Flowers "Night Beauty", as in common speechcalled mirabilis, look like fragrant tobacco, which is often decorated with household plots. However, their fragrance is more delicate and delicate. Inflorescences are updated every day. In the evening, you can see how the new flowers bloom. They do not close at night, and in the morning they turn into a tube and fall off after a short time.
It should be noted immediately that this plant isthermophilic. The hottest dry summer will be favorable for him. Do not choose shaded areas for mirabilis! On them, its flowering will cease. The open area, which is well illuminated by the sun, will be an ideal option. For most ornamental plants, such conditions can be disastrous, but not for this.
Mirabilis, landing and care for which does not causecomplexities, differs and unpretentious in terms of fertilizers. It is important only to take care of the lime in sufficient quantities. It is desirable to choose loamy or even clay soil. For the reproduction of the flower there are two ways: seedlings and tubers.
To prepare seedlings, choose the timein advance, until the optimum time of planting in the open ground. Sow the seeds in April, but if you tighten it, the plant may be too weak before transplanting. It will not form until the end, therefore, the adult will not have the strength for flowering. This is unpretentious mirabilis. Planting and caring for seedlings suggest the use of light soil. When the substrate is prepared, it must be taken into account that this plant does not tolerate acid soil. Therefore, the composition of the mixture should not contain any components that affect this index. First of all, we are talking about peat.
Shoots usually appear after 4-6 daysafter sowing, and very massively. After the seedlings form the first leaf, they must be dived in small pots. June transplant is suitable for transplanting seedlings. By this time, the power of the mirabilis will already gather. Planting and caring for it in the future will not be a problem.
There is another similar plant with the sameway of reproduction. Having grown a streptocarpus from seeds, you will receive a flower that shakes the imagination. More and more people decorate their gardens with his help. Its flowering is almost continuous and very abundant. It is enough to provide the necessary conditions - and everything will be fine. Flowers can be picked to your taste. If there are not enough places in the flowerbed, you can confine yourself to compact rosettes, terry or semi-double varieties. All of them will grow actively, although they do not like too close neighbors with each other.
