Jasmine planting and care in the open field in the fall. Everything you need to know about spring jasmine planting

We tell the rules for planting and caring for mock orange in open field. We describe in detail when and how best to plant garden jasmine.

We are considering caring for a plant in the garden: watering, fertilizing, pruning, flowering, preparing for winter, as well as diseases and pests.

Mock orange belongs to the Hortensia family, and jasmine belongs to the Olive family. At the same time, the shrubs are quite similar to each other, especially sweet and strong aroma, which causes confusion.

In Russia and the CIS countries, mock orange is often called garden jasmine, but real jasmine is a heat-loving plant (subtropical zone) and freezes out in a harsh climate. We successfully grow some of its species at home or in greenhouses (Indian, sambac, etc.).

Our outdoor planting guidelines and tips for outdoor care are for mock orange, or popularly known as "garden jasmine".

• These names are used in the article as synonyms, since under these names one and the same plant is hidden.

AT Russian gardens most often grown are coronal (ordinary) mock orange, virginal, hybrid winter-hardy varieties of mock orange Lemoine and the selection of Vekhov Nikolai Kuzmich.

Chubushnik: planting in open ground

For excellent plant development and flowering important role plays the landing site, soil and soil mixture, planting distance and its depth.

This is a kind of foundation that provides comfortable conditions for growing mock orange in open ground for the next 25-35 years.

Landing place

The plant is best suited for a quiet place that should be well lit, especially in the first half of the day, but light partial shade is also allowed at noon. It is best to plant mock orange on the south, southeast and southwest sides.

Garden jasmine is able to grow in the shade, but in this case flowering will be much weaker, it will stretch out and take on a less beautiful appearance.

Do not plant shrubs in places where rain or melt water, as well as where groundwater occurs closer than 150 cm from the surface of the earth.

Soil and acidity

Mock orange loves fertile land with high air and moisture permeability. He is well suited rich in humus, light to medium clay soils. At the same time, garden jasmine is able to grow in poor soil, but then the development and flowering of the bush will be weaker.

Heavy clay soils are not suitable, in this case more powerful drainage and a “lighter” soil mixture are needed. On sandy soils, on the contrary, you can do without drainage, and it is better to replace part of the sand with garden soil.

The optimal level of soil acidity for mock orange is pH 6.5-7.5 (close to neutral).

soil mixture

Substrate options for garden jasmine.

1. Leaf land, humus, turf (garden) land, peat in equal parts - a universal option.
2. Turf (garden) soil, humus (compost) and sand - 3:2:1. Good for clay soils and black soil.
3. Humus, black soil - 1: 1. Preferred option for sandy soils.

• It is advisable to add one glass of wood ash or two tablespoons of superphosphate to any soil substrate.

landing distance

Large shrubs and trees - 2.5-3 m. When group planting mock orange, the distance depends on its type, about 80-140 cm. If you want to make a hedge of garden jasmine then - 60-80 cm, the place should be well lit.

planting depth

When planting, the root neck of the seedling should be located approximately at ground level. The maximum depth is 2-3 cm, otherwise the risk of rot development is high.

How to plant garden jasmine? Instruction

1. Dig a planting hole: depth and width - 50-60 cm. At the bottom of the hole, make a 10-15 cm drainage layer of crushed stone, gravel or sand.
2. Pour in some soil mixture. Position the seedling in the center of the hole so that the base of the bush is approximately at ground level.
3. Gradually fill the planting hole with soil mixture and compact it so that there are no voids.
4. Trim all shoots to about 30% of their length (a couple of buds to a strong bud). Water the seedling trunk circle 10-15 liters of water. Sprinkle a 3-4 cm layer of peat, bark or sawdust on top to keep the root ball moist longer.

Rules and Tips

• Plant mock orange in cloudy weather or in the evening so that it takes root better.
• It is advisable to dig a planting hole and fill it with a soil mixture 3-4 weeks before planting.
• If the seedling has damaged roots, then remove them and treat the cut with charcoal powder.

In the spring, before flowering, it is advisable to spray the shrub with warm and soft water. For young plants, it is useful to add growth stimulants to the water ("Zircon", "Epin Extra" and others).

After the first watering in the spring, mulch the near-stem circle with a 3-4 cm layer of peat to retain moisture in the soil.

Soil loosening

During spring - summer, it is necessary to loosen the ground 4-6 cm deep 2-4 times. Also, remove weeds in a timely manner - they take away macro- and microelements from mock orange.

Top dressing and fertilizers

The first two years after planting, the mock orange does not need to be fed. mineral fertilizers. Additional nutrients garden jasmine needs for abundant and lush flowering.

1. In early April (before the leaves bloom), dissolve 15 g of urea (urea), 15 g of potassium sulfate and 30 g of superphosphate in 10 liters of water and water the bush. Or water the plant with mullein infusion - 1:10.
2. After 3-4 weeks (beginning - mid-May), repeat top dressing.
3. Immediately after flowering, sprinkle 20-25 g of superphosphate (1 tablespoon) and 10-15 g of potassium sulfate per 1 m2 on the surface of the earth.

2nd option

1. Before flowering (end of April - beginning of May), sprinkle two tablespoons of nitrophoska and a glass of wood ash on the surface.
2. During flowering and immediately after it, pour with a solution: for 10 liters of water, 20-25 grams of superphosphate (1 tablespoon) and 10-15 grams of potassium.

Adviсe

Instead of mineral fertilizers during and after flowering, you can use wood ash. To do this, fill a glass of ash with 10 liters of water and insist for two days, and then pour the shrub into the trunk circle.

Why is the mock orange not blooming? What to do?

Jasmine garden may not bloom in some situations. The most common causes are: lack of light (grows in the shade), lack of moisture, or nutrients(watering, top dressing), unsuccessful wintering (freezing of annual shoots), excessive pruning in spring or excessively deep planting.

Perhaps the mock orange does not bloom due to age, especially if you grew it from seeds (7-8th year) or from cuttings (4-5th year).

Proper pruning of mock orange: in spring, after flowering, in autumn

Garden jasmine needs annual pruning to form a decorative crown shape, especially vigorous species and varieties. Otherwise, it will thicken with young shoots and grow ugly.

Sanitary pruning in spring

Before the awakening of the kidneys (end of March - beginning of April), remove weak and damaged shoots growing inside the bush. If desired, you can shorten a few of the strongest branches, but proceed carefully, as excessive pruning can lead to a lack of flowering this year.

Sanitary pruning can be done at any time of the year. You will make a full-fledged formation of the crown of the bush after the mock orange has faded.

Anti-aging pruning

Approximately once every 2-4 years it is necessary to rejuvenate the plant. With an early vein in garden jasmine, cut off all shoots older than 10-12 years old at the very base of the bush (“on the stump”).

Due to such pruning, the crown of garden jasmine will be rejuvenated and powerful flowering and growth will be stimulated. New strong shoots will bloom next summer.

"Updating" the old bush

A very old or neglected bush is easier to rejuvenate with cardinal pruning.

1. At the end of April, cut down all the trunks at ground level, and cut 3-4 of the healthiest ones at a height of 35-40 cm. Treat the cut places with garden pitch, and spread a 4-5 cm layer of humus around the bush and dig the soil a little (6-8 cm) .
2. In summer, water the mock orange regularly and abundantly. It is also desirable to feed mullein infusion 1-2 times.
3. In the fall, new shoots will appear from dormant buds, but in the spring, 3-4 of the strongest ones will need to be left, and the rest should be completely removed. These most developed shoots are the basis of a young shrub.

Formative pruning of mock orange after flowering

Formative pruning of garden jasmine is best done immediately after flowering (mid-June), so as not to disturb flowering, as it blooms on last year's shoots.

1. First, remove all faded inflorescences. If spring was not pruned or there is a need, then completely remove all weak and damaged branches.
2. Then prune current year's shoots to last year's growth ( green area branches to the lignified part).
   By October, these branches will have time to develop a new growth with lateral shoots, which will appear flowers next spring.
   If you want to reduce the height of the bush, then cut off all or the longest shoots below the growth zone.
3. Also prune inward-growing and bare, weakly flowering, 4-5 year old shoots to thin out. And if the bush is very thick, then cut off 20-25% of the old trunks at the base.

Pruning mock orange in autumn

You should not prune young shoots of garden jasmine in autumn if you want it to bloom next year. In autumn, if necessary, you can carry out sanitary pruning and thinning of the bush (growing inwards and weak shoots).

Preparing for the winter mock orange

Most varieties of the plant are distinguished by good winter hardiness, especially of domestic selection. Adult mock orange bushes do not need winter shelter, and it is advisable to mulch specimens up to 2 years old with a 4-5 cm layer of peat or pine needles.

If the tops of annual shoots freeze in an adult garden jasmine in winter, it will still bloom, and with the help of pruning in the spring it is easy to restore the crown of the bush.

In the conditions of the Moscow region, the Leningrad region, Siberia and the Urals, it is better to plant winter-hardy varieties.

Pests and diseases

Mock orange is rarely affected by pests or diseases, but it is important to regularly inspect the shrub for their presence.

When choosing suitable place for landing should be guided by the feature that the plant in a special way actively grows and blooms in the south side of the site. However, even if planted in the northern zone or in partial shade, development will be carried out quite normally. It is important that there is no stagnation of groundwater in the soil composition, which can cause the development of fungal microorganisms and putrefactive processes.

• cuttings;
• layering;
• dividing the bush.

Sowing seeds can be done at any time of the year. If you carry out the procedure in winter, it is important that it is calm outside, and the thermometer does not fall below -10 degrees Celsius. It is important to close the seeds with straw or coniferous branches. In spring, the protection is removed, while the seedlings are protected from the aggressive effects of direct sunlight.

When propagated by cuttings planting material is harvested in the fall and stored in the basement for winter season. In early spring landing in open ground. As soon as the cuttings grow slightly, they need to be spudded, which will be a good stimulation of the growth of the rhizome.

To form layers, in early spring, you need to choose young shoots that are laid out in the beds and sprinkled with soil. When young shoots appear, layering spuds. AT autumn period they are separated from the main bush.

Reproduction by dividing the bush considered the easiest and most common way to propagate jasmine. At this stage, it is important to carefully separate the excavated root system, being careful not to damage it. Separate parts of jasmine are planted in different places of the territory.

Jasmine needs abundant watering, the intensity of which should be maximum in dry weather. Drying out of the soil is an extremely undesirable phenomenon that will cause the leaves to turn yellow, as a result of which the culture will stop blooming. About three liters of water should be poured per square meter of territory.

The first feeding activities are carried out only a year after planting, and in mineral and organic preparations are used as fertilizers. In a 10-liter bucket of water, 30 grams of superphosphate and 15 grams of urea are stirred. This top dressing is suitable for processing two bushes. As a good organic fertilizer, you can use slurry, which is diluted in a ratio of 1:10.

Jasmine needs regular pruning work, which are intended to give a neat shape and look. Every year, sanitary and cosmetic pruning should be carried out, thinning out the bushes and removing dried inflorescences to thin the crown. Once every three years, old shoots over the age of 12 should be removed.

In addition, pruning is also intended for anti-aging purposes, during which, in the spring, a bush is cut to 0.5 meters. If the stems are cut, it is better to treat the cut points with a garden pitch, which will prevent fungal diseases.

Protection against diseases and pests

• The soil for planting jasmine bushes should have good natural drainage., in the absence of it, be sure to provide it with additional measures.
• When digging bushes, when planting, do not bury the stem into the ground along with the root, it can rot.

• The root is immersed to a depth of about 50 cm.
• In the case of non-single planting, the bushes should be located at a distance of at least 0.5 m from each other. For a hedge, the optimal distance is 0.5-0.8 m.
• At the end of planting, watering is recommended in the amount of one or two buckets of water..

Jasmine Care

After planting, garden jasmine care comes down to three things:

• Fertilize the soil underneath.

Throughout the year, this garden shrub remains almost unnoticed, but as soon as it blooms, the fragrant honey aroma makes passers-by look around in admiration. How does the jasmine plant reproduce and what kind of care does it need so that it always pleases with decorative forms and violent spring flowering?

The high cost, and sometimes the inaccessibility of high-quality planting material, forces gardeners to independently master the cultivation of the plant they like. There are several ways to propagate jasmine with their own advantages and disadvantages, so it’s worth dwelling on each in more detail.

• Growing jasmine from seeds

Ripened seeds are collected from the selected plant and sown before the onset of severe frosts, around the end of November - early December, when there are already 10-15 centimeters of snow on the ground. Small seeds are embedded in the soil to a shallow depth and cover the area with a piece of agrofiber and pine branches. When the snow melts in the spring and the soil is saturated with moisture, the seeds will begin to germinate and green shoots will soon appear. Now it is important to provide them with regular watering and protection from the scorching sun until the seedlings get stronger. It will be possible to transplant them to a permanent place no earlier than in a year and a half, when the branches become a little stiff.

Ripened seeds are collected from the selected plant and sown before the onset of severe frosts.

The process is quite painstaking and time-consuming, and the young jasmine obtained from seeds will bloom only after six or seven years. But the surviving seedlings will be hardened, frost-resistant, with good immunity, able to resist diseases and pests.

• layering

When rejuvenating an adult bush or with sanitary pruning, the mother plant produces many new young shoots over the summer. Excess shoots are cut off at the root, and the strongest and most promising cuttings are bent to the ground in shallow grooves and fixed at the very base with wire. The holes are sprinkled with a mixture of sand and soil, watered abundantly and pressed with a brick to better retain moisture. Soon the shoot will take root, and after about 5-7 weeks, new shoots will appear on it. During the season, the layers are regularly watered and spud two or three times, stimulating the development of the root system. In autumn or early spring, the young plant is separated from the mother bush, the branches are shortened and transplanted.

This breeding method is very fast and efficient, but it is applicable only if it is possible to care for layering.

• Receipt young plant from cuttings

The best time for this is the beginning of summer, when the plant is full of vitality, there is still a long period of heat ahead, and you can evaluate the varietal characteristics by the flowering of the mother plant.

For rooting, cuttings no longer than 10-12 centimeters long are suitable, which do not break if they are bent into a ring. On cut branches, the lower leaves are cut off, and the rest are shortened by half. You can root the cuttings in the garden or in the greenhouse, the main thing is to provide nutritious, well-drained soil and sufficient sunlight. transparent cover in the form glass jar or a cut plastic bottle will create the necessary "greenhouse" microclimate for the development of the plant. From time to time, the cuttings need to be aired, shaded on hot summer days and, of course, regularly watered. As soon as you notice that new buds have appeared at the growth point, it means that the stalk is safely rooted. But it’s not worth removing the shelter completely - tender seedlings are still fragile and weak. For the winter, they are also recommended to be spudded and covered with wood shavings or dry needles, and replanted only next year in spring and autumn.

For planting jasmine in a permanent place, choose sunny areas with fertile soil. This does not mean that the shrub will not grow on poor soil or in the shade, but in this case you are unlikely to wait for abundant fragrant flowering.

Garden jasmine is a shrub that reaches a height of 1 to 2.5 meters and a crown diameter of up to 2 meters. Consider this when placing it next to other landings.

The plant is frost-resistant, when grown in the middle lane, only young seedlings need winter shelter. After transplantation, garden jasmine adapts for a relatively long time and blooms only in the third year.

For planting jasmine in a permanent place, choose sunny areas with fertile soil.

Having picked up a fertile site for planting with loose soil and without stagnant groundwater, further care behind jasmine will be uncomplicated. Several times during the summer it is necessary to weed weeds, remove shoots and loosen the ground shallowly, providing oxygen to the roots.

As spring dressings, it is recommended to use liquid fertilizers applied during irrigation - mullein infusion or a mineral complex of nitroammophoska. After the bush has faded, superphosphate is added, embedding the granules in the soil or wood ash.

Garden jasmine is quite resistant to diseases, but sometimes you can notice yellowing of the leaves, developmental delay and poor flowering - these are signs of chlorosis.

Story about what you need to know proper fit and care

This disease is usually caused by a lack of magnesium and iron in the soil. Some prophylactic drugs contain a lot of nitrogen, so experienced gardeners recommend using Orton Micro-Fe.

The main pests of jasmine are mites, aphids, scale insects and thrips. They damage, as a rule, young parts of the plant, destroying green shoots, buds and leaves. For the purpose of prevention, a “hot shower” is used, watering the shrub with water at 40-45 ⁰С. In case of infestation, it is recommended to treat the plant with appropriate insecticides.

Pruning and rejuvenation

With snow-white fragrant inflorescences, the bush always looks impressive, but after flowering, jasmine often becomes untidy, with shoots and old branches sticking out in all directions. And sometimes it even turns into dense thickets, which after a few years cease to bloom. Therefore, it is important to know how to care for jasmine so that it always pleases the eye. And in this case, only timely pruning and proper crown formation allows you to get an ornamental plant at any time of the year.

Here are some rules:

1. In early spring, all broken, snow-damaged and frost-damaged branches are cut.
2. To give the bush a symmetrical shape, shoots that are too long and strong are shortened, thereby stimulating the growth of lateral and annual shoots.
3. Old branches and young shoots are removed, which thicken and shade the crown.
4. Also, without regret, they remove the branches of the past and the year before last, which will no longer bloom profusely, but will only draw strength from the plant.
5. After flowering, branches older than 2 years are also removed and wilted inflorescences are cut off so that the jasmine does not expend energy on seed ripening.
6. To prevent infections, all sections are recommended to be processed using a clay "talker" or garden pitch.

Shrub rejuvenation is a radical pruning. In early spring, three or four of the strongest and relatively young shoots are shortened by 30-40 centimeters, and the remaining branches and shoots are cut at soil level. During the season, the plant will give a lot of young shoots, from which a new garden jasmine will form.
