Description of the features of the care and cultivation of the daisy
This plant is recommended to be planted in sunny areas or slightly shaded areas, on which there will be either loose or fertile soil. It is noteworthy that this plant can also grow well on loamy soils, and as for heavy and sandy soils, the plant will develop very poorly there. For the favorable development of the daisy, moderate watering is required, and excessive soil moisture can have an extremely negative effect on the development of this plant. From time to time, you should remove those inflorescences that have already bloomed. In addition, it is required to weed and loosen the soil in which the plant grows. It should be noted that the daisy is quite responsive to feeding. This role should be played by organic fertilizers: for example, manure. This plant will need feeding about twice a month. The first feeding is necessary at the very beginning of May, but the next one will be required after the flowering period ends. It is recommended to mulch the soil every year. In order to protect the daisy from possible diseases, you will need to sprinkle the soil with wood ash.
In the autumn period, it is required to cut the stems of the daisy under the root. It should be noted that this plant is considered frost-resistant, for this reason no shelter is required for the winter period of time. However, if you want your plant to survive well, then you should cover the plant for the winter.
Nivyanik reproduction
Reproduction of this plant can occur both through cuttings and with the help of seeds or dividing the rhizome. The seeds of this plant can be purchased separately or harvested from the previous harvest. Sowing seeds is recommended either in the fall or early spring. Seeds must be sown directly into open ground, while the depth should be about two centimeters. From above, mulch the soil with peat. Daisy seedlings will appear in about twenty days. Such seedlings must be planted directly in their permanent place. In those holes that are intended for planting this plant, compost should be added, such compost must be mixed with the ground. After that, one plant at a time can be planted in the holes. After planting is completed, the plant should be watered. It is noteworthy that in this case, the flowering of this plant will come the next year.
As for reproduction by dividing rhizomes, this should be done either in the fall or in the spring. Rhizomes need to be dug out with a knife, and then divided into several parts. It is important to plant such parts of the plant at a distance of about thirty centimeters from each other. Delenki do not need to be dug into the ground to an impressive depth. Reproduction in this way, as well as the transplantation of this plant, is recommended to be performed every three to four years.
