Santolina is silver in my garden

in flowers •  7 years ago 

Greetings, my subscribers and blog guests!

And we again meet in my garden, I want to introduce one more guest.

Santolina silvery - this is an evergreen shrub, according to the declared parameters can be from 10 to 60 cm and more. There are several types - different in height, shape, size of the flower.
It prefers sunny places, loose soil, so that there is no stagnation of water, abundant watering in the first time after planting, and also
requires shelter for the winter, not only the upper, but the soil around it, so that the roots do not become frozen, you can fertilize with a small amount of nitrogen, otherwise it will not bloom.

I had it accidentally ... we went for pear seedlings, and the seller gave us three twigs as a gift, I recently do not usually buy plants without first studying the information, but it turned out so.
I sat down ... I dream ... I want a low-income garden, and again I need to cover up, there are not enough roses for me ...
I think I'll put it, maybe they will not get used to it, they gradually went into growth, but only 2 bushes did not bloom this year, they grew a small size cm 25-30 ... Such pretty silver cats and leaves are delicate. I hope with proper care and shelter and will continue to please me. I plan to multiply and make a curb for the flower garden, it's not hard - you can try it.

From santolina can be formed bonsai, also suitable for hedges.
