Flowering hydrangea is a real decoration of the garden landscape: with the help of this flower you can make picturesque and original any plot. However, sometimes gardeners face that the flowering decorative plant refuses. Why does not bloom in hydrangea, with which the problem may be connected and how to solve it - learn from the article.

For most varieties of hydrangea, the root system "grows up" in 2-3 years after landing: then flowering comes. But there are varieties that take about 6 years so that the roots grow and develop. If hydrangea blooms in general, the following reasons for this phenomenon are possible:

• incorrect selection of varieties;
• incorrectly selected rooting place;
• adaptation period after landing / transplanting;
• insufficient watering;
• incorrect trimming - usually too radical;
• illiterate torn shrub;
• freezing the kidneys for the winter;
• defeat by pests, illness.

Select variety

For today, the scientists know about 70 species and varieties of the plant. There are hydrangea in the form of grassy low shrubs, there are tree varieties, lianas, evergreen and deciduous varieties. And at least the choice is extensive, in the conditions of our climate, many of the varieties grow normally in the open soil will not work.

There is a fairly extensive part of the hydrangea, which simply do not have time to bloide in the conditions of a short summer. And if you purchased just such a variety - blooms can never wait.

For our climate, only a limited part of hydrangeas is suitable from all the diversity that exists. It is good for a tree variety, soil and scattered. These are the most unpretentious and hardy views, which can also be in a short cool summer.

Unsuccessful choice of rooting

When going to land in an open ground, Hingtonesia, the place for it needs to be selected with all the specific requirements. So, an extremely uncomfortable plant feels in places fully open, especially - under the scorching sunny rays. In such conditions, if hydrangea bloomed, then this period will not last: the delicate petals will simply burn, fade and fall.

If the plot is all sunny, plan the Hydnesius Miscellaneous: This view is better than others tolerate the sun. However, do not forget about abundant regular moisture: only at the same time the plant will bloom well.

In the shady spot, the flower is not worth it too. In the conditions of almost the complete absence of sunlight, large-scale (and any other) hydrangea will delight with abundant blossoms. In this case, the plant will also develop badly.

Under shady crowns of large trees, it is therefore not worth putting a hydrangea. In addition, the crown of neighboring trees will create a significant shadow, almost impenetrable solar rays, so also water roots of powerful plants will be taken away.

The optimal places of landing will serve as a site, illuminated and heated by the Sun in a two-way time. Hortensified in such place will delight especially long, abundant bloom. Optimal lighting in this way - a half or scattered.

If the place is incorrectly chosen, and the flower has already managed to root, nothing remains except to transplant it. However, at first, think, is there any other way to correct the situation: after all, the transfer of hydrangea to transfers very badly.

Adaptation

Hydrangea hardly adapts to a new place, therefore it is transplanted only in the most extreme cases. Often the first time after disembarking a shrub is uniform, stops developing, flowering it or slows down, or stops. In most cases, a certain period, the flower adapts independently, rooted, continues to grow up in a normal pace.

If the hydrangea sinnieweds after the transplantation into the open ground after purchase, most likely, the case is in the absence of the usual abundant feeding, which the plant in the store / nursery supplied. Often, the sellers break the flower so that it looks more beautiful and magnificent when selling: it is natural that after entering ordinary land, the hydrangea is distinguished.

In severe cases, not only the absence of flowering, but also the death of the plant is possible. To avoid these sad consequences, it is necessary to make a more comfortable adaptation of the plant. For this:

• fur in the transplantation do not cut off and the old substrate does not shake with them;
• soil, remaining in the store container, mix with garden earth and pour into the well.

First time after planting, feed the flower more abundantly to facilitate the process of adaptation. But gradually reduce the dosage: thus addiction to normal nutrition will pass unnoticed.

Lack of moisture

Hydrangea - the flower is extremely moisture, without water will not last long. Even its name is translated from ancient Greek, like a "water vessel". If there is no moisture, there will be no blend of hydrangea, and the leaves will be born and will be covered. Roots should always be moistened: breathing them is unacceptable.

Let's say more: if the hydrangea does not water in the period of arid summer heat, it can die at all. You understand that there can be no speech about flowering in this case. Recommended frequency of irrigation: once a week in ordinary weather and every three days in drought. Particular attention is recommended to pay a young hydrangea, which has not yet been fulfilled by the year: in this gentle age, the plant for lack of lags is especially sensitive.

If the ground contains a large amount of clay, water less frequently. In a dense substrate, water is often stirred, which is also harmful to the plant, causes rotting roots.

Wrong cropping

Hydrangea should be trimmed very carefully, understanding what and how to do. If with autumn trimming remove the incarnations of future kidneys, next season, bloom is either less lush, or it will not happen at all.

The young hydrangea is not cut to first flowering, and adult - only when it is necessary. In the autumn period, it is not all varieties and types of hydrangea to cut, and we recommend to postpone the procedure at a later time so that the kidneys are damaged by returnable frosts. If the trimming of perennials in principle neglected, buds may not be formed at all;

The procedure requires experience and skills:

• it is necessary to break the bush - otherwise, inflorescences are crushed and become more rare;
• small branches growing inside, require mandatory removal, as they do not bloom, but only thickening the crown;
• for abundant flowering, it is necessary to shorten last year's shoots, leaving no more than 1-3 healthy, strong kidneys on them;
• soothes over 4-6 years no longer give inflorescences, so when pruning them must be deleted.

Important: If the escape is strong and thick, you can leave three kidneys on it, if thin, weak - only one.

With spring trimming, you do not need to remove the shoots of last year's surveillance - strong and healthy. It is on them in the current season and the bulk of the inflorescences will be formed. In the fall, remove only dried buds or broken, damaged branches. Do not need to do the forming trimming after flowering.

Podkord

Garden hydrangea is extremely negatively reacting to overproing. Special damage to the flowering of the plant causes an excess in the soil of nitrogen. This mineral is useful for the rapid growth of greenery, but negatively reflects on the formation of buds.

How to feed correctly:

• in the late spring, make nitrogen for the speedy set of foliage and the growth of young shoots;
• summer nitrogen exclude and apply potash-phosphate additives, which activates the formation of floral buds;
• in the fall, make focus on potassium, which will protect the roots of the plant from freezing in winter.

As a nitrogen-containing drug, we recommend using urea. It is best to dilute the drug with water and potassium sulfate and bring in spring. If the urea is not, the dung alive, divorced with water (1:10). Mineral complexes are better used as a source of potassium and phosphorus.

Tip: When the plant is planted into the ground from the store container after purchase, be sure to adopt the flower root stimulant growth. This measure will help the plant easier to adapt to a new place and root.

Keep in mind that with the help of certain minerals you can control the painting of hydrangea buds. So, lime is useful if the hydrangea is pink: flower petals will become brighter. The addition of alum will give the blue tint to buds.

Shelter for winter

If the hydrangea is properly due to winter, the kidneys and roots can penetrate it. Blossoms in the next vegetation, therefore, do not see. To avoid problems, in the fall, even to the cold weather, begin to prepare a flower for winter. If the climate is relatively warm, it will be enough to trim the inflorescences, after which the shrub agrofibular is covered. If winter in the area of \u200b\u200bfrosty and long, it is necessary to strengthen the hydrangea, and it is necessary to emphasize the roots.

Leave without any shelter for the winter the flower is unacceptable: moving in this case can be critical, destructive. Even the frost-resistant blurred hydrangea without protection should not be: it is better to take preventive measures than to allow the filming of the roots.

Pests and Diseases

The causes of the absence of flowering can be associated with diseases, pest damage. Typically, most of the infections are transferred through the planting material. That is why the seedlings of hydrangea is best acquired in nurseries proven and reliable, and not in the market for private owners.

In addition, often diseases occur if the plant is contained in conditions of high humidity. Although hydrangea and water lover, but excess moisture inevitably leads to the development of rot, reproduction of fungus. The situation is exacerbated by the population of landings.

Chlorosis is one of the most often affecting hydrangea diseases. Pathology is manifested as the yellowed of foliage, but can lead in launched cases and to the absence of flowering. Chlorosis occurs due to the metabolic disorders in the tissues of the plant: it usually occurs due to lack of iron. To cure the flower, it is necessary to feed it with iron-containing fertilizers, spray with appropriate drugs. Such processing is at least the effect and gives, but not instant: you have to wait for some time until the shrub acquires usual color.

May hit Hingtonia and malicious fungus: Fortunately, it rarely happens quite rarely. Typically, fungal diseases are associated with those or other rotches: root, stem. Prevention and treatment are based on the use of copper-containing drugs (for example, HOM).

For abundant flowering of hydrangea, the good development of its root system is very important. If the roots are weak, it is unlikely that in the near future it turns out to enjoy beautiful bright buds. Long the roots form plants after landing and perturbed fertilizers.

Carefully select a landing space, since in the case of an incorrect choice of flowering does not see. Well, the transfer of hydrangea tolerates extremely difficult.

Do not land a flower under the roof of the house: in the spring falling snow or icicles can break his branches together with the embossed kidneys. Thus, bloom will be much less abundant.

The area in the garden, where hydrangea is planted, should have the soil rather loose permeable. The clay dense substrate in this case is not suitable: it is predetermined by sand and peat.

If you are inexperienced gardener, we advise to start to stop at the Grandflower grade hydrangea. This variety is tested by time: its flowering is quite predictable, expected and practically guaranteed with competent care. In addition, the grandflower can be both a blunt and tree - choose any kind of taste.

By landing or transplanting, carefully contact the root of the plant. The root of hydrangea is fragile and brittle: if it is damaged, the process of adaptation will strongly delay. More significant harm in the form of illness, death is possible. Remove the bush from the soil just with the earthen room and maintain the last bottom.

Water flower needed regularly and quite abundantly. This procedure should be paid to the first year of the flower life, as well as in a strong summer drought. After irrigations and rains, we strongly recommend the ground in the garden to loosen. Thus, the permeableness of the soil will be restored, which is important for the flower. At the same time, weeds will become less.

We learned why hydrangea refuses to bloom and what to do with this problem. As you can see, the reasons are likely different: first it is necessary to accurately understand what caused the absence of buds in a particular case. And only then decide what measures to do. This approach will give their positive fruits at the most shortest time, and will return the flowering of your favorite.
