Product description
:
Ceratostigma plumb-shaped, plumbago, Chinese lead — all these are the names of one plant, which is called Ceratostigma in Latin. These are perennial herbaceous plants and semi-shrubs, numbering 8 species.
The plant is curly, evergreen, deciduous, fell in love with five-petalled blue flowers. Ceratostigma can be considered an oriental beauty: it is found in the natural environment in southeast Asia, China, Tibet. The flowers appear at the ends of the shoots and gather into spike-shaped inflorescences. The leaves are simple, regular, reddish-brown.
The genus Ceratostigma is included in the family of leadworts. It cannot boast of a large numerical composition, only 8 species act under a common name. These are shrubs and perennial herbaceous plants that grow in tropical and temperate zones of China and Africa.
In addition to medium-height shrubs, ideal for creating living borders, there are miniature plants in the genus that barely exceed 10 cm. Such Ceratostigmas perfectly cope with groundcover functions.
All members of the genus have curly, clinging stems, slightly hairy. The leaves are simple, oval, with a slightly pointed tip and pubescent edges. The front surfaces of the leaf blades are painted bright green. The wrong sides are greenish―gray. Unremarkable leaves in spring and summer are transformed in autumn. The foliage, which has changed its color to a rich red with a bronze tint, looks great.
The unconditional beauty of the leaves cannot, however, surpass the decorative nature of the flowers. Flowering begins at the end of summer, when small blue, blue, purple flowers appear in spike-shaped inflorescences.
These plants can be grown both outdoors and in containers. They do not impose special requirements for care, easily reproduce, get along well with bulbous and coniferous representatives of the flora. And yet, due to low frost resistance, it is better to keep the Ceratostigma in containers that need to be brought into a room with a temperature of +3-12 ° C for the winter.
Ceratostigma Auriculata Imperial Blue
The plant is groundcover, reaches a height of 35 cm. Small blue flowers gather in racemose inflorescences. The leaves are delicate, small, light green in color.
This species is ideal for both flower beds and potted cultivation. Sow the plant for seedlings in February-March. After three weeks, seedlings will appear, which are then transplanted.
Instructions for
planting and care
:
Sowing in the ground
You can sow in the deep autumn under winter or in early spring, as soon as the earth ripens. The perennial is not afraid of frosts, the seeds will rise when optimal conditions occur. The depth of embedding is 1-2 cm, the distance in a row between seedlings is 5-6 cm. The aisles are made 20-30 cm wide . Considering that the bushes are creeping and growing, it is better to plant the grown seedlings less often, according to the 30x30 scheme.
Impatient gardeners can sow ceratostigma in late February-March.
Growing seedlings according to general principles: a container with drainage holes, well-drained nutrient soil is required.
It is necessary to sow shallowly, as rarely as possible.
The grown shoots at the stage of 2-3 real leaves are dived into separate cups and grown before transplanting into the ground on a bright warm windowsill.
Regularly and moderately watered.
Before planting, you need to harden the plants, you need to plant at a steady plus temperature at night.
Plumbago care and maintenance
In dark and humid places, lead grows poorly. Choose a sunny place where it will be warm and dry. The open areas of the garden are ideal.
Clay heavy soils are contraindicated for plumbago. Moderately fertile, light, slightly moist soil with good drainage is suitable.
Top dressing is applied in small quantities 1-2 times a month. It is good to apply phosphorus-containing mineral fertilizers during flowering.
If there is a small amount of precipitation, water moderately.
In the spring, after the snow melts, prune last year's shoots at your discretion, forming the necessary shape of the bush.
