Bulbous plants have certain characteristics by which they can be distinguished from the others.The main feature is the special structure of the rhizome.This part is an independent bulb.Rhizome has the ability to further develop in favorable conditions.The bulb can be distinguished circular formation of the small size - Donets.Around him are arranged germ roots, which began to develop in the ground.
When considering the bulbs in a longitudinal section, you can see the germ of a flower arrows.About her future leaf buds are located.The bulbs are in some way "pantry."It stores nutrients and compounds.These substances can be activated at any time of year, so bulbous indoor plants can develop and grow, even if they are planted in the fall or winter.That is what they are different from other species.
It should be noted that the bulbous plants grown at home are different variety of colors, easy to care for.Because of this, many ornamental species are popular with gardeners.
must be said that the most important attribute, which have the bulbs - this is what the bulb contains a certain number of leaves.In this regard, you need to carefully treat their truncation, because in fact they are an element of power.Growing bulbs in the home, only to be cut dried leaves, those that are about to fall off.
Ornamental species tend to thermophilic.Potted flowers (bulbs) can not stand on the street in the winter.Once all the leaves will wither away, leave them in a pot and reduce watering to a minimum before the time, until growth resumes.At the same time there are some bulbous plants (tuber begonias, achimenes, for example), which must be kept in the wet turf, and immediately prior to the development of transplanted to normal pot.
When watering should observe extreme care - Excessive moisture can cause rot.These bulbous plants, the Dutch hyacinths, are particularly prone to rot.That is why in the process of distillation, you must be extremely careful.
Bulbous ornamentals best feeling in the cool, bright place.It should be remembered that the low temperature can be dangerous for them.
for planting bulbs is desirable to choose pots, the length of which corresponds to their height.Undesirable too voluminous pots in which too much ground, since the substrate is exposed in this oxidation.Most suitable are thin-walled, porous clay container slaboobozhzhennye.When this wall pots should not be glazed.
Good drainage layer of small stones, gravel or broken bricks covered with gray moss chopped, mixed with chopped wood charcoal, provide a full flow of water.For a better ventilation of the root system is recommended to place the pots on the windowsill not right, and install them on the wood chips.It is best to water the bulbs melt the snow or rain water.If this is not possible, you can use pre-settle, soft water from the tap.
like other ornamental flowering plants, bulbs grow well in the regular feeding.Due to the fact that they grow in a relatively small amount of substrate, the nutrients can exclusively receive externally with fertilizers.These ornamentals learn better irrigation, of which consists of potassium, phosphorus and nitrogen.
Bulbous plants are an excellent material for the decoration of bouquets, baskets, compositions.
