And for gardeners, this flower is an evergreen and the most unpretentious inhabitant of sunny hillocks, rocky hills, green roofs, rutaria, paved paths. Surprisingly, the fleshy leaves filled with juice are able to survive not only in drought conditions, but also in frost.

The size of a stone rose is small, but it multiplies well and forms noticeable arrays on surfaces with any slope, up to vertical ones. And this property is unique. Molodilo is actively used in creating living pictures on the walls of houses and in roof gardening.

Fatty, heavy soils are of little use for juveniles. For them, a sand-humus mixture is selected. To do this, prepare the following composition:

• coarse sand as drainage — 1 part,
• nutritious leaf humus without plant residues — 4 parts,
• wood ash for soil disinfection — ½ part.

Does young grow on black soil? Yes, it grows if there is no stagnant water on the site, but this type of soil is not suitable for placement in containers and in windy places. When exposed to moisture, it is soft, but quickly hardens in dry conditions.

Fleshy petals collected in a rosette are just leaves. The stone rose also blooms unusually. First, she throws out an arrow framed by leaves from the center of the rosette. After that, flowers bloom at the top of the peduncle. In most cases, they have a pink or yellow tint.

In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the pulp of the leaves does not lose elasticity. At the first sign of lethargy, succulents should be watered abundantly or sprayed with a spray bottle at night.

YOUNG IN GARDEN DESIGN

For a garden in the Art Nouveau style, young is an ideal component. Sockets in this case are placed in a clear geometric order against the background of stone or wood mulch.

The second option — a scattering of youth in the middle of the stones. It is suitable for any garden style, be it landscape, regular or modern.

If you are planning to plant greenery on the roof, then the most frost-resistant roofing rejuvenation is most suitable for it.

For vertical gardening of walls, a wooden frame 5-6 cm thick is covered with a mesh,

Put moss or coconut fiber on it.

Cover with soil mixture.

The back is covered with a plywood sheet or moisture-resistant drywall.

Young people are planted between the mesh cells, and two weeks after rooting, a green picture is hung on the wall of a house, barn or fence.

Best of all, the youth is combined with their own kind and relatives-sedums. The best part is that creating a composition does not require you to have special florist skills. In whatever sequence you plant a mixture of succulents, they will always look spectacular.

The combination of young in the foreground and medium-sized flowering perennials in the second looks beautiful.

Old partners of a stone rose are stones with a rough surface. Especially if they have a uniform shade that is different from the color of plants. So, boulders of reddish, beige and dark gray shades are most suitable for green juveniles, light gray and beige stones are chosen for purple varieties, and gray and beige stone surfaces for variegated ones.

If you are thinking of a composition of plants of different shades, choose gray and beige boulders.

Juveniles are propagated by shoots. And to be precise, the plant reproduces itself, and you just need to have time to plant young rosettes 🙂 Up to two dozen of them form over the summer.

The shoots (young rosettes) are transplanted with a small “leg”, on which inconspicuous roots have already formed by spring. I stuck it in the ground, watered it and … forgot.

How beautiful to plant flowers

Let’s forget all the traditional methods of planting flowers and watch the landscape designers at work. Any exhibition of garden design gives at least one non-standard and, at the same time, brilliant idea.

Just like any textured surface has glare and shading, it is desirable to lighten the palette of an ornamental garden in some places, on the contrary, add a depth effect in others. Only in this way will the landscape that opens up to the eye acquire expressiveness, and some drama.
