high representatives of the flora here, the Soyk, Iris and Rolls will look. In the immediate vicinity of water you can position a sabelnik or rogo. But on the water surface, white, pink or red nymphy, as well as water salad, perfectly fit. Plant to the spring is not worth it.
When choosing plants for landing in an independently built pond, it is very important to take into account on which depth you need to land. If the plant is inappropriate, the plant does not fit in a new place or will have an unhealthy look. Specifically, each plant has its own preferences on this issue and they must be taken into account. Some of them can grow only on shallow water, others - at great depth, and the third - only near the water surface. Conditionally all homemade reservoirs in depth consist of five main parts.
Deepye
The deep-sea zone is the depth of 40 centimeters and more. In this part of the reservoir, plants, whose leaves and flowers are preferred to be on the surface of the water, and the stalks and the root part are in the water. If the depth of the pond is near the meter, then the plants are able to feel normally even in winter. At such a depth, they do not freeze.
The most suitable for a deepwater zone for such plants: pita, lotuses, water stars, shrovers, aqueous buttercup, rogol, Turcha and Chile.
Shallow water
The shallow zone is the depth of 10 to 40 centimeters. For such a pond is necessary decorative plants Dwarf rocks or low-spirited species that only the root part should be constantly in the water and at the same time all the plant will be perfect and fully developed and grow. Usually, the shallow water is taken to plant flowering plants with medium height stems and with a decorative sheet.
Most suitable plants: Iris marsh, graonist, Air of cereal or swamp, tail, Elodea, shock.
Bolt zone
In such a zone, height from the edge of the water to the bottom is no more than 10 centimeters. The water level in such sites is very often changing in one, then in the other direction due to prolonged and abundant precipitation. Such changes are stress for many plants, so only the most adapted types and varieties will be able to grow at these sites.
Plants capable of comfortably feeling in this area: Mokhokha, Rogoz, Sash, Mannik, Range, White, Derbennik, Watch, Chastukha, Zaurus.
Coastal areas that are in close proximity to water, with a constant overall of the soil resemble a wet lawn. Very often, water from the reservoir fills the surface of the nearby soil. This is due to weather conditions or excessive precipitation.
The most suitable plants for this zone are: Badan, tea meadow, irises, primroses, tradescania, swimsuit, rye, buznotnik, Volzhanka, Verbeyn, Dawn, Host.
Coastal zone
This area of \u200b\u200bthe area for each owner of the country area can be different depending on the total land area. The fact that the reservoir is very close, has only a positive impact on the development and growth of coastal plants. In such sites, you can grow any plants intended for the garden and a flower garden. The soil is always moderately wet and irrigated is extremely rare.
All transition from the reservoir to garden plot You can plant appropriate plant species: rhododendons, viburnum shrubs and conifers, decorative varieties Apple trees, cereal plants, ferns, geranium.
The purity of the reservoir and the correct care behind it will save and prove the beauty of plants, as well as many years will be able to please the cool and freshness.
Plants for the reservoir (video)
The beginning of June is a great time for planting aquatic plants, and therefore it's time to talk about which of them it is better to choose to design a reservoir so that it corresponds to the style of your cottage.
Hybrid Lug (Nymphaea)
No other plant can be compared with the beauty of the nymph or - one of the most beautiful aquatic plants. These are white wilderness of natural water bodies, and varietal nymphs with large, diameter of 15-20 cm flowers of a wide variety of colors: white, pink, yellow, raspberry. Flower in June-September.The pitchers appeared on sale a few years ago, but still on the beauty of aquatic plants are not inferior to anyone's palm of championship. The pitches are attached to the water tightness, nostalgic fler and fit perfectly into the design of cottages both in a romantic style and in the style of modern.
Features of cultivation
It is recommended for the deepwater zone of the reservoir, when landing large plants at a depth of 50 cm and more, small - from 20 cm, preferably in a thick layer of organic yel or on fertile heavy clay soil.In antiquity, the flowers of the Blue, called the Egyptian blue rose, were decorated with rules, religious structures and dwellings in the country of Pharaohs. IN Ancient Greece The flower of the pita was a symbol of beauty and eloquence. There is a legend of the nymphs, which turned into a white water lily flower and lured the travelers to the bottom.
The Slavs, the waterway ended mystical and therapeutic force. She was called the ease and believed that she was able to overcome all the evil and ailment. In addition, she helped travelers, softened the hearts of cruel beauties, endowed talents.
You can still read in the article on the pit of a hybrid on the site.
AIR ordinary, or marsh (acorus calamus)
AIR forms spectacular groups rising high above the water of the stems and the leaves of the sword-shaped with a spicy, pleasant smell. The strict linearity of the plant is harmoniously fitted both in the regular style of the cottages and in its landscape image. Supports and creates a green or greenish-white (form 'variegatus') gamut.
Features of cultivation
AIR is planted with immersion in water to a depth of 0.3-0.5 m or landing in a wetlaby zone, preferably on the clay, but it is possible on the soup soil, permissible - in containers (for the winter, leaves are cut, leaving 10 cm above the water surface ). In one place grows for a long time. With intensive growth, other types of plants are able to displaced; Requires control. The distance between plants is 50-70 cm.AIR, like the water lily, is also enveloped by legends and legends. It is believed that he was brought from the south during the times of the Mongol-Tatar invasion. It is the Eastern warriors that threw it in the reservoirs, and if the plants got out, then the water was considered clean and suitable for drinking.
Iris Airovoid, or Bolotnaya (Iris Pseudacorus)
Very spectacular aqueous plant from the family of iris or clocks, which form a quick group of juicy greens. During the flowering period brings its solar joyful chords, proclaiming the celebration of life. It grows up to 90 cm high, on one rhizome - 12-15 bright yellow flowers blooming at the end of May - July. Movie-shaped leaves up to 120 cm long decorative throughout the summer.

Features of cultivation
Sit down in shallow water. Need control over the spread of rhizomes. It is better to plant into the container and remove the shoots growing up annually. At the end of the summer, all leaves are cut to not block the coast and the bottom of the reservoir.Belling, or Calla Swamp (Calla Palustris)
Beautiful exotic water plant from the family of aroid, especially spectacular during flowering. Natural habitats - shallow water on the shores of overgrown ponds. Tolst meaty rhizome grows quickly, the plant in one summer can completely close the square in several square meters.Beautiful her heart-shaped dark green shiny leaves. White bedspread inflorescences appear in May-June. By the end of the summer, bright red fruits are formed. Suitable for reservoirs cottage in the style of modern. Flowers are used in the cut, they look very beautiful and majestically in bouquets, symbolizing freshness and purity.

Features of cultivation
The depth of planting calila is 10-15 cm. Spank the cuts of the root. For the winter leaves cut off. It is better to plant Calla into a container, which for the winter is entered into the basement and stored before the onset of sustainable spring warm weather.In the southern regions in the ponds, the relative of the Calla Bolotnaya - Calla Ethiopian or Zantenshy Ethiopian ( Zantedeschia Aethiopica.). Under the condition of digging by tubers in autumn (they are stored at a temperature of +10 ... + 15 ° C) and not too fast (after the last spring frosts) landing in the spring, this plant can be grown even in water bodies middle strip Russia.
On the Black Sea coast Krasnodar Territory and the southern coast of Crimea can be left grunding to winter in open soil Near the water in secluded villages, protected from cold northern winds, covering it with leaves. Starting from May, Calla Ethiopian blooms abundantly for a long time.
Rogoz (Typha)
All Rogozes are beautiful background perennial plants. It is recommended to create spectacular thickets in large water bodies, and in small groups they are planted with few groups or singly. Rogozes in the water bodies of the landscaped style look harmoniously. Their dense, dark brown inflorescences with a velvety surface bloom in June-August.
Features of cultivation
The minimum depth of plants in the reservoir is 7-12 cm. Control is required; It is better to plant in the container. This should remove extra rhizomes to prevent growth.Surely many of you know the Rogoz called "Reeds". However, a real reed is a completely different plant from the family family, with wide metels at the ends of long stems. You will read about him below. Why it happened - it is not known for it.
Rocket Lacks (scirpus lacustris)
The same "noisy reeds". This large plant from the family family with loose texture is better to decorate rather large reservoirs by mass groups. When landscaping small water bodies can be used in small groups planted in containers to limit the area of \u200b\u200bfood and, therefore, plant growth. A long stem grows up to 1-2 m high, and the leaves at the reeds are barely noticeable, narrow, small, located at the inflorescence - belties.

Features of cultivation
It is better to plant in the containers in the shallow water zone at a depth of 7-12 cm. Winter in reservoirs.Reeds can not only decorate the reservoirs, he is in food. Its rhizomes are edible - fresh, baked, crushed and boiled, from dried roots can be made of flour. You can also eat the root part of the stem of young plants, juicy and sweet taste. People in extreme conditions are not threatened with hunger, when there is a reed.
Cane Ordinary (Phragmites Communis, Syn. P. Australis)
The reed belongs to the family of mattlikov (so also the reed, and the Rogoz, and the reeds belonging to different families should not be confused). The reed is more suitable for the design of large reservoirs at the dachas of the landscape style. It is decorative during the whole growth, and even dry plants in a frozen pond, covered with snow, fascinate with their beauty. Reduces water contamination by organic substances (oxygenator).
Cane ordinary. Photos from Econet.ru
The cane is long, reprehension, sizo-green stem-solomins up to 3-4 m. Flowers in brown-violet spikelets - pancakes are small, unbroken, blooming from July to autumn. In August-September, they turn into attracting attention to silver-browned fluffy sultans. there is decorative variety cane ' Variegata.'- up to 1 m high, leaves with golden yellow, later white border.
Features of cultivation
You can plant to a depth of up to 1.5 m, a volatile form ' Variegata.'- 7-12 cm or in the coastal wet zone. Obligatory control over the distribution, because The plant is a major, powerful, generated thickets. Winter in the open soil.Latin reed name - phragmites - comes from greek words phragma.What means winter, fence. And this is not by chance, since from ancient times it was used to cover the roofs, the devices of fences, weaving baskets.
Susak Umbrella (Butomus Umbellatus)
Very elegant plant for designing water bodies, able to emphasize both the strict regular style of the composition with its sword-shaped, long leaves, and naturally fit into the company of water plants Pond in landscape style. The height of the skes in Sousak is 40-10 cm, the flowers are pink-white, collected in umbrellas, bloom in June-July.

Features of cultivation
You can land on shallow water with a depth of 15-30 cm. The distance between the plants is 40-50 cm.
And if some green pets live in your reservoir, tell us about them!
April 26, 2011"In a person, everything should be fine ..."! Do you remember Chekhov? But this rule is valid not only for people, but also, for example, for giving or garden. Here, too, every corner must be perfect. This time, we will give a country pond to the ideal.
We have already done a reservoir, we launched fish in it, and now opens a water green page. We devote it plants for the pond.
You may be surprised, but we start with the shore. If competently make the decor next to the pond, then the reservoir itself will become for you and your guests an unusual place and advantageously will emphasize the style and design of the entire site.
If the house and the whole garden are made in modern, high-tech trends, then the classic pool with palm trees in the pot on the shore will look at the house. But such a "resort" option is badly combined with fish, and the underwater flora will not be at the place.
Japanese site design supports gazebo and beautiful blooming coastal plants. For such a composition, Iris will fit well Siberian (Iris Sibirica), three-lines watch (Menyanthes TRIFOLIATA) or Small Lily (Hemerocallis Minor Miller). And not at all to the Japanese court of sprawling wide plants. They give the whole shore dyed view.
But if the house on your site is massive and wooden, then here the wildness of the coastal zone will have to be by the way. Yes, and the whole pond can be turned into a sort of forest lake with reeds, wooden bridge and wooden sculptures on the shore.
But our observations still show that the above designs of the owners of country sites or country houses Rarely boasts. In most cases, the garden is a well-kept place where the play area with a lawn, and flowerbeds with alpine slides and a corner with a reservoir are at the same time. It is for such sites most of our tips.
The first rule of landscape designers, which are engaged in the design of water bodies - not to be carried away! This concerns and planting plants in the coastal zone and in the reservoir itself.
If you move to the destruction of the coast, then the next year your pond will lose in the scorched jungle. So come back to slogans and rules: better less, yes better!
One of the most winning options for the design of the shore is molding willow, preferably grafted on a high stack. Under its spreading branches, a fern and other shadowed plants that will create an excellent composition will be well taken. You can replace the IVI and on other perennial largest largets, such as spruce, mountain pine, barbaris, juniper or thuja.
Blooming mixborls look with coniferous rocks. But you need to take into account that a big tree will grow up with the years root systemwhich can damage the waterproofing of the pond and deliver a lot of problems. Therefore, if you still decided to decorate with a water-gauge, place it away from the water. And save the reservoir, and you will not close it from the sun. This, by the way, is also very important: regardless of the nature of the coastal landings, they should not completely close the pond mirror. Small plot The shadows above the water are even welcome - this allows water to not overheat, but completely immerses the pond in the shadow very harmful to all its inhabitants.
Now that with the coastal decor they figured out, you can go to water. First of all, we divide all plants into two large groups - floating and deep-sea. The latter need to plant in the ground or special baskets. But the floating all this is not required. They exist on the surface of the pond and actively multiply independently. For a short time, such plants can close all the reservoir mirror, so you will have to work with a saccmier and cut forward. It is impossible to allow floating to occupy more than half of the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe reservoir.
Most. famous representative This species is a row, familiar to everyone in rustic ponds and swamps. Now more and more often on garden water bodies can be seen. eichornia Tolstocheries (Eichhornia Crassipes), Pistius Telorusovoid (Pistia Stratiotes), Azolla Filiculoides (Azolla Filiculoides) And other plants. Garden centers can now present several dozen species and varieties for a dacha pond, but we again remind you - do not get carried away! All plants need a place and light for normal growth, so you will still have to choose.
The same applies to deep-water plants. Their assortment is the richest, but to plant everything at once, you will need not a garden pond, and something more similar to the size of Lake Baikal. We will tell the most popular in water design plants a little later, and now let's stop at general rules landing deep-water.
Better time to populate the pond - from May to August. In individual climatic zones Or in particularly successful years this process can be stretched before September. The main thing is that the water temperature is high enough.
Before you do directly disembarking plants, you need to prepare water. Nothing special will not have to do with her, simply, if the pond is new, and you filled it for the first time, give water to settle about the week. During this time, it warms up, and it will take harmful volatile impurities.
When the water is ready, you can act. In strict accordance with the plan! If there is no plan, you will have to make it. It is this measure that will help you not overdo it, clearly understand where and what will grow, and how it will all look in a couple of years. With such a long-term program, you save the reservoir carefully and do not allow it to leave. By the way, here is one of the main conditions of the plan - per 1 sq.m. The pond should have no more than 2 plants.
FROM ready plan In your hands, come directly to the landing. And then again you need to make a choice: plant plants right into the soil or prefer the container landing. To choose it easier, we will tell about each way.
When falling into the ground to the bottom of the pond, the soil substrate pour. It consists of peat or or or land, coarse sand and a rift cowboat. It is necessary to pour this mixture with a thickness of 5-8 cm. To save, you can pour a fertile soil only in plants disembarkation. For example, in a film pond for this can be deepened in advance and do not cover useful layer All reservoir bottom.
When landing, it will not work dry. You will have to carefully stand on the bottom of the pond and gently separately plant each plant into the substrate. The order here determines the growth - you need to start with the highest. The latter usually put the pita. Then the plants are mulched by white, sainted sand. Its layer should be no thinner 2 cm. The sand will interfere with the soil leash, and serve as a "pillow" for the second mulching layer of gravel.
The second option is planting plants in the basket. To be honest, we like this way more. It allows you to periodically update the underwater composition of a simple replacement for one basket on another, and with wintering the question is solved easier - together with the container, the plant gets out of the pond and carry a warm basement. The main thing is not to give land in baskets to disperse.
To fill baskets, use ordinary garden land, without the addition of the above-described substrate. So that the soil is not flushed, the capacity from the inside is lined with burlap. Before planting a plant, it cuts long roots and old leaves. After planting the soil in the basket, they are compacted so that it does not reach the edge of the basket for about 4 cm. The remaining place falls asleep by gravel. He also protects the Earth from the washing, and the roots of the plants from too curious fish that love to dig in the soil and eat plant delicacy. Plus to all gravel as ballast keeps the basket in a vertical position under water.
After planting the plant, the basket is lowered to the bottom. To do this, you will need an assistant. You will take the basket on both sides and gently lower it on the bottom. By the way, so that the basket is not stuck in the eye, it is possible to cover it in the ripple of large stones.
What we have not yet told you about the "fresh air". All the inhabitants of the pond (and plants, and fish) need oxygen, and it is not always possible to get plenty of ambient. Therefore, oxyerators must be planted in the pond. They will prevent water pollution, and serve food for fish. The hydraulic agent plants include a water asterisk (Callitriche Hermaphroditica), bolotnaya Turcha (Hottonia Palustris), Ugut Colosbee (Myriophyllum Spicatum) or Rogoltnik Dark Green (Ceratophyllum DeMersum). Gardeners advise the use of several types of hydroxy agents in one reservoir. They are planted in baskets with clay soil And also fall asleep on top of gravel. The most successful time for landing - mid-June.
Well, now, as promised, we will tell you more about the most popular and pretty plants for decorating ponds. And let's start with representatives of the floating family.
As we said, the most famous plant From this company is a rod. But it is still not to stop separately on it - it is too good, she is familiar with all the inhabitants of our country. The only thing that warns - the row is monstrously multiplied, and gardeners are quite well deemed to consider it a water weed. Therefore, if you have such an opportunity (and it is probably there is), do not plant a row in country pond. She still comes from somewhere, for example, birds will be listed.
Our story will continue eukhorenia Tolstonozhnaya, or Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia Crassipes Solms).
She has brilliant, dark green leaves with thickened stiffs. Flowers are similar to the orchids of blue, pale-lilac or yellow colorThey grow up over water up to 30 cm. Eukhoreni blooms in August, but the plant is a thermal-loving and cool summer can not at all please the owners with flowers. Due to love for warmth, there are problems with wintering. Before the first frosts, the plant must be taken to the house otherwise it will just perish. Aquarium with illumination and water 15-22 ° C is well suited for wintering indoors. The best time for the landing of Eukhorean - June month.
The next floating hero of our story watercraft (Hydrocharis). Its leaves are similar to the pita, only several times less: rounded, heart-cut-cut from the base. The roots with air cavities are departed from the short stem. It is thanks to them that waters floats. He has white flowers with yellow pestles and stamens. Punish quickly, but they are replaced throughout the summer. Over the water, they stand out for 3-5 cm. Waterproof waterproofs in the pond. In the fall, he dies away all the leaves, and the kidneys fall on the bottom, then, at the beginning of the summer rise, and the new plant appears. The special effect of the water collapse is well cleaning the water and does not give to grow algae.
We will tell about the third swimmer - this is Azolla (Azolla), a small fern from the tropical reservoirs of America. You can call two types of it azolla Caroliniana (Azolla Caroliniana) and Azolla Filiculoides.
The first representative is very small, about 1 cm wide, a fern with small pale green leaves, which are blushing by autumn. It grows very quickly, so it is worth growing it only in small water bodies, where it can be broken periodically. The second subspecies is almost 10 times more than 10 times, and he becomes red-brown from him from the green.
Now let's talk about deep-water plants and the first on our list is worth aPONOGETON (APONOGETON). This gene includes almost 25 species that live in Africa, Asia and Australia. The leaves at the aponoghethon are oblong with long cutters, flowers pink, yellow or white. It is necessary to plant this plant in well-lit reservoirs into a container to a depth of 5-50 cm at a rather high water temperature, about 20 ° C. For the winter, the tuning tubers are cleaned in a box with raw sand and store in the warm cellar. You can, of course, leave it to winter and in the pond, but for this, the reservoir should be deep enough and not to freeze to the bottom.
CONTINUES A number of deep decors Cubia (Nuphar). This is a distant relative of the pita, however, not so pretty. The leaves of the leaves in a cube of different lengths and depends on the depth of the pond - the deeper, the longer. Flowers are small and sit on thick blooms.
The plant prefers pure reservoirs, preferably well-lit and warm, and as for the soil, the Kubashka needs peat, humus and clay. Wintering plant depending on the type. Some rhizomes can safely transfer frosts at the bottom of the non-freezing reservoir and in the spring again to germinate with young shoots; And the blind species will have to be carried in a home aquarium with cool water.
And finally, Queen Ponds is a waterway, she is nymphaea (Nymphaea). It grows from the Equator to Scandinavia and this gene has more than three dozen species. All of them are divided into two large groups - winter-hardy and tropical. The last very capricious and need for their growth average temperature 25 ° С. Therefore, grow them really only in Orangery. And here winter-hardy species Enjoy even for the Siberian climate. We will not describe the pitches: first, everyone saw them, and secondly, the species of this flower are quite a lot and you can not write about them, but to write entire books.
What we will tell about is about the features of landing, leaving and wintering.
You can plant nymphs from May to September in standing, well-lit reservoirs. Moreover, standing completely, even the presence of a fountain in the pond is a negative factor. In addition to the light, the water lily also loves the space. Each run is required from 0.5 to 4 sq. M of the water surface.
It is possible to plant nimifia and directly into the soil (if its thickness is about 30 cm), and in the container. The depth of planting depends on the variety: a dwarf enough and 15 cm, and for the largest 1 meter needed. But most water lishes prefer a depth of 30-60 cm.
