Where can I plant Plum, Sea buckthorns, Buffaloberries?

For Plum, Sea buckthorns, and Buffaloberries, choose a place with little snow, plenty of light, and neutral or slightly alkaline soil. When planting these crops, drainage is usually established and a small amount of fertilizer is applied: 11-17 lbs (5-8 kg) per bush of organic fertilizer, calcium superphosphate mixed with phosphate powder (100-200 g), and up to 2.2 lbs (1 liter) of wood ash.

Care includes moderate watering (once or twice per season) and mulching. It is best not to till the soil beneath these crops. The shrubs have a productive life of 15-18 years.

Choose a spot with snow and plant Japanese spirea, Thunberg barberry, and Potentilla. these shrubs are not frosted tolerant but recover well after pruning and do not require fertilization or watering. They can be used to create clipped borders or in groups with berries. potentillas and spireas have an ornamental life of 5-7 years and barberries up to 15 years.

Spring-flowering mock oranges, vesicles, Deren, Myrciaria, golden currant, and viburnum are good for loose hedges.

Where to grow cherry trees

Cherry trees prefer slightly alkaline, light-colored soil. This crop will form shoots, so it should be placed separately from other stunted crops. Bush cherry (prairie cherry) grows well in places with little snow, while common cherry (European cherry) prefers places with snow. Lifespan - 12-18 years, depending on the variety's winter hardiness.

 

Where to grow apple trees, pear trees, Mountain-ash

For apple, pear, and Mountain-ash, choose a place with deep groundwater - not more than 6.5-8 feet (2-2.5 m). Their longevity depends on the winter hardiness of the species (on average 15-25 years).

These crops should be watered frequently (4-6 times per season) and not pressed together with other plants.
