Compact, well-bred Crohn formation and unusual outlines of dark green leaves allowed him to take the honorable place in the list of preferences of landscape designers. Distinguishes the culture and versatility of use. Often it is grown as part of the living elevations of any height, but no less effectively look in the garden and single almonds.
We are looking for a suitable area
Landing shrub will be successful if you choose for it right place. The plant does not like tightness and take the shadow badly. The key to his health and abundant flowering - free access of air and sun rays in combination with reliable protection From drafts and pivyoy winds. An ideal place For almonds will be the southern part of the garden. It is better to choose a plot that is well covered throughout the day. You can put it close to high trees. The decorativeness of the shrub will not suffer, if 2-3 hours a day it will be in the light shadow dropped by them.
Special requirements for the quality and structure of the soil, culture does not impose. It is most suitable for her light loams or sampling soils with a rich incent of nutrient elements and a significant depth of the occurrence groundwater. In them, the roots of almonds will not suffer from moisture stagnation and from the lack of oxygen. If the land on the plot is dense and contains a lot of clay or it is inclined to flooding, the cultivation of the shrub is likely to end with his death.
Important for culture and soil reaction. Decorative almonds cultivate on neutral or weakly acidic soils. If the pH indicator goes beyond 4.5-7.5, the soil will have to neutralize or abandon it before boarding the shrub. In an acidic or a lot of salts, the plant will be weak and vulnerable to disease.
Getting ready for landing
Almonds refers to deciduous cultures. It is possible to plant it in autumn or spring. In the first case, the procedure comes after decorative shrub Throws all the leaves. In the second - focus on weather conditions. The almond landing is carried out when heat is finally established. If the threat of frosts is still preserved, it is better to postpone it. On the early stages The development of the thermal-loving plant they can greatly harm him. Fix such consequences will not help any care. More often practiced autumn planting Culture.
IN natural conditions Almond bushes are usually found on stony slopes. Therefore, the presence of boulders and cobblestones on the site it will be easily easily, you can not spend the strength to remove them. Saplings are placed in the pits of the middle depth (about 30 cm). If the bushes are somewhat, between them leave the interval at 3-5 m. Almond landing rows will require a lot of space. The distance from one to the other should be approximately 5 m.
Shrub needs a good drainage, so the bottom of the pit is covered with a layer of rubble or broken bricks, and on top pour sand. Almond cultivation will require support. It is better to install it immediately, driven into the center of the landing pit long count. The height of the support should be at least 0.5 m. Better coming up on the site annual plants. To landing bring less stress to the almond bushes, they choose a cloudy and non-jarous day. Conduct it early in the morning or in the evening. The procedure includes several steps.
- The roots of the seedling are dipped into the clay bolt.
- They put a plant in the pit so that its root neck is above the soil surface (rises above it by 2-3 cm).
- A fertile loose substrate is poured, consisting of the top layer of soil, leaf land, humid and sand.
- At acidic soil reaction in the pit, lime or dolomite flour are added.
- The soil around the plant is sealing and abundantly watered planted decorative almonds (1-1.5 buckets of water).
After absorbing the liquid and the soil sedimentation, the future bush is linked to the support. Ends the landing with the mulching of the priority circle. Well suited for these purposes dry land or peat. The mulch layer is poured so that it does not cover the root neck of the plant.
For almonds are characterized by cross pollination. His growing will deliver less hassle, if you place in the garden not one, and 2-3 bushes. Basically pollinate a bee shrub, so it's good if the site is near the apiary.
Pour and feeding
Decorative almonds in the garden will not require much attention. It is not more complicated to grow than any other shrub. Provide him correct care Can even beginners.
Care consists of standard procedures:
- glaze;
- soil loosenings;
- removal of weeds;
- feeding;
- trimming;
- preventive measures aimed at combating diseases and pests.
Shrub will delight luxurious and long flowering in a wet soil. It is impossible to dry up, otherwise the loose buds will quickly fade. When irrigated, it is important to observe the golden middle. Excess moisture causes the reinforcement of the root cervix and his death. The amount of water introduced depends on the type of soil. If the almond growing is highlighted for a sand with sandy soil, watering is needed abundant. On thin soil moisturizing is moderately. Time for the next procedure is determined by the state of the soil in the attractive circle. If its top layer (1.5-2 cm) is a mischief, it has come. Usually pour almond once a week, spending on such a departure of 1 bucket of water.
Moisturizing the soil, his loose. If the bush is still young, then the soil is treated shallow - by 5-7 cm. Adult plants require more intense care. Around them the loosening is carried out to a depth of 8-10 cm. Almond does not like the neighborhood of weeds. The soil in the priority circle should always be clean.
Decorative shrub speaks good fertilizer. Feed it throughout the entire growing season. In the spring you can not make mineral formulations In the soil, but to carry out the mulching of the priority circle with a nutrient organic (overwhelmed with dung or cow). Later, an ammonium notera is used for feeding, dissolving them in water and watering this mixture of the plant. With the advent of autumn, the care of almonds complements the introduction into the soil of potash-phosphoric compositions. Well proven itself sulfate potassium and dual superphosphate.
We carry out trimming
Growing shrub, you will have to master the rules for its trimming. If you do not include this procedure in the mandatory care for it, the decorativeness of the almond will decrease, and its flowering will be scarce. Crop it into sanitary purposes and to form a crown. In the first case, the procedure is carried out in early spring. It is important to have time before the start of the deposit.
With sanitary trimming, the following types of branches are getting rid of:
- damaged;
- patients;
- born frost;
- dry;
- thickening crown;
- growing inside;
- minding each other.
When the bush blends, you can remove the shoots on which there were buds. Such care will contribute to the development and aging of young branches, which laid flower buds of the next year. Then you can proceed to the forming trimming. The plant transfers it well.
Forming the throne of almonds start immediately after landing. Having placed one-year bush in the soil, shocked his shoots by 20 cm. In the next 3 years, the purpose of pruning becomes the formation of a skeleton of the plant. The main branches are layered at a distance of 20-30 cm from each other. In the summer, there are 2-3 pieces of unnecessary shoots. Those that need to be leaving are shortening when they are pulled out in length more than 60 cm. Care for an adult tonsum of almonds (7 years and older) provides for the pruning of old branches. The root siblings will come to replace them, which shrub begins to actively give when it reaches 3 years of age.
Preparing a plant for winter
Mind of Almond - Mediterranean, whose climate characterizes a hot dry summer and soft winter from large quantity precipitation. The plant is heat-loving, so it is started to prepare him in the occurrence of the field of cold weather. Paging the upper part of the bush stimulates their decisions. Such branches are withstanding frosts almost without loss.
Decorative almond bushes are even in Siberia's gardens. But in this region, not all of its varieties will be able to grow. The culture has many varieties, but only some of them differ in high-resistance. Siberians better choose to plant almond steppe. It is also known as wild, or low. In the people, it is usually called a bob carrier and a tumor.
Young plants winter under the shelter. It can be made of straw or dry foliage. The height of the protective layer should be significant - at least 15 cm. Adults of almonds are not covered. If winter is given harsh, floral kidneys on the plant and the ends of it can be frozen. But you should not panic, finding such signs on the shrub. The decorativeness of its crown is restored quickly. The effects of snowy winter are more serious. Under the thick layer of ice cereals, the root neck of the plant can recycle.
Few decorative shrubs can boast such an abundance of advantages like almonds. It has a rapid growth, unpretentiousness, is not afraid of drought, adapted to urban conditions. His flowers attract bees, making a plant with a valuable honey culture.

The landing of almonds are engaged in a few, believing that it's all wasted - will freeze in the first winter. However, now breeders have brought quite a lot of frost-resistant varieties that are great and grow in medium latitudes.
Why does almond give no fruit? Because in spring floral kidneys, falling under return freezers, die. Therefore, buying a seedling, always specify where it has been derived and is adapted to your area.
IN middle lane Almond grades are grown: Nikitinsky, Primorsky, Crested, Dessert, from decorative species of three-blade almonds and Georgian. All of them are frost-resistant, fruitful and in the period of flowering is very beautiful. In addition to decorative type Sizza still "Chofu".

For high-quality recovery, minimum 2 wood is always planted. different varietiesSince one sapling will not give fruits. The distance between the landing yams is 2-4 m. The pits of a depth of 60 cm, in diameter 50x70 cm. When planting the almond garden, the distance between the rows leave 7 m.
Locked the drainage layer (20 cm) from the broken brick or rubble, top with sand with sand 5-10 cm, the seedlock is installed and fall asleep with a mixture of: manure (5-6 kg), superphosphate (0.5 kg), lime (300 g) . Lime can be replaced dolomite flour. After landing, they are abundantly watered and mulched peat to save moisture. Please note that the root neck or the vaccination point must remain on the surface. After landing, the rapid seedling is temporarily tied to the stakes.
Care for almonds
In the first year after planting, watering 1 time in 2 weeks, to carry out the richness of the priority circle, eliminating the tree from weeds. When watering, make sure that the root neck is not in the water, it can be started. With a lack of moisture, flowering time is reduced. Because of such "capriciousness", the level of soil moisture is better to check (the top layer of the soil is 1-1.5 cm dry, it means you can rOCK Pour 10 liters of water).
The ripening of almond fruits occurs in August-September. It is better to use in the raw form, since after heat treatment all the beneficial substances are lost.
To form shrub almondsi start 1 year after landing. Spring is cut to a height of 80-100 cm, and side shoots Up to a length of 40 cm, leaving only 4-5 of the strongest, of which the crown of the tree will be formed. Cutting annual shootsIt will be possible to form a compact crown. After 4-5 years, you can begin to make sanitary trimming. They are carried out after flowering, removing thickening, sick, dry branches.
For fruiting, feeding are important. All increments are shortened up to 60 cm. If the almonds do not cut, then the fruit ovary is weakening. 
Every 2 weeks, from spring until summer, nitrogen-potash fertilizer contribute. One-time spring add copper-containing fertilizer.
Almond makes the shooters of shoots, if they quickly decide before frosts, it will appear frost resistance. For this, the top shoots are pinned in early August. Stambling forms are covered with Loutrasil.
Almonds sick rust, curlness of leaves and gray rot, the fighting liquid uses burgundy liquid and removing damaged parts. And from the pest annoyes (it is possible to fight from which in different ways), the leaflerting and, which go on the shaded tool adhesive. Behind the appearance of caterpillars should be monitored during flowering.
On the 7th year of life, shoots start to die, they need to be removed to appear new, young.
Minds are breeding different ways :
- root pig (the easiest way of reproduction). Separated from the uterine bush for the second year, when the roots were formed;
- root chain. Also nothing complicated, but long. Select the lowest shoots and pinch with the brackets to the ground, hurt. You can expect the appearance of new roots for a long time for 2 years, but when they appear, do not rush to dig up, give another 1 year of rooting to form a strong root system;
- Green cuttings. In July, cuttings are cut at 15-20 cm so that each has 2-3 knots, lowered by 12-15 hours in the growth stimulator, after which they plant in the seedlings with a sandy-peat mixture (1: 1). On the surface of the soil should remain one node. After 3 weeks, roots appear;
- In vaccination are engaged in late July.
