There is a high probability that the planted flowers will be affected by pests. This is especially true of roses, which are very fond of aphids. Many try to fight it using folk remedies, such as garlic or soapy water. But, of course, it is more reliable and more efficient to immediately resort to the help of chemistry. Please note that it is not recommended to sow the same annuals in a flower bed from year to year.
It is better to do everything as follows: plant asters in the first year, cloves in the second, sweet peas in the third year, then calendula, marigolds, zinnia.
Although there are perennials, in particular gladioli, which are not planted for the second year in one place. In general, experts advise about once every 5 years to divide perennial flowers and replant them.
True, roses and peonies can do without transplantation for longer than 10-15 years. It is worth returning the plants to their original place no faster than two or three years after planting. So that the flower bed is not empty, annuals can be planted in the vacant place. Don’t forget about supplements. For the “lazy”, complex mineral fertilizers are good, acting for 2-3 months. They can also be used for feeding decorative shrubs.
