Artificial pond. Chapter 1


A large recovery in the landscape of the home, garden or park are artificial reservoirs of busch gardens various sizes, Bank of zasazhivayut op decorative plants, not only internally with the surrounding landscape, but with the pool. Decorative water than decoration on the farm was a special microclimate and the same can use well water to progretuyu poliva.

The size of the designed water directly depend on the size of your site and your ability. For example, a station in the 10 - 15 plot is enough water to the surface water to 5 m2. But the easiest decorative pond of 1 m in diameter and greater depth of 20-50 cm can be done anywhere in the station itself and not use expensive materials.

There are several ways to create artificial reservoirs. The easiest way is to use ready-Cast plastic forms. The shape and size can be varied, but the most common form-round. Mirror surface water from the natural outline most harmoniously fit into the green gardens. Specialty stores have a wide range of options available to build water tanks. You have to be determined and its location on the station. Another way is to use a special soft material to the inner surface of the seabed or Concrete. These two options are used to build water reservoirs, created its own draft. Concrete pools after winter usually require repairs because at the bottom they are cracked, and water can leave.

If allowed size of the field, you can obustroit "natural" with a decorative pond fish. Water can be decorated with beautiful garden air bridge, and under dense green sets rocky shore of the reservoir to locate benches. Soothing water from sunrise fontanchika or rotating wooden wheel not only enrich the water of oxygen, but the whole family will gather for recreation in nature. Creating a pond in a style very labour. Of course, first pond liners and foremost, to the pond, which contains fish, a biological or mechanical Filtering System. Technical design of the reservoir, it zarybnenie, a waterworks most challenging olive garden and complex part of the savage project. Choose a place for a water garden, and it will help you build a landscape designer. If you want to make a small pond own hands, the find in the market is necessary to implement your ideas today is not any work.

Artificial pond
Keep water in advance the idea of the garden and then to translate ideas. Penumbra is the most opportune place for water. When the reservoir location in the shadow there will be little water vapour. Without the sun algae growing much slower and longer than spring water, the water will neprotochnaya longer remain fresh. Most aquatic plants svetolyubivy, but you can find, and those who make shading. It should not be acceptable to water under the crown of trees, as water will fall fallen leaves and various crop residues. They will forgive pond, in this case, would require the installation of devices to purify water from floating debris. The trees will provide shade that prevent the growth and flowering water plants, and their roots may damage the bottom of the reservoir. To create a reservoir subject to appropriate care can choose station, sunlit fountains. Especially hilton garden inn in the hot time for the protection of flowering water will be needed ultraviolet filter.

Create beautiful fence!

To create a beautiful fence takes several years. But this is justified their useful service. Seedlings conifers are often at the age of 3 to 4 years as a fence evergreen grows very slowly. In turn, most shrubs quickly, and for 2 to 3 years can be dense and high fences. Even in the cold winter shrubs (eg Aralia Manchuria, buddleya David, kerriya) freeze slightly, in the year quickly restored. The biggest mistake beginners gardeners, too dense planting seedlings. It is important to remember that the plants for good branching and development needs beyond food and illumination area. With dense planting seedlings pulled, prematurely bare bottom.

Plant a living fence can be in the spring and autumn. Advance write a draft green fences. Depending on the destination planned to determine the form of fences, its location, decide to plant species diversity. Well prepare the way, this is usually done in the fall. Along the fence initially planned pulling cord stamp line, which will land. Then along cord to dig trench for planting depth to 60 cm and a width of about 65 centimetres (depending on the number of rows and number of plants). The distance between rows depends on the strength of growth of plants, ranging from 0.3 to 1 m. Choose the top fertile layer separately from the bottom to add a peregnoy, peat or other organic fertilizer. In winter cover boards or threats. Planting seedlings lead to a distance of 30-50 cm for Toprol bushes and up to 1 m for large plants. In two-column fences plant trees chequered course. Plant trees so that the root neck was from the ground, or can lead to slow growth. After planting the soil around the seedlings and carefully trample down pour on. If landing a summer, it should be pritenit tree to avoid sunburn and intense evaporation. After landing recommended rooting stimulants. Flip through planting can be done rollers of the land, which would not have to maintain the water to spill. For the weaker plants for the first time to set foot of the wooden cross along the row. Before planting to increase branching cut the top of seedlings. For coniferous plants Grooming spend when they reach a height of 20-40 cm, the procedure better later in the autumn.

Fence

Over time, with excrescence plants and trim interlocking branches of a certain image and the form of a living fence: rectangular, square, oval, triangular, trellis, trapezius and other heart fences make-solid, without gleaming. Of flora or trees can grow so-called trellis fences, which are particularly strong and tightness. Plants (cuttings or plants) bank angle of 45 ° to each other. If already effuse plants, the cutting shoots, leaves, young and the most powerful. They send an angle to each other. Branch to knit intertwined with one another, which places them cutting their bark and bags of insulation tape, and leave until the seam. The following year, repeat the procedure with the new shoot strong shoots. Grown in a way living fence will be very strong.

It should not be planted trees at the northern facade home where sunlight falls infrequently and damp from melting snow remains on the long. When landing from outer walls better to retreat at least 5 m from the edge of the driveway at 2 p.m. Consider carefully placing on the tree, with a strong root system. Very effuse roots can disrupt and destroy the foundation already appointed lawns and track site, a heavily effuse tree crowns would house the natural arrangements and the sun. Large trees should be harmony with the architecture of buildings, a small boarding house on the contrary may be too massive.

As material for hedgerows using seedlings of various species of trees and shrubs, often with spines (Crataegus, Rosa canina, etc.), for in farmstead landing Low and beautiful (sea, roses, etc.). In southern graceful living fences can be grown from bukusa, Lavra, rosemary with the artistic haircuts. Beautiful and fragrants fences are derived from jasmine, wild roses, lilacs and other flowering shrubs. Beautiful green fence of a coniferous trees, spruce, fir, industrial, mining. Fences more than 1.5 m from the hawthorn trees, fruits, fruits, jasmine fences average height from the plains, Kalina, raspberries, lilac, yellow shares. Low Toprol fences up to 1 m from the Japanese bereskleta, Privet, meadowsweet, Fabaceae, Rose.

Living fence

Green tree plantations in addition to contribute to the formulation of oxygen also pose aesthetic pleasure, make the landscape more attractive. In landscaping and the home of a leading role decorative foliage, and coniferous evergreen trees and shrubs. They are planted in lawns groups, large copies-one. Garden may be open or closed. Clear garden is a lawn with a separate standing trees, creating beautiful scenery and emphasizes architectural forms. Private garden or living fence is a stand of trees and shrubs, planted at a short distance from each other in one-two or more series.

Low fences (from 0.5 to 1 m) is usually used for hems tracks in the green, by parterre lawns and flowers at the alley. High or medium (1 - 2 m and above) have protective fences protective function: they planted in the division of the site into zones, with decorative design fences, they absorb noise and withering protect from the wind and cold.
Living fences

Living fences are simple (one type of plant) or complex (multiple species of trees and shrubs), multi-layered (centre high copies, on the sides of their lower-level) or single-planting trees and bushes. When selecting plants to range fences have to consider their Tailored to local soil and climatic conditions, crown shape and height, the time of flowering and fruiting, colors and shades of leaves in different seasons. Well room and grow almost any soil trees and shrubs such as mountain, Kalina, red maple, Field, negundo, to wartiness birch, larch, cherry, juniper sabina, Alberta plains, Yves Babylonian, Tunberga weed, wild grapes, Crataegus, Acacia White. But such trees and shrubs as fir, hornbeam, Lipa mild, Acer and silver maple, white Yves demanding to fertility of soil and climatic conditions.

Trees are different format crown: pyramidal (fir, maple Acer, white spruce), spherical (Konsky chestnut, maple and red field), weeping or wormwood (birch, cherry, Alberta plains).

Some species of trees and shrubs leaf colors and shades of change in the season. L. allocated beautiful painting leaves and black fruits with colored bloom, Buzina and river-bright red, yellow-red Schisandra, hips-gold, skumpiya - friable cob purple hue. Black, lilac, white Acacia, Jasmine, Rose, poplar teas during flowering blagouhayut unique flavor. Living fences

For the fence so you can find plants that during the summer season, he was continually flowering. For example, the median strip in April blooms black cherry; In May, Crataegus, ash, cherry, chestnut Konsky, romantic early grades; In June chernoplodnaya rest, White, Jasmine, Rosa canina; In July, Acacia yellow, Lipa, spiraea; A August-Fabaceae Van Guta.

The form of all living fences are freely rising and Shaped. Free growing fence is not required to master the perfect way to the station, and will not cause a lot of chores. They are from the bush, not bound Grooming. Such care is to maintain plantations, protection from pests, urea and sanitary cropping. Strizhenaya fence requires more care and careful selection of the range of plants.

Lawns, design and care

Lawn-translated from French means back. The green is the area with natural or artificially created grasses. In building green lawns paying much attention, they are divided into two groups : 1) ornamental lawns and 2) special-purpose lawns. Decorative Lawn, in turn, are divided into the following : parternye, meadow type (in parks and parks), a multi-ammonoids and Mauritanian (annuals, flowering Ararat). Special lawns is sports, airport separating transport and walking establishing slopes on the slopes, etc.

The parterre lawns located in front of the park and other places, making a basis of flower beds. They should be especially high quality, velvety, homogeneous on painting, equal without attacks and dense. The parterre lawns borrow the small area. To sow their use typically cereal grass with small tender leaves in the bottom of the bush, and quickly otrastayuschie after shearing. Lawn grasses should form good sod, to be steady against trampling, winter-hardy enough and decorative.For lawn grasses used mostly grass and fewer beans (such as white clover). All cereal grass divide into three groups : basic (meadow grass, red fescue, bent white), crown (fire lupine, meadow fescue, creeping teorological), intermediate (timothy(-grass), Lupinus).

Lawns meadow like a lot of space used for parks and other open parks. Such lawns sow with cereals 3 - 5 kinds. Using big team, bents, dog's-tail, Dactylis, Lupinus. Typically, adding a bit of white clover, and other long-term lyadvents grasses..

Multi ammonoids lawns are composed of ammonoids perennials Located groups against lawn. The main background of a low of grass-grazing and depressed one. In addition to sow grass meadow, bents dog's-tail and white, in equal parts. When using a mixture of 1 part grass seed and 2 seeds of flowering plants. In flower mixtures include 10 to 15 types of low greenhouse (30-40 cm), such as opium, knapweed, red flax, Iberis, Delphinium one, calendula, one.

Moorish, or the multicoloured lawn consists of ammonoids annual plants in a mixture of cereal grasses, as well as decorative , winter-hardy perennials(snowdrop, tulips, naked, bellscamomiles). They are used primarily greenhouses and in very rare cases, multi break into bloom year planting.
Creating a lawn requires a lot of attention and work. Initially, are preparing land to grassland, check the value of the plant soil. If no such layer, or it is a very small one, it creates a fertile soil, for example, with the addition of black sand or clay. Thick vegetation layer shall not be less than 15 cm layer Before making plant produces plowing Smithsonian, it must razravnivaetsya, makes fertilizer, and then perepahivaetsya. Ideally this process made in the fall, but can and spring. If planting seeds scheduled spring, after handling ground subsidence leave for 2 to 4 weeks.
Lawns zasevayut spring (during planting of spring crops), early spring, late fall and less at the end of October, so that shoots appeared in early spring. Given Field crop seed rules krupnosemyannyh seeding grasses range from 40 to 50 g per 1 sq. m. srednesemyannyh-20 - 30 g per 1 sq. m. melkosemyannyh-5 - 10 g per 1 m2. After the selection range grasses define the lawn area and count the number of seeds. Then choose assortment flowering plants (for the Mauritanian lawn). Wintergreens of ammonoids lawns planted at the same distance, it is recommended that when they landed on the lawn. Before planting grass lawn area mark to strip width of 1.5 to 2 m in two mutually directions. For more equitable distribution of seeds in the seed produced no wind. On curb lawn grass sowing more densely. After planting the seeds stop up hand rake to a depth of 0.5 to 1 cm and a prikatyvanie or to ram. Summer better seed neem seeds. In dry weather it is necessary irrigate crops 1 to 2 times a day. Following reduce crop irrigation.
