Flower growers with experience recommend watering plants infrequently, but with high quality. It is necessary that as a result of irrigation, water reaches the root system. If you water the flowers superficially, their roots remain dry, which will negatively affect the growth and general condition of the plants. It should always be remembered that plants that receive an insufficient amount water, lose their flowers. Their leaves are colored yellow, curl up and eventually fall off. If there is too much moisture, the growth and development of plants slows down, frequent fungal diseases.

Such annual plants like lobelia, nasturtium, calendula and sweet pea, especially sensitive to watering. 2-year-old and perennial plants are also demanding on the watering process: forget-me-nots, hosta, daisies, lily of the valley, aquilegia, daylily, dahlia, violets, clematis, delphinium and gladiolus. Scabiosa, escholcia, alyssum, cornflowers, ageratum, zinnia, verbena, marigolds are not so whimsical for watering. Drought-resistant species include gaillardia, mallow and gypsophila.

Water the flowers carefully. The jet of water should be diffused, in no case should it be directed directly to the roots of the plant. "Outside" watering can lead to sunburn leaves, so flowers are best watered in the evening or early morning. If water gets on the buds of flowers such as lupins, cornflowers and phloxes, they will lose their inherent decorativeness and beauty.

When to water the flowers

It is important to determine the time of watering plants throughout the day. You need to start from when during the day the plants in your garden receive the most sunlight. If the flowers get more light and heat in its first half, then water garden plants start in the evening - by the end of the day the flower garden will cool down a bit. In the event that your flower bed is intensively lit only in the evening hours, water it in the morning. If it is cloudy outside, start watering at any time convenient for you.

Flowers that have not received moisture for a long time, start watering sparingly. Water should flow to their root systems gradually, over 2-3 days. It is especially important to take this into account when watering drought-resistant plants, abundant watering can threaten them with stress or even death. Remove dry and yellow leaves from overdried plants, loosen the ground, also these plants need to be treated with a growth stimulator.

And if it's filled...

Did the plants get too much moisture? Be sure to find out to what extent it hurt the flowers and whether it hurt at all. Sometimes, to correct the situation, you just need to not water them for several days. However, this method does not always save the situation. If the overfilled flower began to lose its decorative effect, fungal diseases appeared, dig it out, remove the affected roots. After that it would be nice to process root system any fungicide. Also cut off that aerial part of the flower that has suffered, transplant the flower into new ground. It is also advisable to treat it with a growth stimulator and leave until fresh leaves appear.

  • location of dominant and complementary plants;
  • the distance between them;

Pictured below the simplest flower bed for beginner gardeners, where blue delphinium (1) and red phlox paniculata (2) act as dominant undersized plants.

Shaded flower garden plan

Every happy owner, even a small personal plot seeks to organize in front of the windows blooming flower bed. But in order for the flower garden to please the eye, and not bring multiple experiences, it is very important to adhere to the basic rules of agricultural technology required by each culture. It is equally important to properly organize the watering of flowers in your garden.

When to Water

Of course, the flower plot needs to be watered as needed: there is no need to carry water to the flower bed every day if the plants have enough natural moisture. But in cases where garden flower bed obviously fades, without additional watering is indispensable.

It is best to carry it out in the morning or evening hours, when the sun's rays are not yet as intense as closer to noon. Everyone knows that moisture that gets on the leaves and stems in the sun often leads to plant burns and loss of viability.

Video “Growing”

From the video you will learn how to grow flowers in your garden.

What to water

dropping off flower crops, try to form a composition in such a way as to take into account the need of each of them for moisture, because each flower requires its own watering regimen.

So, crocuses and daffodils do not need frequent moisture, they actively use moisture from the soil cover, so you can water them no more than once every few days. But lilies of the valley, gladioli and irises, on the contrary, prefer a sufficient amount of moisture and require regular, but not too plentiful watering. Dahlias are even more capricious - the soil around them is abundantly moistened for the first 7 days after planting, and then they simply maintain an optimal level of moisture.

The most unpretentious are such annual crops as marigolds, alyssum or cornflowers - they easily survive short dry periods, needing only moderate watering.

How often

The regularity of watering will depend not only on the variety of the selected plant, but also on its age: as already mentioned, there are crops with complex requirements. For example, peony bush needs active, frequent and daily watering during the time period from May to August, then the amount of water is significantly reduced.

As a rule, for most garden flowers, it is enough to replenish moisture once every 2-3 days. Exceptions are freshly planted flowers, as well as crops with a special growing regime.

Be that as it may, the features of watering and caring for each flower can be clarified on the package of seeds or in the nearest specialized store.

Watering in the heat

Everyone knows that watering any plants in the midst of the midday heat is not recommended. With the hot summer days coming, try to spend some time watering early in the morning or in the evening hours at sunset. With the advent of especially hot periods, you can water the flower garden twice a day - in the morning and in the evening.

Features of automatic watering

Automatic watering is definitely a real boon for gardeners. Of course, for big garden a powerful integrated irrigation system, with a timer, pump and filter, would be ideal. However, there is not always an opportunity and an objective need for such an expensive purchase, so you can get by with more mundane options. For example, if you buy several affordable and bright watering cans, fill them with water and install them in a flower garden, you can forget about the need to carry water for a few days. And you can buy a compact ready-made automatic irrigation system, or even build something similar yourself from improvised means. The main advantage that automation of the process of soil moistening gives us is that moisture enters the ground in a droplet manner, is evenly distributed over the earthen coma, respectively, the probability of root rotting is practically excluded.

The flower beds planted in front of the house are the face of the owner. That is why their design must be approached responsibly. For a flower garden, you can choose various forms and plants, which makes it possible to let go of fantasy.
