What flowers are replanted in the fall at the dacha?

Autumn is a wonderful time to replant plants, including indoor plants. If you replant in the fall, the flowers will be provided with good conditions for growth and flowering, because some indoor plants bloom even in the winter cold. When plants are transplanted into new soil rich in microelements, they grow better and become stronger.

However, not all flowers are recommended to be replanted in the autumn. Which plants need to be replanted in autumn, and which are best left until spring? Below you can find tips and tricks for replanting indoor flowers.

Transplanting perennial flowers in autumn

Perennial are flowers that grow and bloom in one place for more than two years. However, even the most unpretentious plants begin to “grow old” after a few seasons: they bloom less often, large flowers become smaller, and the plant itself grows to enormous sizes. Don't rush to get rid of your favorite species, I'll tell you how to bring them back to life.

How to choose the time of year

There is a widespread belief among experienced gardeners that in conditions of moderate winters and hot summers, perennials can be replanted almost all year round. But I wouldn't recommend doing that. A plant transplanted at the wrong time requires high-quality and labor-intensive care, frequent watering and fertilizing. While classic care for perennials is simple and takes minimal time.

Transplanting perennial flowers in the fall is a proven and long-established option. The purposes of such a transplant are propagation and rejuvenation of the plant. Depending on the type, early transplantation and main transplantation are distinguished. So, peonies are replanted in August, most other perennials - in September-October. The success of transplantation largely depends on timing: the plant must have time to take root in the ground before the onset of cold weather. When planting perennials in late autumn, do not forget to mulch the beds with pine needles or sawdust so that young shoots do not die from frost.

Why is it best to plant perennials in the fall?

Planting perennial flowers in the fall is an opportunity to get the gorgeous result of a rich flowering flower bed with relatively little material and labor costs. The reason for this is that plants planted in the fall are easier to adapt to and harden off during the cold winter months. With the onset of spring, having gone through the process of getting used to new conditions and having grown stronger, perennials are ready to direct all their efforts to intensive growth and abundant flowering.

Aconita, clematis and adonis are beautifully flowering perennials that show themselves in all their glory precisely during autumn planting: after wintering in the ground, they take root better, grow and delight with flowering

Another, no less significant reason for planting perennial flowers in the fall is the opportunity for the gardener to devote more time to this process: soberly assess his desires and capabilities, more carefully consider advantageous color combinations, and also prepare the soil and planting material. In addition, soil warmed up after summer sun rays is easier to dig. Soil moistened by seasonal rains will not require watering after planting.

In order to enjoy the flowering of perennials the very next year after planting, you need to choose express varieties for autumn planting. Planning to plant a garden with beautiful flowers in the spring, in an effort to fill empty flower beds, gardeners feverishly buy everything, not always thinking about the expediency of such purchases. Therefore, it is more advisable to fill the flower beds even before the onset of cold weather, so that with the arrival of spring you can already admire their beauty.

Frequency of replanting perennials

How often to replant perennials depends on the type of root system of the plant. Perennial asters and ferns have a creeping root system; replanting them more often than once every 9-10 years is not recommended. The compact root system - like that of hostas, peonies and daylilies - gives the plant the opportunity to bloom well in one place for 11-12 years. Phlox with fibrous rhizomes need to be replanted every 4-5 years. For plants with a taproot system, transplantation is not recommended at all. This process is traumatic for them and often leads to the death of the plant. Such crops are renewed every 5 years by sowing seeds.

Don't start work on a hot day. Delay replanting until cool and cloudy weather. Reduce to a minimum the time the plant is outside the soil. To do this, start replanting by preparing a new landing site. On the eve of work, add compost and mineral fertilizers to the soil, dig it up, and water the transplanted plant generously. Make new holes, taking into account the size of the plant - the roots should not be crowded. Carefully cut into the soil around the flower.

In order not to drop an overgrown plant, ask your relatives for help - by planting the plant with four hands, you will reduce the risk of injuring the flower to a minimum. Be careful not to damage the roots. Shake off any remaining soil from the roots and trim the stems of the plant with pruning shears. This stage is necessary for the transplanted flower to devote all its efforts to restoring the root system in a new location. Gently separate the roots with your hands, while at the same time getting rid of diseased or pest-infested plants. If the rhizomes are very tangled, they can be carefully separated with a sharp knife.

We transplant viable plants into the prepared holes, fill them with soil, water them abundantly and loosen the soil a little to avoid compaction. This completes the autumn replanting of perennial flowers.

There is nothing complicated about this process. The main thing is to observe the transplant deadlines and treat the flowers with care and not injure them. Then next spring the plants will again delight you with abundant flowering, large and bright inflorescences.

How to do a transplant?

It is better to replant plants in two stages: first prepare the flowers, and then carry out the replanting itself.

First stage. Preparing for transplant

To begin, the plants are removed from the pots. To do this, they are watered abundantly. Some time later, the pot is turned over and knocked on the bottom so that the plant separates. You can first separate the soil from the pot using a knife.

Then you should tackle the root system. Small roots are untangled, rotten parts are cut off and sprinkled with crushed charcoal. The bulbs must be handled very carefully. If they are damaged, the plant may die.

Now we need to take care of the container. A new pot is usually bought a little larger and deeper than the previous one, three to four centimeters, but no more. If it significantly exceeds the previous capacity, there will be a strong risk of rotting of the root system. In this case, more drainage is poured than usual.

What flowers are replanted in the fall at the dacha?

And one more piece of advice: do not leave dug up phloxes lying in the open air for a long time. Plant them the same day and do not allow the roots to dry out.

If you have chosen a late-flowering variety, then the time to plant it is the second half of September/the first weeks of October. Phlox should take root in the new planting site. Mulching with peat or tree bark is welcome; you can also cover the plants for the winter with lutrasil or other covering material.

Perennial gaillardia, planting and care

The time for planting solar gaillardia seedlings is mid-August/first half of September. It is recommended to replant it every 4-5 years; this process involves propagation of the flower by dividing the roots. It is better to do this in September, from the first days until the end of the month.

It’s not for nothing that gaillardia is called the sunny flower. She not only looks like the sun herself, but also loves him. Therefore, when planting or transplanting, choose an open, sunny place.

In fact, these perennial flowers reproduce well by self-seeding, but if you want to share them (while maintaining its varietal characteristics), for example, with a neighbor in the country, then the option of dividing the rhizomes will be the most relevant.

Replanting hostas in the fall to another location

You should know that hosts do not like transfers, so they do this only if absolutely necessary. In addition, know that for the first 1-2 years after transplantation, its decorative effect will leave much to be desired.

But if your old hosta is too thick or you decide to share it with your neighbors, you will have to disturb the plant.

Hosta, rich in leaves, can be planted and divided in early autumn - from the last days of August until the second half of September. Before the onset of cold weather, the plant must strengthen in the soil and send out new roots. When calculating the timing of transplantation, keep in mind that under favorable conditions, the host will need at least a month to grow new roots.

When choosing a planting or transplanting site, remember that hosta does not tolerate the scorching rays of the sun - plant it in the shade.

Hosta can also be planted or divided in the spring, but autumn replanting is most recommended for the Tokudama and Siebold varieties.

Muscari - planting and replanting in autumn

Delicate perennial muscari flowers are somewhat reminiscent of hyacinth. They are often called fly hyacinth.

If the flowers have been growing in one place for 5 years, then it is recommended to replant them before the end of October - this is the deadline for the middle zone. And in Kuban it’s not scary to replant muscari in November. Don't worry, the little bulbs will survive the cold winter just fine.

It’s easy to find a place to plant muscari - after all, it blooms when there are no leaves on the trees yet and other plants, even if they want, will not be able to block it from the sun.

Transplanting or planting daylilies in autumn

This long-lived perennial can grow and bloom in one place for 25 years. It can be planted and replanted from spring until the end of September. It is important that the plant has time to take root in the new place; for this it will need at least 30 days.

It is also recommended to insulate it (protect it with covering material) for the winter if it promises to be cold.

Every 5 or 6 years, these perennial garden flowers need to be replanted to renew the plants. At the same time, division of the daylily roots is carried out. It is better to do this in early autumn, before the 20th of September in the middle zone and until the end of October in Kuban.

Planting hyacinths in autumn

Fragrant curly hyacinth is recommended to be planted in autumn. In warm regions of our country, this process can be carried out from the last weeks of September until mid-October.

It is important not to plant hyacinths too early, because these perennial flowers will have time not only to take root, but also to germinate. As for Kuban specifically, if the weather is good, the planting period can be extended until the second half of November.

Delphinium perennial - autumn planting

It is preferable to replant perennial delphinium at the very beginning of the growing season, approximately the last days of April/the first week of May. But we are talking about an autumn transplant, so this plant can be subjected to a change of residence, as well as dividing the roots, in September-October, depending on your region. If everything is done correctly, the delphinium will delight you with early flowering.

Tulips - planting in autumn, timing

It is recommended to plant these graceful perennial garden flowers in the fall so that they bloom much earlier than their “relatives” planted in the spring. To start the process of active flower development, tulip bulbs require a kind of cold shock. That is why tulips should be planted from the second half of September until the end of October - this applies to the warm regions of Russia.

What perennial flowers to plant, replant or divide in the fall

Daffodils

Many perennial flowers are worth planting in the fall for lush shoots. For example, a narcissist.

We plant the bulbs from early to mid-September. Compositions made from small groups planted in bouquets look beautiful. We deepen the bulbs to triple the height. Narcissus does not need shelter for the winter.

From September 10 to October we carry out autumn planting of all bulbous flowers: muscari, tulips, crocuses.

Photo: Narcissus is a beautiful flower associated with the ancient Greek legend of a handsome but narcissistic young man.

herbaceous peony

Photo: We recommend trimming peonies in early September.

The ideal time to divide peony roots is early September. We trim the stems of the plant, leaving about a third of the length above the soil. If the bush is large and large, then first we carefully dig in a circle, retreating from the base of the bush to the bayonet of a shovel. We act carefully so as not to damage the roots. Then we pick up the roots and take them out of the ground. Shake off and rinse under running water. This will make it easier for us to examine the root for infections, diseases and damage. If there are sores or rot, cut off the damaged area with a sharp, disinfected instrument to healthy tissue. Next, divide the root into parts, break it with your hands or cut it with a knife. We dry the cut areas a little and treat them with brilliant green. On each division we leave at least 3-7 growth buds and some roots.

We make the planting hole large, at least 50 cm. We fertilize the earth with organic matter or universal fertilizers in granules. The subtlety of planting a peony is that the root collar of the plant needs to be buried exactly 5 cm below ground level. If you lower it lower, the plant will not be able to set growth buds. If it is higher, these buds will freeze out in winter.

Phlox

It is best to divide in late August - early September. This plant needs time to take root well. The rhizome of phlox is easily divided by hand into small bushes. We plant them at a distance of 50 cm from each other. For the winter, young cuttings can be sprinkled with a layer of peat or covered with spruce branches. Mature bushes do not need shelter.

Photo: Phlox is an ornamental garden plant. Cultivated all over the world.

Brunner

The beginning of September is the ideal time to transplant and divide brunnera bushes. We choose a cool day for transplantation; it is best to plant in the evening. We dig up the bushes and divide the rhizomes with our hands. On a new cutting we leave at least one bud for growth, preferably more. We dig holes to the size of the root. We plant without deepening the root collar: we place it at the same level as the plant grew before. We pour plenty of settled water and mulch the ground around the plantings.

Photo: Brunnera does not require much attention, but pleases with bright leaves and neat flowers.

Khosta

The plant can be replanted from August to November. But it is advisable to divide the bushes one month before the real frost. The time is different in each area, but ideally this is done in September. There are some hosta varieties that only tolerate autumn planting.

Photo: Hosta attracts attention with its bright leaves.

Dicentra (Broken Heart)

All manipulations with it are best done at the end of August, beginning of September. To provide time for it to take root well. We prepare the bed for planting in advance. Be sure to lay a layer of drainage and add organic fertilizers. We do not deepen the root collar. Dicentra loves moist, loose and nutritious soil. Take this into account when choosing a landing site. For the winter, sprinkle the young bushes with a layer of peat or compost, or cover them with spruce branches.

Photo: Dicentra flowers resemble miniature hearts.

Heuchera and Heucherella

Replant and divide after flowering. Delenki planted in autumn must be covered for the winter. This is an evergreen plant: its leaves do not die, but remain green even under the snow. In the spring, immediately after the snow melts, decorative foliage will decorate the spring garden.

Photo: Heuchera is a plant with bright leaves, created through selective breeding.

Loosestrife point

The most convenient time for dividing and planting is the second half of September - early October. An adult plant must be divided every 3 to 4 years. We choose a cool day for planting; it is better if it rained the day before. We plant in moist soil without deepening the root collar. After planting, water generously and mulch the soil. For the winter, you can insulate it a little by covering the top with spruce branches or sprinkling it with a thick layer of humus, compost or peat. As a rule, in central Russia, even young bushes do not need shelter.

Photo: China is considered the birthplace of loosestrife culture.

Astilbe

It is better to divide astilbe in late August - early September. Before planting, we nourish the soil with organic fertilizers: compost, humus and peat. Add a little of everything and mix with garden soil. The rhizome of astilbe is easily divided by hand. We plant without deepening the root collar. We compact the soil around the plant with our hands and water it abundantly. It is advisable to mulch, and when winter approaches, insulate it by sprinkling a thick layer of peat or humus on top. Only young bushes that are planted in the fall need shelter for the winter. We do not cover adult bushes.

Photo: Plus astilbe - long flowering.

Chistets woolly (Hare ears)

It is better to replant and divide in September - October. Grows well in open shade. Easily tolerates transplantation. Propagates by self-sowing.

Photo: The leaves of the plant resemble the ears of a hare. The similarity with the animal gave the woolly chick a second name: hare's ears.

Transplanting perennial flowers in garden beds

Perennial ornamental plants are rightfully loved by many owners of personal plots and are actively used by them in landscaping.
Since these crops do not need to be sown annually, seedlings are grown and transferred to a permanent place, flowering and decorative foliage perennials significantly save the grower’s time and effort. All of them are divided into two large groups:

winterers, that is, those who are not afraid of the winter cold and survive it in their flowerbed or alpine hill;
not overwintering, requiring annual digging and storage in special conditions until the next growing season.

The second group includes dahlias, gladioli, and other species, most of which are bulbous. These cultures require a personal approach. But what about those that do not need to be removed from the ground every year and grow well in one place for several years?

Not a single green plant can do without attention. Even the most unpretentious perennials are no exception. At first, the plants delight with good growth and excellent decorativeness. But after some time the gardener notices that:

perennials bloom less;
the once lush clumps in the center are thinning out;
plants gradually take over neighboring areas.

In this case, the perennial crop requires transplantation and rejuvenation. How, when and with what frequency is it better to carry out this procedure?

Frequency of replanting perennial ornamental crops

Each perennial has its own time when it is time for it to leave its home.
The shortest interval between transplants is for feathery carnations, coreopsis, pyrethrum, some varieties of perennial violets and primrose (perennial primrose planting and care with photo). The same applies to thyme and oregano, which are often planted in flowerbeds and mixborders. After 2–3 years, these plants need to be replanted. The reason for the rapid loss of decorativeness is that, as they age, the roots of plants begin to rise above the ground level, and a bald patch of last year's dried roots and stems forms in the center of the curtain. This effect leads to a deterioration in the nutrition of the living parts of the perennial; its development occurs only on the periphery and gradually fades. Therefore, adult clumps are periodically dug up, carefully divided, and the resulting parts are planted, sprinkled with fertile soil on top.

Beloved by many for their luxurious aroma and elegant flowers, white lilies, other decorative varieties of lilies, as well as irises with a shallow root system are replanted a year or two less often.

If this is not done, after 4-5 years the scaly bulbs of lilies and rhizomes of irises are so buried in the soil that the sprouts that form on them turn out to be weak and refuse to bloom.

Up to 6–7 years, hostas, herbaceous peonies, perennial phlox, astilbe and delphiniums, unpretentious bright daylilies and other crops grow in one place without any visible problems, in which, when dug up, powerful rhizomes are found that provide the plants with everything they need for growth and flowering for many years. When transplanting a large specimen, you can and should disassemble it to obtain young planting material.

How is transplantation different from transshipment?

In addition to transplantation, there is another way to move plants from one container to another. It is called transshipment. How does it differ from a transplant and in what cases is it needed? Transshipment is usually done for:

rapidly growing young plants;
large plants, when the risk of their death during transplantation is too great;
suffering from the destruction of a clod of earth.

When transshipping, only change the smaller pot to a larger one, without replacing the soil. The roots are removed from the pot along with a lump of earth, but are not cleared of soil. The entire lump is placed in a new pot and only a little soil is added on top to make the flowers more spacious.

Unlike replanting, transshipment can be done for any indoor plants. This is especially true for those flowers that “fall asleep” in winter. It is better to move them from cramped containers to more spacious ones. Replanting in the usual way, if there is no need, such flowers are not necessary. And transshipment will only give advantages: the roots are not disturbed and there is an opportunity for growth and development.

When is the best time to replant perennials?

Transplantation and propagation by dividing rhizomes is carried out in spring or autumn:

In the first case, plants best tolerate the procedure carried out from the second half of April to the first days of May.
The second time it is possible to move the perennials to a new location from August to September.

The choice of one option or another depends on the planted crop. It is better to replant plants that bloom in the second half of summer with the onset of warm weather, and, conversely, when buds appear in the spring, replanting is postponed until autumn.

Many gardeners prefer to devote the end of summer and beginning of autumn to caring for perennials for the simplest and most obvious reason. During this period, they have more free time for such pleasant, but rather troublesome work.

However, experienced flower growers associate serious risks with autumn transplantation. If you are a little late, then perennials that did not take root again before the cold weather may suffer in winter or even die. Therefore, the procedure is always consistent with the long-term weather forecast, taking into account the frost resistance of crops and the climatic characteristics of the region. It is better if during transplantation there is dry weather with an air temperature of at least 12–15 degrees.

It’s too late to replant: what to do

If winter is early, this is not a reason to despair. There are chances to save the flowers, and they are quite high. Whenever possible, it is enough to dig up planting material on the site. Having dug in, the seedlings are covered for the winter.

If the soil is very frozen, you should do the following:

sprinkle the seedlings with peat and store them in the refrigerator;
store seedlings in sawdust in a cellar or basement;
Place the seedlings in a box and place them on a cold windowsill.

Sometimes circumstances force you to act against the rules. But common sense should always be present in decision making. If all the deadlines have passed, but the weather permits, you just need to plant the plants.

Features of transplanting plants with different measles systems

Perennial plants with a shallow root system or fibrous roots that do not go deep underground are easy to dig up and replant. Even the loss of some part in this case will not harm, since this is how the culture reproduces. The above fully applies to violets, pyrethrum and cornflower, rudbeckia and echinacea, numerous species of ornamental and spicy plants belonging to the Lamiaceae family, for example, monarda, oregano, lofant, lemon balm and mint.

It is best to replant such plants in the fall, when they are clearly visible, and the dried above-ground part can be trimmed without regret, and damaged or rotten rhizomes can be removed. Large clumps are divided so that the resulting parts take root after planting and produce new shoots.

Do the same with irises, peonies, lilies of the valley, and bergenia. The roots of these plants differ in appearance, but if there are potential growth points, the divisions will soon sprout independently.

The most difficult thing is to replant perennial crops with a taproot system. Examples include Persian poppies and dicentras, lupins, delphiniums and aquilegias, which are extremely sensitive to root damage, but do not grow as much as their counterparts with fibrous rhizomes. Therefore, it is better not to disturb such crops unnecessarily, but only carefully separate the daughter plants that form at the base of the rosette.

What flowers can be planted in the fall: 45 names of flowers to plant in the fall.

The second half of summer and autumn are a great time to plant flowers for autumn. We, at Dom-v-sadu.ru

We love all the work related to flowers, so we made a selection of which flowers can be planted in the fall. It will be useful for both experienced and novice flower growers. Many gardeners are afraid to plant plants before winter, but this is completely in vain. So, why is it better to plant flowers in the fall?

Why is planting flowers in autumn good?

Plants planted in autumn grow more hardened, more resistant to diseases and pests, and are not afraid of spring frosts.
Plants planted and sown in autumn grow faster in spring, develop better and produce more abundant flowering.
In the fall, we have much more free time in the garden and garden; this will allow us to leisurely choose a suitable place for a flower garden, if we are just planning one, as well as to choose a better place for specific flowers in ready-made flower beds. As I previously wrote in an article about creating a mixborder, it is better to first draw a plan for the future flower garden on a sheet of paper, and then start creating it.
In the fall, we can properly prepare the soil in flower beds and other flower beds, whereas in the spring, with a heavy workload of planned work, this is not always possible.

What flowers can be planted in autumn?

In autumn you can plant annual flowers, regular perennials and bulbous ones. Of the wide variety of all these plants, cold-resistant annuals, bulbous flowers, and some perennials are most often planted before winter.

Annual flowers:

asters,
phlox drummonda,
godetia grandiflora,
cosmea,
Iberis,
cornflower,
matthiola,
Lavatera,
mignonette,
Chinese carnation,
alyssum,
self-seeding poppy,
malcomia maritima,
clarkia marigold,
calendula,
Adonis.

When planting in autumn, you need to take into account the fact that some seeds may not germinate, so sowing needs to be done more often than we do in the spring. It is also very important to sow the seeds in frozen soil in late autumn. The area is prepared in advance, dug up, loosened, grooves or holes are made. The sown seeds are sprinkled with previously prepared soil, which should be stored indoors. Or you can cover the seeds with purchased ready-made soil. If you sow seeds in still warm soil, they may germinate and then die from frost. The sown seeds can be covered with mulch of fallen leaves or hay.

What perennial flowers to plant in the fall:

oriental poppy,
hosta,
Heuchera,
alpine aster,
aquilegia,
buzulnik,
delphinium,
aconite,
primrose,
lupine,
dicentra,
spurge,
bell,
gaillardia,
chamomile,
linen.

In addition, in the fall you can plant roses, clematis, and peonies.

Seeds of perennial flowers, as well as annual ones, are sown in late autumn, in previously prepared furrows, after the ground has frozen. cover with dry sand on top. And the planting of seedlings and cuttings of perennial flowers takes place in September.

Bulbous flowers are especially popular among gardeners. There are species and varieties that bloom very early, when there is still snow. It looks very beautiful!

What flowers should I plant in the fall? Planting spring-blooming bulbous flowers is a must. We recommend planting bulbous plants in the fall:

Do not plant before winter:

They will not withstand low winter temperatures and will die.

If you are afraid that the planted flower bulbs will be eaten by mice in winter, which very often happens, I recommend planting imperial hazel grouse bulbs next to them. They repel rodents, thereby protecting the planted bulbs of other plants.

Bulbous plants are planted 30 days before the onset of frost. This way they will have time to take root in the soil, but the sprouts will not yet begin to grow. Before planting, the bulbs are disinfected in potassium permanganate or fungicides. After drying, the bulbs are planted in the soil. But it’s best to take into account the recommendations on the timing of autumn planting bulbs specifically for each flower. You can find out about this here: When to plant tulips, daffodils, crocuses and other bulbs in the fall. In addition to all the colors listed. in the fall they begin dividing and replanting many plants. These are irises, peonies, daylilies, phlox, rudbeckias, delphiniums. The choice of what flowers you can plant in the fall is huge! Choose the flowers that you like and decorate your garden.

Autumn planting of flower perennials - deadlines

Rhizomatous perennials sold in pots or containers can be planted as long as the soil is not frozen

It happens that it was not possible to plant or replant flower perennials on the site in a timely manner. Either the parcel with the ordered seedlings was delayed, or the weather confused the plans, or some other reason prevented us from doing it on time. Will the plants have time to take root if they are planted later?

Experienced gardeners know that calendar autumn and actual autumn come at different times . And the usual recommendations are given according to the average norm derived from many years of experience. It is clear that following these standards is a guarantee of success.

But it is also necessary to make allowances for climatic conditions in general, and for the weather forecast for the coming autumn, whether it will be warm or cold, dry or rainy.

The condition of the soil should not be ignored. Even under early snowfall, the ground can remain loose and soft. In this case, it is better to plant the plants than to exhaust them and yourself by organizing winter storage.

If the soil caught by the first frosts is lifted with a shovel, the seedlings are buried by warming the soil indoors or using purchased soil. The main thing is to properly cover the roots.

Rhizomatous perennials, sold in pots or containers, can be planted before the soil freezes, providing shelter from upcoming frosts. But those plants that have an open root system must either be planted early so that they have time to take root, or this event must be postponed until the first warm days of spring.

Stimulants are often used when planting seedlings. But in the fall it is unnecessary to use them: the plants are already falling asleep, and the drugs are more likely to do harm than bring any benefit.

Based on the weather, the issue of watering newly planted plants is resolved. If cold weather has already arrived, or is on the threshold, watering is contraindicated. If there are still more than 3 days left before the cold weather, moderate watering will be appropriate.

What and how to plant in the fall?

First of all, these are early flowering perennials. They are planted before winter so that after the cold weather ends they will delight the eye with the first colorful flowers of spring. The task is made easier by the fact that they have good frost resistance, so even if planted late, they do not create any special problems.

, small bulbous plants (crocuses, muscari, snowdrops, scillas) should be planted starting from the 20th of August until the second half of September. But even late bulbs are best planted if the soil is not yet frozen, since it will be very difficult to preserve them until spring.

Tulips, daffodils, hyacinths - deal with them as in the previous case. But if, nevertheless, the delay turns out to be significant, and it is absolutely impossible to plant the bulbs directly in open ground, they can be preserved until spring by planting them in containers and placing them in a cool room.

Bergenia , owner of a superficial root system. It tolerates replanting well at any time, but in case of late planting, it needs to be well covered with mulch and then with spruce branches.

Brunnera is unpretentious and frost-resistant. It takes root well even when planted in late autumn. If frosts are expected, the planted plants should be properly hilled. In spring, excess soil is simply raked to the side.

Lungwort , it is usually planted by transshipment, so the timing is determined by the condition of the soil: while it is possible to dig a hole of the required size. The planted bushes must be covered with spruce branches.

The herbaceous peony does not like planting too late. The deadline is the end of September (mid-October in the south) with a warm autumn. If it was not possible to plant within this time frame, the rhizomes are stored in the basement until spring, buried in a nutrient substrate.

Primroses are distinguished by a huge variety of varieties and species, which have different requirements for planting dates. However, with transshipment and subsequent light shelter, most of them overwinter safely, even those planted on the eve of frost.

Summer flowers, in relation to autumn planting, can be divided into two groups according to winter hardiness. Heat-loving ones are stored until spring, frost-resistant ones are planted.

It is impossible to specifically list perennials that bloom in summer; we will have to limit ourselves to the most popular among gardeners, experienced and beginners.

Aquilegia (columbine, eagle, elf's slipper) generally does not tolerate transplantation, so late seedlings are left until spring. It is better to sow seeds just before winter.

Astilbe is extremely unpretentious. You can plant before frost, followed by hilling.

Delphinium , although it is unpretentious and cold-resistant, is capricious when transplanted. Transshipment can be carried out until the second half of autumn, but dividing the bush is postponed until spring.

Irises , despite their cold resistance, are replanted no later than September - early October if the weather forecast is good. Otherwise, you need to wait for spring, planting them in containers and placing them in a cool room.

Daylilies come in a variety of varieties and hybrids, and each of them requires compliance with its own conditions. It is this factor that determines the possibility of late planting. If there is the slightest doubt, the rhizomes are planted in containers, where they are kept until spring at a low temperature.

Lilies can withstand replanting during any growing season, but heat-loving hybrids are not planted before winter. They are stored in a cool room, sprinkled with peat or sawdust. The awakened bulbs are planted in pots with suitable soil and kept in a warm place.

Monarda easily tolerates transplantation at any time. But you should be careful with varietal plants: they may not be suitable for autumn planting.

Roses - the deadline for planting is three or four weeks before the onset of persistent cold weather, the exact time is determined based on local conditions. It is better to bury late seedlings in trenches and cover them well.

Phlox are planted before the onset of the final cold weather. Plantings are mulched and covered with brushwood or spruce branches.

It is customary to plant autumn flowers in the spring, but most gardeners prefer to purchase planting material precisely when it is clear what exactly the plant is.

Perennial asters are replanted and handled until the soil freezes.

Chrysanthemums are divided into two large groups: large- and small-flowered. The former in any case spend the winter indoors.

Plants with small flowers can be transplanted at any time and at any stage of development. You can plant them even after frost, if a thaw suddenly occurs.

If it so happens that all the planting deadlines have passed unambiguously: an early severe winter, a critically late shipment, the struggle continues with other methods: • make the most of the opportunity to bury the seedlings in the garden, using purchased soil and covering them well; • placed in bags with holes and covered with peat or sawdust; • placed in containers with soil and stored in a frost-free room.

What flowers can and should be planted in the fall at the dacha

Not all flowers are suitable for spring planting. Some only sow in the fall. These include perennials that need cold for good development. Not all flower growers know what flowers can and should be planted in the fall in the country. Such plants adapt more easily to garden conditions. They become stronger and healthier. If you sow flowers in the autumn, they will hurt less. Perennial plants are less often affected by various pests. Therefore, it is worth telling about them in more detail.

What flowers are planted in autumn?

Delphiniums. They need to be planted with pieces of rhizomes in early October. Particular attention should be paid to cut tube stems. They should not get wet. Otherwise, in wet weather the rhizome will rot. This often happens with first-planted and transplanted specimens. To prevent damage, you can wrap the hemp with lutrasil.
Lupins. Flowers take root well in any soil. They cannot be planted in the shade, because... they prefer sunny places. Lupines grow well even when planted quite densely. After digging up the clumps, they need to be broken up and planted in the right place. They will begin to bloom next season.
Herbaceous peonies. Plant division is very simple. They need to be cut with a shovel. You can treat the cuts with charcoal, which is especially important in rainy weather. Planting peonies will require drainage. Sand should be added to the ground. If we are talking about dividing plants from your garden, it will begin to bloom within a year. New flowers will delight you with beauty soon, but not for long.
Astilbe. Plants need to be sown or replanted in September. October is too cold for astilbe. Do not trim the foliage of purchased flowers, and when replanting your own plants, the rule does not work. When purchasing a rhizome, it is worth insulating it with compost and fallen leaves.
Phloxes. They can be planted until mid-October. Curtains can be easily divided with a shovel or broken by hand. Before digging, phlox should be trimmed for convenience. The rhizome does not require insulation.
Echinacea. The plant should be planted and replanted in the first half of September. The flower does not tolerate thickening well. Echinacea is at odds with other perennials. They are able to push it out of the flower garden.
Loosestrife point. Their uniqueness lies in their external resemblance to bells. Loosestrifes are yellow in color. After cutting the clumps with a shovel, you need to replant them. This can be done before the beginning of October.
Nivyaniki. In another way, they are often called garden daisies. They are easy to care for, but do not always take root in the spring. Divide the rhizomes and remove the top. The landing site should be sunny and not too wet.
Pyrethrums. Colored daisies are smaller, but very bright. If you plant them in the spring, flowering will begin the next year. Pyrethrums love loose soil and bright places.
Primroses. The end of September is considered optimal for planting them. Usually flowers are sold in pots. Plants should not be trimmed on the eve of winter. The ideal place for primroses is a semi-shaded or sunny area. Flowers grow best in moist and nutritious soil.
Asters. Some varieties bloom in late spring and early summer. Alpine asters can reach 30 cm in height. Italian ones can grow up to 60 cm. Flowers are divided 3 times a year, when the bush becomes bare from the inside. After digging up the roots, they are divided and replanted.
Poppies. Flowers love sunny places. They are characterized by reproduction not only by dividing rhizomes, but by self-sowing. You can dig up and plant small specimens in a new place. Large sections should be shortened and the planting site insulated. Compost is perfect for this purpose. Small parts of flowers just need to be insulated and pruned in the spring. The choice of poppy variety should be approached carefully. Otherwise, there is a risk of problems with law enforcement agencies.

Flowers that can be planted in autumn: names and descriptions

There are many perennials (and biennials) that you can successfully plant in the fall and enjoy their beauty in subsequent seasons. With their help, you can improve the garden area, bring brightness and festivity.

Perennials for planting in autumn

Many perennials are planted by seeds and by dividing the bush. Below you can explore the most interesting and beautiful specimens.

Primrose

There are more than 500 types of beautiful primrose. Flowering occurs at different times depending on the species, but, as a rule, this flower is considered a spring bloomer.

The optimal location of a flower bed with primroses is in partial shade, which comes from trees and bushes. The soil should be fertile and moist. The recommended time for planting a flower in the garden or country house in the fall is the end of September.

Advice! You can find all the detailed information about planting primrose on this website .

Heuchera

Heuchera is an amazing plant that can change the color of its leaves during the growing season. Interesting shades and their combination on the leaves attract the attention of even the most experienced gardeners. Heuchera is often used to create flower beds near the house, alpine slides, and stone flower beds .

Heucheras are suitable for light, nutritious soils with permeable properties. You should not choose areas where moisture stagnates.

As for the growing area, the opinions of experienced gardeners differ: some say that it is best to root in a sunny place, others say that a shaded bed is more suitable. Therefore, you can choose a place with partial shade or with good lighting and protection from winds and cold.

It is optimal to replant heuchera in the autumn after flowering. Delenki should be mulched to protect them from cold weather.

herbaceous peony

Many gardeners love the beautiful and unpretentious herbaceous peony that blooms in spring. For rooting, you should choose sunny, well-lit areas. But it is also important that there are bushes or small trees nearby that can protect the peony from bad weather. Areas in lowlands where moisture stagnates should be avoided.

Suitable dates for the event are the end of August-beginning of September (but if the season is warm, then the procedure can be carried out until the end of September).

Important! You can study more detailed information about planting peonies in this article .

Rudbeckia

Sunny areas are suitable for rudbeckia. It is not recommended to grow it in one bed for more than five years, so after this period it is better to replant it. It is optimal to do this in the second half of September after flowering. But it is better to sow seeds in the spring.

Phloxes

Beautiful summer flowering perennials. The place for planting them should be chosen as sunny, with moist soil, preferably loose and fertile.

Phlox can be planted and replanted in September-October. But if you did this too late, then you need to mulch the bed after the event. You will find details about sowing phlox seeds in this article .

Hosts

Hosta is a shade-loving plant, which is called the “queen of shade”, so it must be planted in a shady area.

By the way! You can read about other shade-loving and shade-tolerant plants this material .

Hosta also loves humidity, but excess moisture still needs to be excluded. It looks very beautiful both during flowering and after (thanks to the magnificent leaves).

It is better to replant hostas on a cloudy day. This must be done no later than a month before frost.

Delphinium

The color of the delphinium is very diverse and can vary from soft pink to bright blue. In the southern regions of the country it blooms in May-June and blooms again in the fall. As for central Russia, flowering occurs in the summer - mid-June and lasts until the end of July. It can resume provided that the flower stalks are cut off after the first flowering.

The first half of September is the optimal period in the fall when you can plant or transplant a flower into open ground. For planting, it is better to choose a sunny, spacious place. The soil must be fertile. By the way, if it is sandy or clay, then it is recommended to fertilize it well. Before autumn planting or replanting, it is necessary to dig up the soil and apply organic fertilizers.

A suitable place for the woolly guillemot is a sunny or semi-shaded area without stagnant moisture with light, loose soil that drains well. With an abundance of sunlight, the woolly chick will be more silvery and shiny. It is better to give sheep's ears some free space and not plant too close to other crops.

Loosestrife point

An unusual specimen with bright, juicy flowers will look great either alone or next to other plants in a flowerbed. Loosestrife blooms from late June to mid-August. It is worth replanting it about once every three years, because it grows quickly and can begin to crowd out other “inhabitants” of the garden.

It is best to plant and replant loosestrife in September or October. The soil should be moist at the time of deepening. It is also important that there are no young leaves on the dotted loosestrife.

You can plant a flower in the fall anywhere, because any area in the garden is suitable for growing. With an abundance of sunlight, flowering will begin earlier, but there is a risk that the dicenter will be low.

If you plan to plant a flower in open ground by dividing the bush, then it is recommended to prune it in the fall before digging the dicenter.

It is important that the dicentra has time to take root before the onset of cold weather, so it is necessary to plant it in the country house or garden in September.

Garden yarrow

Garden yarrow can delight with its color almost all summer. And it blooms beautifully!

Garden yarrow should be planted and replanted in a sunny place. It is better to plant garden yarrow in the fall rather than in the spring because it loves the cold.

But please note that this plant is moisture- and shade-loving, so the planting location in the country house or garden should be chosen taking these features into account. Spring flowering of Brunnera begins in late April-early May and lasts about a month. If the autumn season is warm, then re-blooming is possible.

It is best to carry out autumn planting and replanting of brunners in the country house or garden in early September. If the event is carried out too late, then hilling must be carried out. It is also best to carry out the procedure in the evening or on a cloudy day.

Brunnera is exactly the flower to plant in the fall. It is highly not recommended to carry out a gardening event in the spring; planting and replanting in the spring is only allowed for large-leaved brunners.

Poppy

Poppy is a light-loving plant, so it needs to be sown in a well-lit area. For colorful poppies, stagnation of moisture in the soil is categorical, so the site must be with deep groundwater. Poppy can be grown on any soil, but crumbly light soils - loam, sandy loam - are most suitable for it.

The photo shows bright and magnificent poppies:

Planting poppies with seeds is possible not only in autumn, but also in spring. However, if you sow in the autumn, you can enjoy flowering at an earlier date.

The combination of bright yellow and bright white will brighten up any flower bed. Nivyanik is an unpretentious plant that is easy to care for.

When rooting in the spring, there is a risk that it will not take root, so autumn is the most optimal time for planting cornflowers in open ground. The place for planting in a country house or on the site of a private house should be sunny, with drained, loose soil, the site should not be excessively damp.

Biennials suitable for autumn planting

Not only perennials can be successfully planted in the fall. You can safely carry out the procedure and get a wonderful result with biennials.

Aquilegia

Groups of perennial flowers

Perennial flowers are divided into two groups. Firstly, these are heat-loving crops that cannot overwinter in our climate. They have to be dug up annually in the fall, stored at positive temperatures and in special conditions, and planted in the spring. This group includes many tuberous and bulbous flowers. For example, the flowers of gladiators and warriors are gladioli, or cheerful dahlias.

The second group consists of rhizomatous frost-resistant flowers that overwinter directly in flower beds and flower beds. These perennial flowers do not need to be replanted annually, because many of them can grow in one place from 4 to 10-12 years. But these flowers will also require replanting and dividing the bush after some time.

Why is it necessary to divide perennial flower bushes?

Because over the years of vegetation, the root system of the plant grows wider and upward. Roots and rhizomes interfere with each other and compete for food. Old, dying roots interfere with young developing ones. The roots come to the surface, which can cause them to freeze. To allow the young parts of the plant to develop, perennials are transplanted and divided.

When to divide perennials

You can determine that plants need replanting by looking at the “bald” center of the bush. If flowering has become scarce and the flowers have become smaller. As a rule, dividing perennials is carried out every five to six years. Experienced gardeners annually rejuvenate, divide or replant two or three perennials in the flowerbed. Thus, the overall decorative effect of the flower garden is not disturbed.

Dividing the bush and replanting perennials is carried out in early spring, before foliage grows, and in the fall, a month and a half before a steady cold snap. Perennial flowers that bloom in late summer and fall are replanted in the spring. So that before flowering they have time to take root, recover and bloom in due time.

In the fall, perennials that have bloomed in the spring and early summer are replanted. Before the cold weather, they must take root in a new place and get stronger, preparing for winter.

Perennial flowers that are replanted in early autumn

In September, the unpretentious astilbe, this beauty of the shady garden, is replanted. However, this plant easily tolerates transplantation at any phase of the growing season. Brunnera, herbaceous peony, delphiniums and lupins are planted and divided in early autumn. Transplanted hostas, irises, clematis, and phlox take root well at this time.

As a rule, new varieties of these plant species can be planted at the same time.

Perennial flowers: rules for dividing a bush

It is better to start dividing and replanting the bush on a cloudy day. The day before transplanting, the plant should be watered abundantly. So that the leaves and roots have good turgor and can withstand stress more easily.

Also, a day before transplanting, prepare planting holes, filling them with phosphorus-potassium fertilizers or autumn complex fertilizer. You can add wood slag. Nitrogen fertilizers should not be applied in the fall. Because they can provoke the growth of new shoots. Which will not have time to ripen before the cold weather and will die, thereby weakening the bush.

The transplanted bush is dug up widely, trying not to damage the root system. Carefully remove from the soil. Shake off the ground. Carefully inspect the roots and remove dead, diseased and rotten ones with a sharp knife.

Then the locations of the incisions are determined into divisions so that each one has at least three healthy kidneys. Divide the bush with a shovel, knife or pruning shears.

The cuttings are treated with a fungicide solution, for example, “Maxim” or a pink solution of potassium permanganate. Then it would be a good idea to powder the roots and cuts with ash.

The planted sections are watered abundantly, the soil under them is mulched with mowed lawn grass, high-quality compost, and chopped straw. Plantings are covered with spunbond from hot sun rays.

The technology for planting new plants is exactly the same. It’s just important not to miss the optimal planting dates. Because plants planted at a later date will not have time to adapt and take root. As a result, they will die in winter or emerge from wintering extremely weakened. And you shouldn’t expect full flowering in the new season.

Late planting: what conditions must be ensured?

The permissible landing time is not determined by calendar dates. It is unacceptable to look at the calendar and say with confidence: “You can plant today, but you can’t plant tomorrow.” Even if you find recommendations regarding numbers, you should only take them as generally accepted values. They are followed because, through long-term observations, it has been established that plants planted precisely at these times take root.

In addition to dates, the following are important:

climatic conditions in the region;
actual soil condition;
type of root system.

It often happens that during a long, warm autumn, bulbous plants manage to sprout before the onset of cold weather. Perhaps, even in this case, the flowers will overwinter well, and after that they will display their varietal qualities to the maximum.

Planting under fallen snow is also allowed, but only if the ground underneath has not yet frozen and is quite loose, or at least lifted with a shovel. Please note that perennials with a closed root system can be planted until November. But otherwise, you need a reserve of time in order to grow and survive the winter safely.

It is also worth noting the fact that in winter, when the plant is dormant, the use of growth stimulants is extremely undesirable. Such drugs can harm them. The situation is similar with watering. If plants are planted late, there is no need to water them.

Perennial flowers: features of transplanting individual crops

Perennial flowers are very diverse and each crop has its own characteristics.

Peonies

We already talked about how to replant peonies in the article Peonies in August: cut, divide, replant. These luxurious flowers can grow in one place for up to twenty years. But in order for the flowering to be abundant and the flowers themselves not to become smaller, they are replanted every 5-6 years. And this needs to be done at the end of August - very beginning of September. So that the peonies have time to get used to their new place and prepare for the winter.

The peculiarity of planting peonies is that they cannot be buried. If the top bud is more than 1.5 centimeters in the ground, then you will get a bush with abundant luxurious foliage. But you won't get flowers. If the top bud is left above the soil level, it may freeze.

Irises

Growing irises was discussed in the article Irises in the garden: caring for them correctly. Irises require replanting at least once every three to four years. Otherwise, they grow and form a “bald” center of the bush. Lateral roots go deep into the soil and flower buds do not form on them.

Astilbe

This plant is best replanted after flowering. It tolerates transplantation well and easily adapts to a new location. It is only important that there is at least a month left before frost from replanting. By the way, if there is high soil moisture in the shady corners of your garden, feel free to plant astilbe there. It is capable of draining stagnant areas.

Phloxes

Foam caps of these simple flowers can decorate any garden. More information about growing phlox is described in the article at the link.

Phlox are replanted in the second half of September. They tolerate dividing the bush quite easily and take root well in a new place. Phlox bushes should be replanted and divided at least every five years. In addition, phloxes need to be earthed up every fall.

Khosta

We have already talked in detail about the features of growing hosta in the article Hosta - emerald greens and sun glare...

This queen of the shadow does not tolerate transplanting and dividing the bush very well. But in one place it can grow and increase its decorative value for up to two to three decades. That is why the choice of landing site should initially be approached with all seriousness.

The hosta is transplanted no later than the first half of September so that it has time to grow new roots.

In addition to the listed perennials, daylilies are replanted in the fall; they are also called the flowers of the intellectual lazy person, dicentra, or broken heart, adonis. If the bushes are divided and replanted in a timely and correct manner, the perennial flowers will survive the winter well and will delight you with a luxurious appearance in the new season.

Contraindications for transplantation

There are not many contraindications to transplantation, but they should be taken into account.

Problems due to the fact that the plant is too large . For example, a ficus will grow up to two meters. Replanting such a plant is problematic. Therefore, instead of replanting, they do the following: remove the top layer of soil and replace it with a new one. So the plant does not need to be replanted, and it receives nutrients from the new soil.

Transplant timing. Under no circumstances should you replant plants if they have not yet bloomed. Firstly, all the flowers will dry out and fall off, and secondly, the flower will take a long time to recover and become sick.
Too delicate root system . There are indoor plants with fragile roots that are easily damaged when transplanted. Then it is better to transship so as not to disturb the root system. It is better not to touch the roots of plants such as begonias, fittonias, ferns, and some types of palm trees. They are carefully removed from the pots without cleaning the roots.
