Joe's Flower "Peggy" (Carnation of Jove)
Carnation of Jove "Peggy" (Joe's Flower) - Lychnis flos-jovis nana.
The new lychnis can become the highlight of any flowerbed if you plant several specimens in the foreground.
The graceful stems bear lovely star-shaped flowers filled with all sorts of tones and halftones of orange and copper-red flowers.
The flowering will last for many weeks, which will give the flowerbed extraordinary lightness. With its help, you can create a spectacular frame for a flowerbed or a border for a garden path, it is used to decorate alpine slides and rocky walls. The height of the plant is 25 cm, the diameter of the inflorescence is up to 4 cm.
Winter hardiness zones: Z4 - Z8.
Propagated by dividing the bush and seeds. 1.0 g = 2500 seeds.
Sowing: March-April for seedlings or in May in open ground.
The seeds require preliminary stratification: sow the seeds, cover with glass and place in the refrigerator (temperature +5+7°C).
The crops are kept in such conditions for 14 days, then transferred to room conditions. At a temperature of +16+18 °C, shoots appear on the 10-14th day.
Seedlings are picked at the stage of two true leaves, trying not to damage the root during transplantation. In open ground, seedlings are planted at a distance of 30-40 cm from each other.
Care: prefers well-drained, light, non-acidic soil, without stagnant water and a sunny location. Water in dry weather. Remove faded flowers.
In autumn, the above-ground part is cut off. In dry weather, abundant watering is required. They grow in one place for up to 6 years.
Flowering: June-August. Used for planting in groups in flower beds to create spectacular bright spots.
