Probably, every gardener who goes to buy seedlings is concerned with the question: how to choose from a huge assortment those specimens that are distinguished by excellent health and will provide a good harvest?
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer, spoke about how to make a smart choice of seedlings.
Fruit trees and shrubs
It is better to choose fruit and berry trees of domestic production or those that were grown in countries with a similar climate.
If you want to plant a particular variety but are unsure about its suitability for your region, consult with local growers or specialist retailers.
They may already have experience with this variety and can provide useful recommendations.
Ornamental plants
However, imported seedlings also deserve attention – if we are talking about decorative and exotic plants.
One of the striking examples is wisteria, which is becoming increasingly popular in our region. Although it is mainly imported from Holland and Germany, these varieties are highly resistant.
The root system of wisteria is able to withstand even severe frosts, so it can be safely planted.
