For those who want to preserve gatsaniya for many years and make it a perennial, consider the option of indoor maintenance of this wonderful flower
Summer ends quickly, autumn comes and it's time to leave the summer cottages. But I really want to prolong the charm and bring a piece of the sun to my home. To admire the beauty on long winter evenings. For these purposes, adult gatsania bushes are suitable.
Transfer to the room
Gatsania is a perennial by nature. To preserve it until spring, plants are brought into the house at the beginning of September. The main condition is that the temperature outside and indoors should be approximately the same. Therefore, do not wait for a steady cold snap. If you are late with a transplant, then the bushes will dry out from a sharp temperature drop (it's cold outside, hot at home).
Provide each plant with a separate pot of at least 3 liters. When transplanting, they try to keep the earthen lump with the roots intact. Drainage is poured at the bottom of the dishes (expanded clay, pebbles, clay shards), on top of a small layer of fertile soil. Set the bush in the center. At the edges, the voids are filled with soil, making it good.
Moisturized with a nutrient solution for better survival. Watering provides a tighter adhesion of the soil to the roots, eliminates voids.
Care
For a week, the pot is shaded so that the plant takes root well and does not suffer from excessive evaporation of moisture from the leaves. For long flowering, solar windows are chosen, in the south or southeast direction. In such conditions, the flowers are open longer.
With a lack of light, fluorescent lamps are installed. This technique helps to maintain a compact, neat look of the bushes, the leaves and pedicels do not stretch.
Water the gatsaniya regularly, preventing the earthen coma from drying out. They are fed 2 times a month with small doses of liquid fertilizer (Agricola, Biohumus, Baikal).
Bloom
At home, flowering continues for another 4-5 months. Then comes a short period of dormancy, when only leaves remain on the plant. In the spring, a new wave of buds is formed. At this time, the bushes are especially in need of feeding.
After flowering, dried baskets are regularly removed, which stimulates the growth of more buds.
Reproduction
Over the winter, the bush increases significantly in size, forming from 15 to 20 young rosettes. It noticeably increases in volume, occupying the entire space of the pot. With the onset of spring, it is advisable to divide it.
First, slightly moisten the soil, carefully remove the gassing from the container. Divided into parts. In this case, you should trust the intuition of the flower. Sockets are obtained from one, two or three shoots. The main thing is that each part has maternal roots.
The shoots are transplanted one by one into separate containers or several pieces into a long box, setting a distance of 20 cm. Water well, cover with soil, compacting it. After a week, the bushes will get stronger and grow.
Place in the garden
With the onset of warm weather outside, the gatsania is planted back into the garden. It looks great in the foreground of a mixborder, rockery, rabatka. Islets of gatsania look original against the background of a mowed lawn. The most inventive gardeners create vertical flower beds from it. Old car tires, trolleys, armchairs and even the bodies of small cars come in handy as an improvised material, where there is no limit to the imagination of flower growers.
If the containers are rather large, you can leave the plant without transplanting, placing them in sunny places. Such flowerpots will decorate paths, gazebos, verandas.
Even the most inexperienced florist can grow and maintain beautiful gatsaniya. The main thing is to follow all of the above recommendations. Then you are guaranteed success!
