When to transplant a primrose - in the spring, in the summer or in the fall

Primrose is a bright ornamental plant, which is distinguished by an unusual appearance and a wide variety of shades. Primrose is characterized by ease of care. Moreover, in a short period of time, it can grow quite strongly. As a result, rosettes begin to oppress each other, which negatively affects the flowering and decorative properties of the bush. Therefore, many gardeners are interested in the question of when to transplant a primrose and how to do it correctly.

Why transplant primrose to a new place or to another pot

The culture needs a transplant every 3-4 years. More often, the procedure is not required. Usually it is performed in such situations:

• the bushes grow very much and the outlets become crowded on the site;
• splendor and duration of flowering decreased;
• the roots are exposed and there is a risk of death of the culture from the cold.

Primrose needs to be transplanted periodically

When to transplant after flowering: in spring or autumn

Many people are interested in when you can transplant a primrose to a new place. It all depends on the variety and variety of culture.

When to transplant a primrose garden? Plant species that have 2 phases of active growth and 2 flowering periods should be transplanted after flowering. It is permissible to do this in spring or autumn.

Primrose, which blooms once - in April or May, should be moved to a new place in the first month of autumn, when the culture awakens. This will help the flower gain strength and adapt to new conditions.

Is it possible to plant primrose in summer

When else can primrose be planted? Experienced gardeners can transplant primrose in the summer. At the same time, it is important to provide the plant with sufficient watering and shading.

Transplanting primrose after flowering is also possible. In this case, it is permissible to carry out the procedure at the end of summer, when it became a little cooler, but quite a long way to winter. It is important that the plant has enough time to root.

How often can I transplant a flower

The frequency of the procedure depends on the growing conditions.

• If the crop grows in the garden, the bush can be replanted and divided with an interval of 5 years. The plant has a tendency to overgrow and needs periodic rejuvenation.
• When growing the culture at room conditions, the transplant is done at intervals of 2-3 years.

Preparing a place for a garden and indoor plant

To plant a home primrose, you need to take a larger pot. It is important that it is wide enough, but has a shallow depth.

The best option is a clay pot. This material is breathable and provides breath respiration. As a result, the plant has the ability to develop in the most comfortable conditions. It is important that the pot has drainage holes.

To plant a plant in a new container, you should do the following:

1. Carefully put the flower pot on its side and hold its stems.
2. Take a spatula and gently pry the roots from the very edge of the container. This must be done together with the earth. Then take out the plant with a lump of soil.
3. Cover the bottom of the new tank with a drainage layer. It should consist of a small expanded clay. The layer thickness should be 2 cm.
4. Pour a layer of new soil with a thickness of 2 cm. It is important that the expanded clay is completely covered. The root system of the flower should not touch the drainage layer.
5. A plant with a lump of soil should be carefully placed in a new container. It is important to ensure that the bush is placed right in the center.
6. Empties from the sides should be sprinkled with new soil. The primrose should not be buried with a socket in the ground. It should be located on the surface.

In those years when a transplant is not planned, soil renewal is carried out. In this case, you need to remove 1.5 cm of the earth and replace it with a new one.

Transplanting garden primroses has certain features. Small plants should be planted with an interval of 10-15 cm, and large ones with an interval of 20-30 cm.

Primrose needs a closed and protected place. Therefore, the flower garden is formed in such a way as to achieve the closure of the plant after transplantation.

Planting primrose is recommended in cloudy weather. To do this, it is recommended to do the following:

1. Dig a hole of the required depth in the desired place.
2. Add sand, ash and manure to the resulting depression.
3. Dig a primrose with a lump of soil.
4. Move the plant and put in the center of a new hole.
5. Gently sprinkle the plant on the sides.
6. Moisten the soil. In hot weather, the bushes need additional shading.

Many people are interested in when to plant primrose by dividing the bush. In this case, the manipulation is performed after the completion of the flowering period. In this case, after a transplant, the flower should have time to root before the onset of cold weather. Therefore, it is important to focus on weather conditions in a particular region.

Step-by-step process of transplanting primrose in various ways

There are many ways to transplant a culture. In most cases, this procedure is combined with the propagation of bushes.

Dividing the bush

For 4-5 years, overgrown primrose bushes need to be watered and dug. This should be done in August or early September. When transplanting, the roots need to be shaken off the ground, washed in a bucket of water and split the plant with a sharp knife. Each fragment must have at least 1 renewal point.

Sections must be sprinkled with ash. Formed dividends are recommended to be immediately moved to a new place. After planting, primrose should be watered.

Rooting shoots

This primrose propagation procedure can be used with a weak root system or with a single root outlet. To cultivate the culture, a bush with a part of the petiole, a kidney, and a shoot fragment needs to be cut and rooted.

The sheet must first be cut off half. When shoots with 4 leaves appear, they need to be planted in separate containers. With the onset of spring, plants are moved to open soil.

For rooting the culture requires compliance with optimal conditions. In this case, the temperature regime must be maintained at + 16 ... +18 degrees. Of no small importance is the systematic moistening of the soil and the maintenance of optimal illumination. At the same time, it is worthwhile to ensure that direct sunlight does not fall on the bushes.

Caring for transplanted primrose in the garden and at home

For a plant to grow and develop normally, it needs quality care. Timely watering, fertilizing, lighting and humidity help accelerate the adaptation of the crop to new conditions.

Watering

Indoor and garden varieties of primrose cannot tolerate uncontrolled watering. Excessive soil moisture often provokes the development of dangerous fungal infections. To avoid this, the plant should be watered as the topsoil dries. To do this, it is recommended to use settled water.

Top dressing

In order for the primrose to quickly adapt to new conditions and easier to transfer the transplant, it should not be fertilized. You need to apply dressing when the ovary appears. Use such funds every 2 weeks. They help to achieve a beautiful flowering culture.

Primrose should be fed with liquid fertilizers containing iron. The best option is to use chicken manure. It should be mixed with water in a proportion of 1:15. If this is not done, the soil will be full of salts.

External factors

In order for a flower such as primrose to grow quickly and develop correctly, it needs to provide optimal conditions:

• Temperature condition. Primrose hardly tolerates elevated temperatures. For the bush to take root faster and adapt to new conditions, it needs a temperature of + 12 ... +15 degrees. An exception is only the inverse conic variety. She needs a temperature regime of + 15 ... +18 degrees.
• Humidity. For primrose to grow and bloom after transplantation, it needs moist air. In hot weather, you need to spray the flower. Also near it you can place a container filled with wet pebbles. In this case, the flower should not be watered too much. This will cause the root system to rot.

Culture needs proper care for lush flowering

• The composition of the soil. A mixture of sand, peat and earth is ideal for primrose. Sometimes they use ready-made soil for geraniums. However, it is necessary to add 20% of sandstone to it. This option is suitable for growing crops at home. Transplant the bush in a wide and shallow pot. Previously, drainage holes should be made in it.
• Lighting. Primrose needs a sufficiently lit place. In this case, the direct rays of the sun should not fall on the flower. The plant needs diffused light. It can be planted in the east or in the west. In the north, placing culture is not recommended.

Primrose transplantation has a number of features. To ensure the adaptation of culture to new conditions, it must be watered and fed in a timely manner. Compliance with the optimal parameters of temperature and humidity is of no small importance.
