And again, Hello my dear readers!
I'm glad you found a moment to come and find out what do you do today my friends - Masha and Zhenya.
If you remember, yesterday, they excitedly examined the flowers under a familiar name - the tulips, and I learned about them many interesting things.
Today they plan flowers the next letter of the alphabet - "U".
But at home there is a very interesting plant, which is referred to as "Us gold".
Making the morning with all their simple childish things, our friends had set a pot of flowers and admiring him plenty, he set to work.
They had to write a report for school yunnatskih circle, which they visited while studying in school.
Maybe they would have done something else more interesting on summer vacation, but they promised her teacher, Maria Ivanovna to prepare for the beginning of the school year this floral Alphabet.
In principle, they liked it so they almost every day we studied and described the flowers.
And now Eugene, sticking the tip of my tongue, diligently sketched a flower in an album, and Masha aloud read everything found on the Internet about this flower, along the way, making notes on a notebook piece of paper.
• You know, Eugene, but Golden mustache is not so difficult to grow at home, - she said to her friend, even we'll be able to handle it.
• Imagine it can be grown not only in the room or Conservatory, but also on the street, just where the warm climate.
• That, and we have it in the garden to plant? - surprised Eugene.
• And why not? We still live in the South. And the climate wet enough for that not as much water is necessary. But he does not tolerate temperature below 0 degrees.
• In nature, it is a perennial, twine plant, with large, alternately arranged leaves that overlap each other so that somewhat resemble a flower.
• Sound familiar? - bending over the flower, asked Masha. And pay attention to the color of the leaves - on the back it has a purple hue, and the top - no, but it is necessary to change the lighting, make it bright as the upper side of the leaf will also get the same shade.
• The flower grows to a height of over 30 inches, but in breadth, its length can be even more meters. It is best suited for him-drained soil or loam.
• Well with drainage we have no problems - said the girl. - Yes, and as I noted, he and no drainage is perfectly survives. How it was that mom brought home from work a few sprigs with the leaves for medicines, but not everyone used and then found that the leaves began to appear, and thin roots. See how handsome he was? with pride she said.
• It is a pity that he have never bloomed, because it blooms only in the garden. Here are his large whitish-pink flowers:
• Isn't that beautiful blooms?
• Yeah, agreed Eugene and began diligently to strike it. Come on, tell me more.
• Well, I tell you, ' continued his friend, and part-time teacher - it is propagated by cuttings, here is how we did it, or seeds.
• Seeds after harvest should be stored in the envelope in a cool and dry place.
• When propagating cuttings, it is necessary to cut it from the plant, removing from the process all the leaves except the top 3-4, and plant deep in the ground, pre-watering it with water. When they are rooted, can be transplanted into a flower pot or planter, and the garden is generally better to plant the cuttings where the plant will continue to grow.
• Basically, Golden mustache plant wall planters to beautifully down its branches.
• A very big value it has in medicine, it is part of many drugs.
• That's all for today we're done. Now all you arrange in our album. This we can do and in the evening, and now went to take a walk, you can even Funnel ride, and he has stagnated.
And children have ran away, hence, you and it's time to say goodbye.
Up to new meetings!
Thank you for your attention!
