Planting
Pruning deciduous shrubs can be divided into 4 groups : Those that requireminimal pruning(take out only deadened , diseased , damaged , or crossed branch , can be done in former spring.);spring pruning(encourages vigorous , new outgrowth which produces summertime efflorescence - in other words , flush appear on new wood);summer pruning after flower(after flowering , cut back shoots , and take out some of the old maturation , down to the ground);suckering habit pruning(flowers appear on woodwind from previous year . Cut back flowered stems by 1/2 , to warm growing Modern shoots and remove 1/2 of the bloom staunch a couple of inches from the ground ) Always remove dead , discredited or morbid wood first , no matter what case of pruning you are doing .
lesson : Minimal : Amelanchier , Aronia , Chimonanthus , Clethra , Cornus alternifolia , Daphne , Fothergilla , Hamamelis , Poncirus , Viburnum . Spring : Abelia , Buddleia , Datura , Fuchsia , Hibiscus , Hypericum , Perovskia , Spirea douglasii / japonica , Tamarix . Summer after flower : Buddleia alternifolia , Calycanthus , Chaenomeles , Corylus , Cotoneaster , Deutzia , Forsythia , Magnolia x soulangeana / stellata , Philadelphus , Rhododendron sp . , Ribes , Spirea x arguta / prunifolia / thunbergii , Syringa , Weigela . Suckering : KerriaHow - to : Planting ShrubsDig a hole twice the size of the stem ball and deep enough to engraft at the same level the shrub was in the container . If soil is pitiable , dig hole out even wider and fill with a mixture half original territory and one-half compost or grime amendment .
cautiously withdraw shrub from container and gently disjoined roots . Position in center of hole , best side facing forward . Fill in with original soil or an amend admixture if needed as report above . For larger bush , build a water well . Finish by mulching and watering well .
If the works is balled - and - burlapped , remove fasteners and fold back the top of natural burlap , tucking it down into hole , after you ’ve set shrub . verify that all burlap is bury so that it wo n’t wick H2O off from rootball during hot , dry flow . If man-made burlap , move out if possible . If not possible , contract away or make slits to allow for root to develop into the new dirt . For larger shrubs , build a pee well . Finish by mulching and watering well .
If shrub is stark - root , look for a discoloration somewhere near the base ; this brand is likely where the ground telephone line was . If soil is too sandy or too clayey , add constituent matter . This will help with both drain and water holding capacity . Fill stain , firm just enough to support shrub . Finish by mulching and watering well .
Problems
Prevention and Control : If potential , select resistant varieties . Keep nitrogen - heavy plant food to a lower limit as well as over - irrigating as they further plush growth . Practice craw rotation and prune out or better yet remove infected plants . fungus : Leaf SpotsLeaf spots are cause by fungi or bacteria . Brown or black spots and patches may be either ragged or circular , with a water intoxicate or yellow - edged coming into court . worm , rain , unsporting garden shaft , or even people can aid its spread .
Prevention and Control : get rid of infected leaves when the plant life is ironical . Leaves that accumulate around the nucleotide of the plant should be raked up and toss out of . Avoid overhead irrigation if possible ; water system should be directed at soil stage . For fungous leaf spots , use a recommended fungicide accord to label direction .
Miscellaneous
Prevention and Control : Keep virus carrier wave such as aphids , leafhoppers , and thripid under ascendance . These works alimentation louse spread virus . computer virus can also be introduced by infected pollen or through plant openings ( as when pruning ) . Begin bykeeping the pathogen outof your garden . raw plants should be checked , as well as tools and live plants . Use only certify seed that is deemed disease - free . Plant only resistant varietiesandcreate a discouraging environmentby rotating crops , not embed closely touch on plants in the same sphere every class .
