Red-Veined dock
Red-Veined dock
Perennial. Plant height 40 cm.
Its decorative leaves are adorned with burgundy veins that give it an incredibly festive look. It will become an ideal partner for flowering annuals and perennials, and will turn a dish made from it into a novelty in your kitchen. Thanks to its lightness, dynamism and grace, it will give the garden an incomparable charm. It will take its rightful place on a rocky hill and in a flower arrangement.
Sowing: March-April in open ground.
Care: Prefers a sunny location. Likes fertile, well-drained soils. Does not tolerate wet soils!
In the spring, compost is poured under the bushes. In the period before the onset of mass flowering, fertilizing with complex mineral fertilizers is carried out with an interval of 10-14 days. For the winter, plants are covered with spruce branches.
Flowering: June-August. After flowering, the bushes are trimmed. Pruning is carried out every two or three years in April.
