Name of autumn flowers in the garden. Autumn flowers for the backyard: a variety of species

Perennial flowers in the garden have clear advantages over annuals: you do not need to plant every year, they are highly decorative and, finally, by choosing the right plants, you can achieve not only the perfection of colors, but also constant flowering in your garden from early spring to late autumn.

When drawing up a flower arrangement, in addition to the timing of flowering, one must also take into account the size of plants, the structure and color of their inflorescences.

Did you know? Perennial garden flowers are distinguished by growth - undersized (up to 50 cm), medium-sized (50 - 80 cm) and tall (from 80 cm and above); by type of roots - tuberous, rhizome, bulbous, bulbous.

Perennials blooming in spring

Spring flowers in the country are undersized ornamental plants, bloom small flowers(more often have pastel colors). The timing and duration of flowering are highly dependent on weather conditions (early or late spring, warm or cold weather).

Adonis (lat. Adonis) - has about 45 species of annual and perennial plants. It has been actively used in park and garden art since the 17th century. Blooms in the second half of spring. Stems simple or branched. The inflorescence is a simple basket. The flowers are bright yellow (sometimes red) with glossy petals, solitary (up to 8 outer tepals).

Winter-hardy plant, grows well in open, lit places (slight darkening is allowed). The preferred soil is light, moist, with organic matter and lime. Adonis does not like transplants very much (if necessary, transplant with a clod of earth).

In culture, adonis perennials are most often found:

• fluffy adonis (A. Villosa)- blooms in May, has pubescent stems, reaches a height of up to 30 cm;
• spring adonis (A. vernalis) or adonis- blooms in late April - early May, the only medicinal species adonis (often used as a component of cardiac preparations);

• adonis amur (A. amurensis)- characterized by early flowering, bare stems, leaves with long petioles. Japanese breeders have created several hybrids (hinomoto - orange shades, benten - white petals, ramosa - brown with red, etc.).

Important! Adonis is listed in the Red Book and is protected by law. Adonis roots are poisonous (should be taken into account when used independently in treatment). Poison protects the plant from pests.

Hyacinth

Oriental hyacinth (Hyacinthus orientalis) has served as the basis for more than 400 ornamental varieties gacinths.

Hyacinths are bulbous, after flowering the green stem dries out. Flowers on a thin peduncle are collected in the form of a brush. They are simple, terry and multi-flowered.

Hyacinths prefer lit, flat (with a slight slope), protected from the wind areas, with light fertile soils. The groundwater level is at least 50 cm. Although in open field hyacinths are practically not susceptible to pests and diseases, care should be constant (2-3 times loosen the soil, 3 times before flowering, during the formation of buds and at the end of flowering - fertilize, water periodically).
Simple hyacinths vary in color and are divided into 6 groups:

• white(“Argentina”, “Carnegie”, “Linnosans”, etc.);
• pink(“Pink Pearl”, “Fondant”, “Anna Marie”, etc.);
• red("Generale Pelissier", "La Victoire", etc.);
• blue("Miozotis", "Maria", "King ose Blues", etc.);
• lilac/violet("Amethyst", "Bismarck", "Lord Balfour");
• yellow/orange("Yellow Hammer", "Orange Bowen").

A flower is planted mainly with seedlings, but if an unstable plant gets into the open ground, it will not take root. Blossoms on flowerbeds located on the sunny side, from mid-summer to the very cold. A fairly resistant plant to frost and pest attacks.

Rudbeckia

Beautiful, showy autumn flowers called Rudbeckia bloom from July to October. The most common varieties are hairy, shiny and glossy rudbeckia, reaching a height of 200 cm, some wild species grow up to 3 meters.

The trunk is covered with villi and has large oval and stem leaves. Flowers with a diameter of about 15 cm, similar to chamomile, yellow, orange, red color with a core of light brown or red-black color with a velvety texture.

A completely unpretentious plant, but respecting the warm weather, if the planting of seeds or seedlings is carried out during cold nights, rudbeckia will not take root.

Phloxes

Perennial with bright lush flowers lives from mid-summer to frost. Phlox height varies from 10 to 150 cm with paniculate or corymbose inflorescences about 5 cm in diameter. Shoots erect with oval-shaped leaves and flowers of various colors - snow-white, pink, red, blue, lilac with an attractive smell.

Popular varieties are:

• phlox paniculata;
• Vladimir;
• cloud;
• Anna;
• novelty;
• Margri.

Despite the fact that phloxes - moisture-loving plants, they do not tolerate stagnant water near the root system. To ensure the care of these flowers, you need to plant them in an elevated bed away from large shrubs and trees. In the absence of free space, phloxes will die in competition for light and water.

Chrysanthemums and Zinnias (Majors)

Chrysanthemums are the most popular autumn flowers imported from Japan. A perennial green-brown shrub from 30 cm to 150 cm high with a characteristic smell, blooms from late August until the start of frost.

Inflorescences - simple, semi-double, double, tubular and needle. The variety of varieties is striking in shapes, colors and sizes. Korean chrysanthemums with small, abundant flowers are especially respected for their unpretentiousness in care.

Zinnia - annual plant height 30-100 cm with double, semi-double and simple inflorescences. In shades of color of flowers, only a blue tint is missing. Zinnias bloom from July to October.

Leaves of a green or light green shade of a pointed and oval shape, covered with a hard fluff on erect stems, will decorate any flower garden.

It is difficult to pay attention to each flower separately and describe all the species. The choice for a flower garden is individual and depends on different reasons- an unpretentious or requiring careful care plant is planned to be planted, at what weather conditions it will be grown and how sunny the planting site will be. It must be remembered that autumn flowers in any case require timely watering, and sometimes fertilizing.

Able to suddenly flare up with bright farewell colors. There is still plenty of sun in September and even October for a number of plants to fully bloom. Autumn is rightfully called the most colorful season of the year.

How to organize the care of autumn plants

1. At the start of flowering autumn plants it is recommended to stop watering. Water is needed only for those that are transplanted or grow only a year. Inflorescences that have stopped flowering are removed. Perennial types are cut to the root. If the pruning is high, then the stems are left for the winter and removed in the spring.
2. During this period, plants are recommended to be supported with superphosphate preparations and potassium sulfate. Flowers with tubers in the form of bulbs are fertilized only with potassium. Some representatives are allowed to perform hilling, sprinkle with spruce branches or cut branches for the winter.

This is not the whole list of autumn plants. There are many of them, and all are able to bring joy with colorful flowers. And if there was a desire to enjoy the view in autumn bright inflorescences- do not rush to plant everything in a row.

Gardeners and gardeners know that autumn planting saves precious spring hours, when there is so much work that you don’t know which one to take on first. According to experts, plants, including ornamental ones, also like this agricultural technique - the test of winter cold makes them stronger, activates internal resources. The result is generous and in most cases earlier than normal flowering. In autumn, you can plant almost any perennial flowers. Which ones to choose - everyone decides for himself, but there are some favorites that are found in every second garden.

Why do you need an autumn planting of perennials

Some perennials can be planted even in slightly frozen soil, they do not need sunlight at all.

A prerequisite for planting many crops is the stratification (hardening) of seeds. During autumn plantings, this process occurs naturally. Sprouts hatched from such seeds endure weather tests. Young growth, as a rule, is not afraid of the returning spring cold and even frost, which would be detrimental to seedlings grown in greenhouse conditions.

Flowers planted in autumn have other benefits:

• they begin to bloom about half a month earlier than those sown in spring, and retain their decorative effect throughout the season;
• their immunity is stronger, they are more resistant to diseases and pests;
• in the future, they do not require frequent transplants, like perennials grown in the traditional way (enough 1 time in 2-3 years);
• give high-quality planting material obtained by dividing the plant into several parts;
• they are unpretentious in care.

A small minus can be considered the fact that seed consumption during autumn plantings is slightly higher than in spring. The fact is that as a result of stratification, non-viable seeds die. However, it is not worth solving this problem by deeply deepening the seeds into the soil - this will not protect them from frost in any way, but in the spring it will make it difficult for the sprouts to move towards the sun.

What perennial flowers can be planted in the fall: 7 best options

Gardeners have long been accustomed to the fact that decorative bulbous and shrub crops are planted in the fall. The fact that perennials can be grown in a similar way, without cluttering window sills with seedling containers in spring, is a pleasant discovery for many. The main thing is not to be mistaken with the timing of planting in the country: in central Russia this is usually mid-November, in the southern regions - the end of the month, in the northern regions - its beginning. Depending on the vagaries of the weather, schedule changes are possible. It is important not only to know what flowers are planted in the fall, but also to take into account the peculiarities of their planting and cultivation, as well as take into account the time that will have to be spent on caring for them.

Asters differ not only in terms of flowering and height, but also in the structure of flowers - they are pink, peony, chrysanthemum

This crop in ornamental gardening is striking in its variety of species, however, early-flowering varieties, for example, alpine aster, are best suited for autumn plantings (late-flowering ones are usually planted in spring).

Seeds are sown in November. A prerequisite for landing is frozen ground. Sometimes a perennial aster is sown even in early December, right in the snow. In order for friendly shoots to appear in the spring, it is impossible to deepen the seeds by more than 0.5 cm into the soil.

For successful growth, a number of conditions are required: moisture should not stagnate on the site, otherwise the roots will begin to rot, and the place should be sunny enough - asters will die in the shade.

Flowering of early varieties, which were sown in autumn, begins in May-June (2-3 weeks earlier than in spring plantings). If seeds of late-flowering plants were used for sowing, flowering will occur in September-November.

Spring care consists of thinning: if the sprouts have sprouted very actively, some of them will have to be removed - the asters will bloom luxuriantly and brightly if the distance between them is 20–30 cm. Plantings may also need watering when the moisture formed after the snow melts is used up . If a dense crust forms on the surface of the soil, it must be loosened. During the further growing season, the flowers will need regular weeding, and once a season, top dressing with a complex mineral fertilizer is needed.

In late autumn, experts also recommend planning the reproduction of perennial asters with the help of seedlings - on the eve of winter, they are planted on permanent place. Flowers have time to take root well, provided that the soil for them was prepared 2-3 weeks before planting, and the place was chosen sunny.

It is much cheaper and easier to grow a delphinium from seeds than to purchase ready-made planting material.

Podzimny sowing is a smart solution for those who would like these flowers to bloom in May or early June. For the delphinium, this is especially true, because then the plant has a chance to please the gardener with repeated flowering in the fall (provided that the flower stalks of the "first wave" were cut).

Depending on the nature of the autumn weather, delphinium seeds are sown in open ground in October or November. They are sprinkled thin layer mixtures of peat and sand and cover for the winter with spruce branches, however, the survival rate of seedlings will still be somewhat lower than after spring planting. In this regard, experts recommend in the fall to increase the volume of consumed seeds by 20-30%. Seedlings will be strong and friendly, provided that a sunny site has been chosen, and the soil is well prepared - dug up and fertilized.

In September, delphiniums are propagated by dividing the rhizome. In plants aged 3–4 years, it is cut into 7–10 parts. A prerequisite is the presence on each of the parts of the kidneys or at least one shoot. The plant tolerates winter well and blooms profusely in June.

In care, delphiniums are unpretentious, but watering, especially during dry seasons, is important for them.

To make the bushes bloom longer, you need to get rid of the flowering shoots with a knife

This plant is propagated by divisions, and, as a rule, in the fall. In the spring, the peony is not yet ready for this procedure - it root system exhausted, since all the forces of the plant are spent on building up green mass and forming buds. In addition, after such manipulations, the peony still will not have time to bloom in the season that is just beginning.

If reproduction by divisions occurs in the fall (in the middle lane - in early September), the first inflorescences will appear in May. September for the formation of new peony bushes is good because the heat ends, night temperatures differ significantly from daytime ones (the plant is hardening), it rains more often, which has a beneficial effect on the condition of the soil.

IN different regions the timing of these works are slightly different:

• in Siberia, the period from August 20 to September 20 is considered optimal;
• in the Urals - from August 20 to the end of September;
• in the Volga region and Moscow region - from the end of August to the end of September.

The main condition is that 35-45 days should remain before the onset of cold weather. This time is enough for the peony to grow additional roots and securely entrenched in the ground. Delaying the deadlines is fraught with the fact that a poorly rooted plant will come out of the winter with a weakened immune system and will not be able to resist pests and diseases.

Care for a newly planted plant involves watering up to 10 liters per bush. In the future, rains help to solve the problem, but if the autumn is dry, the plant may need 2-3 waterings before the onset of winter. Top dressing is not needed only if fertilizers were applied to the soil at the stage of preparation for planting. In any case, nitrogen is contraindicated for peony at this time - this fertilizer activates the growth of green shoots, which is highly undesirable on the eve of winter.

Those who decide to propagate this flower using seeds that ripen in boxes in the place of the former bud are advised to abandon the idea. In this case, the varietal features of the peony are most often not preserved, and it will take at least five years to wait for flowering.

The bushes should be planted in such a way that when the growth is completed, the plantings are closed: the primrose has a negative attitude towards excess space

Gardeners love primroses because they are among the first to decorate flower beds with bright colors. In order for flowering to begin in May, seeds are sown in open ground in the fall (in the middle lane - at the end of September). The seeds are buried minimally - by 0.5 cm, plantings are covered to protect against severe frosts in winter.

The conditions under which you can count on the successful growth of future plants are a well-chosen planting site (primroses like partial shade), fertility and sufficient soil moisture.

If the planting of flowers is planned for the design of the rock garden, the south side should be avoided.

If it is not sowing that is required, but a transplant of plants, then in the fall this operation should be done at the end of September or October in such a way that the primrose has enough time to take root before the onset of cold weather, otherwise the winter will be fatal for it. In this case, it is easier for residents southern regions they have more time.

The division of the bushes is also carried out in the fall, after the completion of the flowering phase. It is recommended to cover young plants without waiting for the onset of serious cold weather.

At the time of purchase planting material you need to pay attention to the presence of up to 5 correctly colored shoots, the length of which reaches about 6 cm

Phloxes are usually propagated by cuttings, as they take root well, and it is best to do this in the fall: spring plantings postpone flowering for a whole year, and the "autumn" ones will bloom next summer.

In the old days in Russia, phloxes were called "sitchik".

More precisely, the timing of planting is determined depending on the varieties of the flower: early and medium-early form the so-called "renewal buds" by the end of August. This means that the plant can already be propagated. For late phlox varieties, this period is postponed to the second decade of September. In any case, the propagation and replanting of bushes should be completed by mid-October so that young plants do not suffer from frost. It usually takes 30-40 days for cuttings to root.

Phlox planted in autumn require minimal care, even watering is usually not needed, since autumn rains provide moisture to the plant. But top dressing will come in handy - complex fertilizer mixed with ash and scattered over the frozen ground. In the spring, plantings are watered with mineral fertilizer diluted in it, thanks to which the flowering becomes richer, and its terms are long.

Plants planted in autumn are protected from frost by mulching with sawdust, peat. In the spring, as soon as the snow melts, the mulch is immediately removed.

Astilbes look especially impressive against the background of ferns and in the shade. coniferous plants, but single landings are also possible

This beautiful plant, flowering from June to August, is best propagated by dividing the bush. Work is recommended to be carried out in autumn, when the average daily temperature does not fall below +5 ° C for 2–3 weeks. In central Russia, the beginning of September is considered the right time for planting astilba.

Flowering begins the next summer (in its second half), however, experts recommend preventing this, cutting off the emerging flower stalks. Unpopular "surgical" measures have to be taken because an insufficiently strong plant sometimes dies, giving all its strength to the flowers.

Another feature of this culture is the growth of the root system in the form of an island that rises above the soil level. This seriously weakens the plant, so astilba needs a transplant every 4-5 years. It is carried out in early September, while the large bush is divided into several small ones. If work is postponed to a later date, the soil around fresh plantings must be mulched with sawdust, straw or spruce branches) so that the plants successfully survive the winter cold.

Astilba care usually comes down to watering: as soon as it receives less water, the inflorescences become small, the leaves wither.

Astilba comfortably tolerates cold Russian winters (down to -37°C), practically does not get sick, and garden pests not particularly interested in her.

The life expectancy of loosestrife with proper care is more than 10 years

plant, in last years gaining popularity with flower growers, usually propagated by seeds or vegetatively. Both are usually done in the fall, but preference is still given to the second method, and here's why: a plant grown from seeds only begins to bloom in the third year. With vegetative propagation by dividing the bush, flowers appear at the beginning of the next June and continue to please with bright colors until mid-August.

China is considered the birthplace of loosestrife, where you can find more than 70 species of this flower.

Planting works are carried out in September-October. In order for the plant to better prepare for winter, it should not have young leaves at the time of planting. If a whole bush is transplanted to a new place, without dividing into several, care must be taken that the prepared hole is deeper than the previous one. This necessary condition so that flowering is not late, but begins the next year.

Other conditions under which loosestrife retains its decorative effect for a long time are fertile land and rather high soil moisture. But he is not afraid of the winter cold, and it is not required to cover the flowers.

Having mastered autumn planting perennials in various ways, the gardener achieves that in the spring he does not waste time growing seedlings, and already at the very beginning of the season he has flower beds with strong plants that have been hardened by the winter cold. They do not need to adapt in the open field, they have enough strength to start flowering earlier than they do when planting in the spring.
