Crush and scatter around the yucca. She doesn’t need anything more
This is one of the most frost -resistant and least demanding plant species. In Poland, it can be successfully grown in gardens and on plots. Naturally, it comes from the USA, but has been grown in Europe for years as a decorative plant.
Garden yucca flowers are monumental and will delight everyone. However, it may happen that for some reason Juka will stop blooming. In such a situation, it is best to use home -made fertilizer stimulating the plant. The lady from Castorama showed me her way to fertilize garden yucca. All you need is egg shells. According to directly citing the Agricultural Research Service (USDA), dried and crushed shells contain about 95 percent. calcium carbonate. This ingredient releases into the soil reduces its acidity and improves the structure.
. All you have to do is cook a few eggs, choose them that the skin and dry them thoroughly. You can do this by putting shells on a sunny windowsill or in the oven. Then grind the shells thoroughly (you can use the mixer for this) to get the texture of the flour. Spread the powder prepared in this way around the garden yucca within a radius of about 15 centimeters.
Calcium contained in egg shells will greatly affect the condition of the leaves. It will improve the absorption of vitamins and minerals, and also strengthen the roots. In addition, calcium in garden yucca care supports the plant’s immune system and will protect it against attacks of fungal diseases. Calcium will also stimulate and improve flowering.
Fertilizer that the shell after eggs is applied to the garden yucca in spring (preferably in May), as well as in the summer to strengthen the tied inflorescences.
How to care for a garden yuka in the garden?
Juka garden is a relatively easy plant to care, but it requires some attention so that it can grow healthy and bloom beautifully. First of all, Juka needs a sunny position and permeable soil. Too high moisture of the substrate can lead to rotting roots, so it is important to avoid excessive watering. During the growing season, from spring to autumn, the yka should be watered moderately, allowing the soil to dry between watering. In winter, watering should be kept to a minimum.
In addition, it is worth remembering the growth period. Multi -component mineral fertilizers can be used, designed for flowering plants, according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. It is also important to remove faded inflorescences so that the plant does not lose energy to set seeds. Juka is a frost -resistant plant, but in the case of very harsh winters, young plants are worth covering with agrotextile or straw to protect them from freezing.
