Iyo inonziwo "sundial lupine," blue lupine ndiro zita rinowanzoitirwa Lupinus perennis . Maruva aya ndeyemvura inopera uye nhengo dzemhuri yepea. Sezvo zvakadaro, ivo vane nitrogen-fixers .

Chiratidzo: Mbeu Inotaridzirei?

Spiky bluu racemes (4-10 inches-tall), iro rinenge rava kunopera kwemazhizha kana kutanga kwezhizha, ndizvo zvinoratidzika izvi zvisingaperi, zvinogona kukura zvakakwirira semamita maviri.

Icho chiduku kudarika iyo yakatanga kupikisana, Lupinus polyphyllus (ona pasi apa). Pamusoro pemashizha a lupine, Lawrence Newcomb, mubhuku rake rekucherechedza ruvara rwemusango , anonyora, "Mashizha ekuzasi ane mapeji 7-11 1-2 inches long." Nemhaka yekuonekwa kwemashizha emichindwe, muti wacho unonyatsogadzirisa kunyange kana usina kubhururuka.

Kudyara, Kunosarudza Kuwedzera Mamiriro

Mapupa, ane marefu akawanda, ndeimwe yezvipfeko zvinomera zvisingadi kuiswa. Nokuda kwechikonzero ichi, zviri nani kuedza kuvasimbisa nekuita mbeu.

Allan Armitage, mubhuku rake pamusoro pebindu perennials, anoona kuti lupine maruva "vanoda mazhizha echando, kuvenga kusanganiswa kwekupisa nekunyoro ...." (p.198). Ndicho chikonzero, kunyange zvazvo bluu lupine yakanyorwa nevanyori vazhinji vekudyara nzvimbo 3-9, iyo yakawanda ingangodaro inonyengedza. Icho chinogona kukura zvakanyanya kusvika kumaodzanyemba senharaunda ye 9, asi ichaita zviri nani munzvimbo yakanyanya kusvika kumaodzanyemba kwezera iroro.

Maruva edu anoongorora, Jamie McIntosh, anopa mamwe mazano ekutaura kwemahara 3-7 kune Lupinus species.

Kuchengeta mupfungwa iyi kusingaperi kworuvengo rwekupisa nekunyorova, iwe uchanzwisisa zviri nani mazano pamusoro pemamiriro ekudzivirira. MuNorth, tsvaga bluu remvura yakachena muzuva rose. Izvo zvichienda kumaodzanyemba mumakero ayo unoenda, zvinowedzera kuwedzera kukura iyo mumumvuri usina kukodzera.

Ipa mbeu yako nevhu rakanyoroveswa, rinotsigamira kurutivi rwechidimbu maererano nevhu pH . Pamusana pekudzivirira kwavo nitrogen-kugadzirisa, havadi kuti iwe ugovapa nemuviri wezvimiti; mupfungwa iyoyo, havasi fussy. Asi ivo, chaizvoizvo, vanofunga nezvekudiwa kwemvura, saka kana iwe une ivhu rakaoma, ita kuti riwedzere kunetseka nekushanda mune mamwe humus.

"Chikamu" Hachisi Chichienderana Ne "Nhengo"

Ini nomudzimai wangu tinogara kumaodzanyemba kweNew England. Asi isu tizororoka kakawanda kuchamhembe kweNew England. Lupine inokura sango kumativi ose uko. Iwe haugone kuharasikirwa iyo muchero kana ichinyura. Maine, New Hampshire, uye Vermont kunyange kutamba lupine festivals. New Hampshire's (yakachengetwa muSuar Hill, muVhite Mountains) ndiyo inonyanya kuzivikanwa yeiyi.

Pane imwe nguva, patakanga tichienda kuWhite Mountains kuNew Hampshire, takafamba nemusango wemafuta akatungamirirwa nemukadzi wandakatumidza Wildflower Wilma kune imwe nzvimbo. Ndaifara kutaura naWilma pamusoro pemiti yose yemusango yatakange tichisangana nayo, saka ndakafunga kuti ndicho chinhu chakasikwa zvikuru munyika kuti nditaure kuti ndaive ndichiyemura zvivako zvakakura zve lupine mumasanganiswa akavhenganiswa ayo anotarisana nemigwagwa yekumusoro kweNew England . Ini ndakabatwa-kurinda nemhinduro yake, iyo yakaratidza kusazvidza kwemapine maitiro andakanga ndava kuda.

Saka chii chingaita kuti mumwe munhu anotungamirira maruva emusango aende kunopesana nemafuta akanaka emusango (munyaya iyi, mhuka inonzi Lupinus polyphyllus )? Zvakanaka, mhinduro yacho iri muchokwadi chokuti haasi miti yose yemusango inowanzobereka mbeu, uye humwe hwakanaka hwakanga hwakandifadza chaizvoizvo hwakange husiri hwemunhu kuNew Hampshire. Uyu mutorwa lupine akaita kuti nduru idonhe kubva kumadokero kweNorth America. Sezvazvakazoitika, Wilma akanga asiri ruzha rwemusango wemusango sezvo akanga ari munharaunda yemunharaunda anofarira.
