Today we will pay attention to the planting process and the formation of living hedges from Wawa and all related features and nuances. Living fence from Willow raises quickly, it looks quite aesthetically (as you can see in the photo) and does not require much care.
Willow is a genus of a plant that includes several hundred species and a huge number of subspecies. It is characterized by rapid growth, and, therefore, there is a real opportunity to arrange a living fence in a rather short rock.
The most accessible and demanded in the landscape design of the types of willow
- Red Shelyuga.
- Krasnatul.
- Whital.
- Midlelectric Iva.
- Ostrolistic willow.
- Prutoid willa.
- Purple Eve.
- Red willow.
- Three pitchfish willow.
- Five pyttychnaya IVA.
Why is Iva?
- She is unpretentious.
- It grows very quickly.
- Resistant to severe frosts.
- Quietly tolerates the cutting process.
- Moisture-inhibit (will not suffer from the oversaturation of the soil excessive) moisture.
- It can be multiplied by drawing. Those. No need to purchase a large number of seedlings.
- All her subspecies are excellent turbines (this is the information of the owners of mini-apthics in country grounds).
Landing and formation of living hedges from Willow with their own hands
Formed hedge
Such a living fence requires additional attention to the formation of a certain pattern of stems. The drawing of the ornament depends on your imagination. We describe a fairly standard type of formed fence from willow.
What should be stocking?
- pegs (their size is completely dictated by the length of seedlings);
- marking cord;
- shovel;
- bACK for binding of shoots;
- a knife for cutting a cortex;
- mineral fertilizers;
- water for watering;
- saplings.
Annual plants should be prepared from autumn, keeping them in the basement. The cuttings must be prepared by cutting before the growing season. Sliced \u200b\u200blater cuttings are worse.
If you did not harvest seedlings yourself, you can buy them. By purchasing willow, pay attention to the fact that the roots are in the burlap or container. Soil inside the package must be wet. If the roots are dried, seedlings can be thrown away.
What and how to do?
- Drive pointed pegs along the planned live fence line, withstanding a step 1.5-2 m.
- Make marking, fixing the cord on the carriages.
- Okay the soil along the markup, lifting the layer of the Earth about 50 cm.
- Feel the dyspanned soil with mineral fertilizers.
- Pour a diverty strip.
- Plant seedlings with an interval of 15-20 cm and at an angle of 45 ° to the ground level.
- Take two adjacent escapes towards each other.
- Where two cuttings are crossed out, cut the bark and bind the crumpled places with a twine (or tape) and cut the escape above the connection site. So they grow faster.
- The next year, when the cuttings growl, the new escape is incorporated into the opposite direction and connect the same way with another neighboring process, forming a gradually live elevation.
- Next, the handsucking shoots can be twisted with each other.
Important!
In the fall, inspect the living fence for the dead shoots. Replace them with new ones to take intertwined with sprouts. So your fence will not lose strength and visual aesthetics.
Freely growing live elevation
Such an incomparated living fence (photo) consists of densely planted plants shoots and does not require special care. It is enough to cut it once a year, water and destroy pests. 
By the way, such, slightly launched, "wild" and romantic fences are more popular today among landscape design professionals.
What cut a live woven?
- garden scissors;
- secateur;
- trimmer;
- electronics;
- chainsaw.
Tunnel from Willow
Livestore does not have to be straightforward. Very original looks of plants look original, but this pleasure is not cheap, and not every gardener is capable of independently cut the exclusive crown. But there are options and simpler, but no less spectacular. For example, you can easily build a tunnel from Willow.
The principle of landing is the same as described above, only shoots sit in two rows. The distance between the rows is equal to the width of the future tunnel (most often this value is about 1.5 m). When both hedges grow to the desired height (keep in mind that there should be a person freely under the archway), stems located opposite each other are associated, forming a set of arches along the entire length of the tunnel. Caring for such a living building is not complicated. Usually it comes down to the autumn trimming of unnecessary shoots and the elimination of the dead cuttings. Dead shoots are replaced by adding new, intertwined them into the already formed composition. Thus, the tunnel does not lose stability and get rid of the gaping holes on the site of dried plants.
