In order from spring to late autumn, the city has always maintained beauty in the flower beds, the flowers in the greenhouses are thrown in several stages, and then as necessary, a new plant, is wilted. “Just in Kiev about 3 hectares of flower beds, and decorate, grown in greenhouses millions of colors. Most annuals — begonias, Tagetes, Coleus, petunias, ageratums, and very beautiful pelargonium”, — told the “Today” in “Kievzelenstroy.”

A NEW IRRIGATION SYSTEM AND THE MASSIVE THEFT OF FLOWERS

To city flowerbeds were always blooming and groomed, Kievzelenstroy promptly remove faded and plant new plants. And in the summer, their daily watering. This year plan to equip the city’s 60 new water sprinkler systems. But the main problem in the capital remains the theft of plants. One of the most egregious cases occurred two years ago — a night dug 500 rose bushes in the Park city area! “The theft of plants in the city is one of the biggest problems, in addition to colors (in the past year, was stolen more than 30 thousand different plants. — Ed.) and steal shrubs and even dig novopashenny trees” — complain “Kievzelenstroy”.

BEGONIA: THE MOST CAPRICIOUS AND DELICATE FLOWER

In the greenhouse the flowers are grown not only for beds but also for vases along the capital’s roads. For example, the prospectus Bazhana or Heroes of Stalingrad. “Pelargonium planted on beds, and in hanging bowls or pots (low colors). Even for bowls cultivated dipladenia and also for decor — spiderwort” — explain specialists. In many parts of the bowls are planted bright green Sedum. The range of colors is huge — about 50 species. And care of flowers is quite time consuming. A hostess in greenhouses has to dive (to plant out the seedlings in a separate container) about a thousand plants. Employees of greenhouses assure that every plant is very sensitive and will accept it or not depends on the energy of the person and his mood. “Sometimes with the plant that fades, it is just nice to talk to and little to look after him,” — experts say. They identified the whimsical flower is the begonia: to grow it, it takes about four months. Pelargonium is also growing slowly, but it is more persistent. In the Dnieper area, which will host the Eurovision song contest, will be planted about one million flowers, mostly petunias, 70 thousand begonias — 60 thousand, ageratum — 40 thousand by the Way, the Eurovision song contest in the capital will create 10 panels of flowers, but while the sketches of the compositions are kept secret.

TULIP: LOVE THE DARKNESS

It turns out that the Bud of a Tulip was large and beautiful, in a certain period of flowers covered with special materials, creating for them the darkness, but still need to withstand temperatures around 12 degrees. “The money from the sale of tulips, daffodils go into creating art-objects from flowers, for example, the Eiffel tower height of 5 meters near the Park “Victory”. By the way, in greenhouses often experiment. “Recently, our head gave the seeds of hibiscus (China rose), now care for the plant”, — told in confidence by one employee and greenhouse.
