Coniferous ornamental trees are gaining popularity among gardeners - with their help you can grow a hedge, completely change the look of a garden or a summer cottage, and also beautifully decorate the territory. Both large conifers for the garden and dwarf forms are known, perfect for alpine slides or framing flower beds or paths.
In addition to the well-known species of coniferous trees (pine, spruce, cedars, larch, etc.), quite exotic (for Russian latitudes) species of coniferous ornamental plants, for example, American torreya or cunningamia, are successfully bred. Perhaps experienced gardeners, of whom there are many among the users of Asienda.ru, will be interested in sciadopitis - an unusual plant in natural conditions can now be found only in Japan, but it is cultivated in other countries as well. Having grown sciadopitis in your garden, you can give the territory a unique flavor, creating a truly fabulous atmosphere.
It is impossible not to mention the one that has recently been undeservedly forgotten. Various types of this coniferous plant, which is not at all difficult to grow, will decorate any garden. Thuja is a very interesting coniferous decorative tree - its crown, according to experts, can and should be trimmed. As a result, it can be round, oval or elongated, depending on the preferences and taste of the gardener.
When choosing coniferous ornamental trees for a summer residence, you should first determine a place for planting - after all, many ornamental plants of these species greatly increase in size during the first 3-4 years. If the territory does not allow growing an elegant spruce or tall cedar, it is worth thinking about slowly growing conifers or their dwarf forms, for example, a fir of the Golden Spreader species. In 10 years, this tree will only grow up to 1 meter, but its diameter will be the same - a fluffy fir will adorn both a rock garden and will advantageously frame a flower bed.
An important step in growing is the selection of seedlings. As experts recommend, it is better to use seedlings of coniferous ornamental trees with a closed root system, which are sold in containers. Such ornamental plants can be planted in almost any season, while ordinary coniferous ornamental trees for the garden are planted during the so-called dormant period - late autumn, winter or early spring.
