FOREWORD
Methodological mean Methodological advice f o r p r e p a r a t io n o f i n d i v i d u a l
works’ is intended for teachers and students of Gardening and Agricultural Technologies of
Landscaping Faculty of Kaunas College. The aim of methodological mean i s t o p r o v i d e
main methodological indications for preparation of individual works of students, to improve the
quality of prepared study written papers because in the study programs of higher educational
institutions, much attention is given to different papers prepared during the learning period. They
are an important part of studies process revealing the maturity of students’ knowledge, abilities
and competence.
There are no common standards of individual works preparation applied for all higher
educational institutions of Lithuania because the requirements for papers quality are always
changing. Every educational institution develops its own study papers writing and formalization
norms.
The aim of preparation of student’s individual works is to gather the material and to
describe it from the chosen aspect or try to supplement already known matters as well as to raise
possible further aim and tasks of analysis. The first papers of this type prepared by a student can
not yet amount or even be considered scientific papers, however, they develop the skills of
scientific paper preparation as well as help to find a characteristic speaking manner, to learn to
formulate the thesis on the basis of the most important theoretical reasonings related to the chosen
topic of individual paper. Besides, correct quotation, formulating of own thoughts as well
as their provision skills are already applied in individual papers. When writing individual
papers, student moves step by step from easier matters to more complicated ones, gathers and
systemizes the information. In this way, students learn to perform a systematical and motivated
work.
Individual written papers involve papers, reports of different researches, notes,
documentary reports, thesis, seminars and other papers depending on study programme and the
content and volume of the delivered subject.
Individual Paper is appointed for students aiming to help the students to connect the
theoretical knowledge with practical skills, to deepen the theoretical knowledge of delivered
subject, to develop the ability to assess, analyze and summarize the theoretical material, to
stimulate to provide the conclusions, to develop individual work skills, ability to analyze,
creativity and self-expression.
Summarization of Individual Paper of a student can be considered the activity w h i c h :
•
helps to achieve the level of knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to perform a concrete
4
task;
•
educates the skills and abilities which enable to increase the self-efficiency of educational
process;
5
• helps to form an appropriate psychological attitude for cognitive activity;
• makes favourable conditions to develop the thinking processes;
• takes place without a direct participation of an educator but by only making a
consultation.
Material provided in methodological mean is of recommendatory kind, thus, every
teacher has an ability to choose the most suitable to him forms of individual work and to prepare
individual m e t ho d o lo g i c a l i n d i c a t io ns o f I n d i v i d u a l P a p e r p e r fo r m i n g o f his
subject
(module). It is important to understand the key aim of the paper. When preparing the
methodologies of individual papers of a subject it is the most important to achieve the aims of
study programme and subject, to tech the students to think, identify the fact and opinion, make
conclusions and summarizations, communicate and collaborate, to reveal potential possibilities of
every student by aiming to achieve a self-expression and self-realization in order to d e v e l o p
an individual work into creative activity, i.e. the highest expression of consciousness.
We don’t consider this methodological mean perfect, however, we expect that it will be
useful for teachers and students and experienced colleagues will be stimulated to share their
experience. With your help, this mean will be developed further.

1. C O N C E P T I O N O F STUDENTS INDIVIDUAL PAPER
Individual Paper of students is an important constituent part of nonuniversity study.
Study quality and education of students depend very highly on how students’ individual work
is organized, controlled, assessed and provided with reference as well as other education
means, what is students motyvation and preparation to perform individually study tasks.
Teacher prepares a model of individual work organizing in a subject. The aim of this
model is to emphasize the individual work organizing in a subject stages and forms of
individual paper.
The aim of individual work is to develop students’ self-sufficiency skills when solving
and performing concrete tasks as well as organizing their practical application.
Tasks of individual work organization:
1. To prepare the methodology of individual work organization and assessment i n
theoretical lectures.
2. To prepare the methodology of individual work tasks preparation and tasks of
individual work.
3. To prepare the system of individual work tasks assessment and to determine the
criteria. When solving the raised tasks in a subject, individual work can be
realized in separate stages (Pic. 1.1.).

One the same student learns in different situations differently. His deep or shallow attitude
depends on academical task. Shallow attitude does not have anything common with
wisdom and for this reason it is related very much with aimless accumulation. It belongs to
artificial learning world in which understanding was changed into exact unused knowledge
fragments regeneration aiming to please the teacher and get a positive evalaution.
Deep attitude impersonate the learning type which teachers expect from the students.
Deep attitude provides the students with the possibility to manage and explain the world outside
of higher school using the academical knowledge. By learning namely in this way, the result
having certain general features are achieved: clear structure, strong base of scientific knowledge,
ability to apply own and other people ideas in new situations, knowledge integrity.
Thus, teachers, when preparing the tasks of individual works of a subject and the
methodological indications of their preparation, should consider the year (semester) of study of
the student, if he will have enough knowledge of other subjects for full performing of given
10
task.
11
Volumes of Individual Works should also depend on the complexity of solved problem and final
result delivery form. When determining number of hours necessary for the performing of
Individual Work, a teacher has to follow to the fact that student needs in two times more time
to perform an Individual Work than a teacher performing the same work. Leading
recommendations of time and volumes are provided in Table 1.4.

Students’ individual work quality improvement means:
• to actualize the students’ individual works tasks, to predetermine the tasks educating the
study professionalization or their component parts (group work, problematic teaching, project
work, etc.) as well as interactive study tasks;
• regular renewal of individual work tasks (every 2-3 years);
• to stimulate the students’ individual work self-assessment;
• to differentiate the tasks of individual work (papers, analytical works, researches,
projects, etc.). To differentiate the tasks of individual work in respect of the variety of
students education;
• to stimulate that individual works were discussed in seminars, classes, etc;
• to individualize more the tasks of Individual Work in higher study stages. The number
of study subjects of Individual Work tasks should usually be equal to n-1, where n is a
number of sudy subject credits.

2. FORMS OF INDIVIDUAL WORKS
2.1.
Preparation for intermediate credits, performing and defence of
practical works
The methods of students’ individual work organization make a common harmonous
system. Different frontal, group, individual and integrated work compositions are possible. Every
teacher chooses appropriate forms of Individual Work according the specifics of the delivered
subject.
The aim of this methodological advice is to provide main methodological, work content
and formalization requirements applied for making the prepared study works.
30 per cent of all hours intended for Individual Work in a subject are appointed for the
preparation of intermediate tests, performing and defence of Practical Works.
The aim of intermediate tests is to give the student a possibility to prove that he h a s
a c h i e v e d the aims stated in the programme of a subject. Their purpose is to determine the
level of subject aims achievement.
When starting to deliver a subject, a teacher, aiming to motivate for subject studies,
provides to students t he subject programme, indicates its goals,
gives the examples o f
int er mediat e tests and exams tasks, topics, questions, their organization order as well as resuls
assessment criteria.
Before every practical work, a student has to get acquainted with the topics which must
be repeated before performing a practical work, the aims and tasks of work, self-control
questions at every practical work. Before performing a Practical Work, a student is given a task
of Practical Work and work proceeding description (Annex 1) according which Practical Work is
performed individually by consulting with a teacher. Having performed the work, a student must
defend it.
2.2. Paper
Paper is an individual study work intended to analyze in more detail a concrete
theoretical problem or to summarize the empirical data.
The aims of the Paper is to stimulate the students to deepen more into some issues of the
studied subject, to develop the ability to use references, to form the skills of material
summarization and conclusions delivery.
Paper aims for the following:
14
• to reveal the creativity of students and their ability to choose the most suitable
authors, to envisage the essence of their work and to convey persuasively this essence
in writing;
15
•
by a written paper to show the students’ ability to analyze purposefully and
logically the gathered knowledge, analyzed problems and to perform scientific
summarization;
• by a verbal presentation of a paper to provide the students additional possibilities
to answer the questions of students and teachers, to demonstrate the knowledge
of the analyzed topic, to gain auditorium management skills.
Paper (of I level) it is a study paper briefly dealing with one topic of studied subject, a
summary of one or several quotations and their logical arrangement.
Paper (of II level) it is a study paper dealing with the essence of a question, brief
content of a book or article.
Paper (of III level) it is a study paper, the essence of which is made of logical
arrangement of exist ing in scient ific lit erature conceptions or attitudes on a certain
problem (topic).
Papers can be provided in two ways:
• In writing;
• In writing together with verbal presentation.
Paper can be individual and group (in the latter case by indicating t h e i n p u t o f
every student to work).
A concrete volume and complexity level of a Paper is determined by the teacher who
can indicate also key requirements when preparing the methodological indications of Paper
preparation, for example.:
•
volume of paper is at least ten pages of A-4 format;
•
usage of at least five authors.
When preparing the Papers and aiming for the quality of individual study works, the below
given structure (Table 2.2.1) and assessment criteria (Table 2.2.3) of Paper are recommended.

Topics of Papers are usually provided by a teacher of they are chosen from a given list
by the students themselves. The quality of Paper usually depends on how students are able to
prepare for Paper writing. In order the students could prepare better for Individual Paper,
leading stages of Paper preparation are recommended (Table 2.2.2).

Concepts related to the analyzed topic are corrected
Attitudes to the analyzed topics of different authors are analyzed and summarized
The attitude of the author (student) is also inserted and assessed
Statements of other authors and their works results should be denied with arrogance
Every chapter must be completed: it must include the beginning, analysis and

2.3. Preparation for a seminar
Depending on the form of the seminar (analyzing of issues, reading of papers, mixed),
a plan of seminar is provided the aims of which is to develop the ability to think critically,
solve problems, exercise the oratory abilities and to formulate own attitude.
It is very important to think well and provide for students in advance the preparation
15
for a seminar task as well as participation in a seminar assessment criteria . Because the
main feature of seminars is discussions. It is the most popular teaching method of small groups.
Key aims of discussions are the following: to develop the ability to think critically, t o form
democracy and other abilities as well as cognitive skills. This method is the most suitable to
deliver the opposite understood matters, to change the attitudes of students, teach to solve the
problems, develop the oratory skills, participate in discussions by listening the opponents,
evaluating the provided arguments, formulating own attitude and not giving up to emotions.
This method is recommended to be chosen for teachers not respecting the schedule of
activities. This method is is not very suitable for information transfer. Seminars must be planned
in advance. In this case, planning has specific features.
First of all, the topic, aim and general basis for discussion of seminar is intended (a book,
television programme, excursion and so on), i.e. what will be spoken about during the seminar. It
is very important that students had specific knowledge on the issues on which discussions will be
made.
During a discussion, the roles of the teacher and students must be clearly defined. A
seminar takes place successfully provided that the teacher knows when and how he can interrupt.
The teacher has to follow that the students don’t loose the topic, to emphasize the incorrectly
given facts and logical mistakes and in respect of this to manage the seminar. It is very important
to think well over and provide to students a preparation to seminar task and participation in the
seminar assessment criteria.
2.4. Excursion
EXCURSION (according the Tourism Law of the Republic of Lithuania) is visiting of
objects and places during a trip of up to one day according the settled route or a trip with a
guide.
EXCURSION (according a vocabulary of international words) [lot. excursio ’a hit’] is a
collective visiting of a museum, place of interest, exhibition and so on: trip, excursion, picnic to
some place on the purposes of education, science, sport or entertainment.
Types of excursions:
1. Excursions are made to make impression, experience, amusements and to experience the
difference of values:
•
excursions – tastings;
•
excursions – concerts;
•
excursions – fairs;
•
excursions – impression;
16
•
excursions – amusements.
2. Scientific – investigatory type, efficient emphasizing the meaning of demonstrated objects,
illustration of theory by real authentic views (teaching process is transferred from auditorium to
natural surrounding):
•
excursions – expeditions;
17
•
excursions - lessons.
Excursions are classified as follows: according the content excursions are divided into
survey (multitopical) and topical; according the participants, excursions can be individual, group,
for children, adults, etc. According the form, excursions can be: walking, expedition, lesson,
advertisement, concert, experimental and educational. The duration of excursions is from 45 min
to one day.

Disclosure
It is a disclosure of the chosen topic during
the excursion. It should include 60 per cent
of main information.
5 per cent of information is intended for
individual reception of information or by
questioning the guide during the excursion
End of excursion
Takes place by not showing anything,
however, it is a logical finishing of
excursion by just summarizing what have
been heard, seen and experienced. This part
can involve about 15 per cent of
information
At the end the participants are informed
about further their actions
If the teacher leads the excursion,
the principals of didactics should be
applied: scholarliness, connection

Teacher summarizes the results of
excursion feedback
Teacher plans the form, time, duration and tasks of excursion. Before the excursion, the
teacher introduces to the students the form, time, duration and aims as well as goals of the tasks.
Besides, methodological indications for the excursion and their assessment criteria must be
prepared for students.
2.5. Announcement
Announcements can be made in different topics. Besides, it is intended for solving of
delicate, actual problems of a particular field as well as practical
suggestions and
recommendations are often conveyed. Sometimes, the announcement discloses the activity
18
programme for a concrete period.
Announcement should be logical and comprehensive but brief, convincing, clear and
fluent. It should not be long: 10-45 minutes with introduction, delivery, all logical evidence
and conclusions.
19
There are very different types of announcements, however, in individual study works,
informational, discussion and scientific announcements are most oftenly used
(Table 2.5.1).

determined by scientific branch itself; the nature of object, method and concepts argumentation
depending on which field is scientific announcement made.

(saving respect)
Variant II
1. Naming of performed projects
(previous and present)
2. Their critics: good

3. Suggested project
4. Why is it better?
Variant III
1. Occurred state
2. Necessity to find a recourse
3. Possible recourse
4. Suggested recourse
5. Why is it better?
When criticizing, it is necessary to emphasize also good features of a phenomenon or
project; mistakes and perfection, inaccuracies and other bad points must be indicated.
Presentation of programme or a project without providing the critics of the others is also
possible, when having analyzed one project or programme (it can be also of opponents), all
possible positive points are mentioned and after the advantages of the second project or
programme are explained followed by the provision of novelties of own project or programme in
order to prove why it is better than the presented previous good and very good projects and
programmes.
When preparing the methodological indications of the announcement, the following
evaluation criteria of the announcement are recommended:
1. Self-sufficiency of a student.
20
2. Presentation of announcement (it is recommended also to assess the oratory abilities).
3. Correct delivery of visual means.
4. Retaining the structure of announcement.
5. Disclosure of additional knowledge (eg. literature survey).
21
6. Results analysis(statistical analysis).
7. Reasoning of conclusions.
2.6. Individual work of problematic learning
Creative learning processes are not possible without problematical methods. When
solving a problem, it is important to understand the task and to look for the answer. During the
paper preparation process, large self-expression possibilities occur, especially contributing to the
formation of scientific world-view.
In the individual work of problematic learning, the largest emphasis is made to the
problems which students will face in professional activity. Problematic individual works
stimulate students to apply a deep attitude to the solution of a problem, to be responsible for
made decisions and help to educate the need of constant improvement.
Problematic individual works can be of several levels:
Level I is applied when the educator provides, forms and solves an educational
problem and students solve analogical tasks individually.
Level II is applied when the educator provides and forms a problem but does not
indicate exact solving methods. Students look for them individually, solve problems and make
decisions.
Level III is applied when the educator only ind icat es t he scientific problem but does
not formulate it. Students discuss the problem individually, look for solution methods and solve it
as well as make motivated decisions.
Problematic individual study works can be of various forms chosen by the lecturer
considering the aims and goals of study programme or subject (module).
2.7. Semester paper
In semester paper, theoretical, application or practical problems of smaller scope are
solved. They can be descriptive, analytical, application type and scientific investigative.
The aims of semester paper are to develop the ability of students to use the reference and
other information sources, analyze and systemize the data, assess and summarize the information,
formulate the conclusions and suggestions as well as work individually.
A student receives the methodological indications of paper with indicated topic, paper
plan, content, reference and other issues related to the chosen paper topic.
22
A lecturer consults the student and makes remarks and suggestions. For crediting, a
student must provide a fully arranged and corrected paper and to present it to all group.
Presentation should take up to 10 min.

2.8. Report of professional activity and specialization practice
During the practice, students perform tasks which are indicated in the methodological
indications of subject practice (Annex 4). Having performed the tasks, students prepare a practice
report. Practice report is prepared according the methodological indications of report arrangement
provided by a lecturer. Practice report is recommended to be arranged according the following
structure:
1. Title page.
2. Content.
3. Introduction.
4. Tasks of analyzed topic.

2.9. Report of final practice
The aims of final practice are indicated in study programme. The volume of practice
is 6 credits.
Practice is performed in governmental and private institutions and organizations.
Student chooses the place of practice himself or it is suggested by a department. Practice tutor is
appointed by a department. Before leaving to practice, students are given instruction. A
programme is adjusted with t h e t u t o r s of practice and final paper. The aims and tasks are
provided in a programme of final practice subject. At the end of practice, student prepares a
practice report, provides it to the tutor of practice in the company and receives his feedback and
evaluation according 10-points system. It is recommended to make a practice report in the
following form:
1. Title page.
2. Filled appointment to practice (tripartite agreement of practice performing) and
response with evaluation received by practice tutor in the company.
3. Introduction.
4. Object characteristics.
5. Analysis of applied in the company technologies and other activity indicators
according company activity fields, considering practice aims and tasks.
6. Conclusions.
7. Recommendations.
Report is formalized according general written study works requirements and is
presented to practice tutor at the determined time. Practice defense time is determined by to
practice tutor.
2.10. Project work
In a professional human activity, more and more often the priority is given to a creative
and individual problems solution, abilities to work in a team, to communicate and collaborate. In
a learning process, project is a scheduled and organized activity the aim of which is to
overcome and solve the task.
25
When participating in a project activity, a student changes not only an objective reality
for more effective its functioning but also changes himself by improving his experience,
knowledge, abilities and developing his professional qualification.
Since the performing of project is based on learning in groups, the participants of
project get a chance to face in reality unexpected, even conflict situations during collaboration
and it improves communication abilities, personal features of a student and activity skills.
Didactical features of projects are as follows:
•
students must be open for new ideas, conceptions, they have to take initiative, choose
and make conclusions by themselves;
•
students face real problems occurring in real life and they are particularly motivated by
this;
•
during the project, theoretical and practical learning take place;
•
different matters are integrated in practical and theoretical level;
•
students have a possibility to feel their influence to the implementation of the project,
responsibility for made by them decisions and activity;
•
teacher communicate with students as an advisor and partner;
•
the final product of the project is thesis, announcement, exhibition, engineering project
and so on. Project individual work teaches students the following:
•
to see a problem or task;
•
to define them;
•
to make correct decision;
•
to solve a problem or task.
During the project, factors influencing the individual activity of students are also developed:
•
initiativie, ingenuity, intelligence;
•
planning of own work;
•
analysis of factors having influence to solution of problems;
•
search of necessary information;
•
ability to choose the necessary material;
•
ability to base a research on the chosen material, available or obtained data;
•
ability to analyze the results;
•
ability to integrate the knowledge of several subjects;
•
ability to trust in own mind and be realistic;
•
participation in gathering and treatment of data;
•
criticism;
26
•
suitable finishing of work and conclusions formulation.
When preparing the methodological indications and tasks for project individual work, a teacher
has to plan them appropriately by indicating project limits (how much time and resources can be
appointed for that), project implementation plan and evaluation of every member of team.
2.11. Integrated individual work
Recently, united, holistic and education principal is emphasized in the practice of
pedagogical theory as well as education institutions. The essence of united attitude is ’everything
exists in the context of interaction, relation and essence and that every change and event
conditions a c h a n g e o v e r o f a l l making, let it be small and that never phenomena realized
individually cannot be fully understood..’ (R. Miller, p.24.) Understanding of united
education is based on the attitude that the world is an integrated entirety in which everything is
related. In the united education understanding, main role falls to the relations of personality
(intellectual, emotional, physical, spiritual, etc.) as well as of individual matters, methods,
education aims and tasks, separate concepts, etc. Theoretical education integration fundamentals
were analyzed by J. Laužikas who paid much attention to the integrality of education process and
stated that a man wants to be integral from his origin. However, sometimes in the education
process the principal of integration is not followed:
•
either active or provisional methods are overvaluated;
•
a ratio of freedom and discipline is not retained: it is tended to extremities and
one-sidedness;
•
the integrality of content is not retained: without interrelation, even relative
matters and separate topics are provided.
Thus, the most important objective of integral pedagogic is physical and spiritual
integrity of educated person as well as development of his individuality and preparation for
harmonious connection with the world.
The essence of integrated individual work is common aim of work, subject tasks,
subject and common consultations, presentation of work and its evaluation under participation of
the teachers of all integrated subjects.
Objectives of integrated individual work are the following:
•
to integrate inter subjective knowledge and abilities;
•
to gain knowledge by studying individually;
•
to improve and develop communicational abilities;
•
to develop problems solving abilities;
27
•
to stimulate the motivation, curiosity and creativity;
28
•
to learn to work in groups and manage group projects (when preparing group individual
works).
When preparing to perform integrated individual works, it is very important
communication and collaboration by discussing the works, tasks, their performing methods
and proceeding. We suggest the steps of recommendational type (Table 2.11.1).

2.12. Preparation of scientific articles
Every student who dreams of professional career must be acquainted with writing
fundamentals of scientific articles and announcements, to know how to speak to auditorium,
communicate in a group, to be able to provide data in text and illustrations, to prepare
scientific presentations and other matters which improve and make easier communication
skills. Articles can be of two types: scientific and popularization (Table 2.12. 1)

Are not numbered in a content and after dotted line page numbers are indicated (Annex 8).
Introduction. Introduction deals with reasoning of topic choice, its actuality and novelty are

The description of personal researches results should not start with the following words: ’I
have made aan investigation’, ’I have found’, etc. It is better to use the following impersonal
words compounds : ’it has been determined’, ’it has been investigated’ and so on.

emphasis must be made on’, ’it should be noticed that’ and so on.

differences and tables would include more information. Every table or picture (graphs, diagrams
are marked in study papers as pictures) must be numbered and necessarily discussed in the text.
Most part of tables and pictures can be provided in annexes. However, also in annexes given
material must be discussed in the text. Text or annexes should not include illustrations
(pictures, graphs, tables) material which has not been analyzed in the text.

subchapter, after the number of picture and only then its title. Diagrams are not separately

Place of practice: Collectional growing territory of outside flowers of Landscaping Faculty
parterres of the faculty.
Information. August. Perennial flowers are fertilized the last time by phosphorus and
potassium fertilizers. In the second half of the month, till the middle of September, peonies and
lilies are replanted. Seeds of annual and perennial flowers are gathered.
Annual flowers with finished vegetation are pulled out. Biennial flowers can be planted
instead of them.
September. At this time, a big emphasis is made to the order of a parterre. It should be
known which plants will be replanted. In autumn, before planting perennial flowers, soil must be
fertilized; it is also done before planting of bulbous flowers. The overground part of perennial
flowers is cut. The soil around the plants is mulched with peat.
October. It is possible to prepare the soil from the autumn for some annual flowers,
especially for those which do not tolerate replanting. It is very important to plant blublous flowers
timely in order to grow up the roots till frost. The best time to pant most of bulbous flowers of
spring blossom is from the end of September to the beginning of October.
November. When the soil freezes in one centimetre or two, fastidious plants should be
mulched. This process should not be performed earlier because when the ground is not still frozen,
the plants can reek or gnawed by mise. It‘s time to plan the quantities of necessary chemicals and
fertilizers as well as tools and other means for flowers growing.
Work proceeding:
1. To analyze the reference about maintenance works of outside flowers (in autumn).
2. To make a plan of seasonal works (August-November).
REVISION QUESTIONS:
1. When are perrenial flowers fertilized the last time?

Kaunas Botanical Park of Vytautas Magnus University.
Information. Bulbous flowers are attributed to a group of perennial flowers. Their stems
under the ground have changed into bulbs. Bulbous flowers reproduce by bulbs. A ratio of
reproduction of different bulbous flowers genuses, species and even breed is not equal. Small
bulbous flowers reproduce more quickly (bluebells, Muscari, Glory-of-the-snow, snowflakes, some
breeds of tulips and narcissuses). Hyacinths, some lilies and eritrones reproduce slowly.
Most bulbous flowers, except Galtonias, winter in soil.
Bulbous flowers are planted in autumn. The depth of bulbs planting depends on the size of a
bulb and soil characteristics. The bulbs of most outside flowers are planted in a depth of the height
of three bulbs (tulips, narcissuses, hyacinths). In heavier soil they are planted more shallow, in more
light soil they are planted deeper.
The planting depth of lilies bulbs depends on the morphological pecularities of the plant.
Work proceeding:
1. A classification of bulbous flowers learnt during the theoretical and practical activities is
repeated.
2. To get acquainted with the morphological features of the bulbs of bulbous flowers.
3. To know how to reproduce the bulbous flowers.
4. To write the reproduction pecularities of bulbous flowers in table 1.

Place of practice: Educational greenhouse of Landscaping Faculty.
Information. Plants are reproduced in seeds and vegetatively. Every reproduction method has its
advantages and disadvantages. A quicker way of reproduction is by seeds, however, some plants
develop from seeds for long time: the start blooming only in the 3rd – 4th year and not always
transfer the features of original plant. Especially vary xenogamious plants. Here the heredity is
transferred through the genes in germ cells of the plant. Such cells are in a germ of a cell.
Intercrossed plants create new combinations of genes, this way making the background for
making of new species of flowers.
Vegetatively reproduced plants bring the heredity genes in somatic cells which are located
through all the plant. In many cases, somatic cells transfer teh features of original plant, however,
this way it is impossible to grow immediately a large number of new plants. A microclonal method
of vegetative reproduction develop when new plants are grown from mother part of a plant (bulbous
plants from juicy onoin shells).
Work proceeding:
1. To analyze the reference about flowers reproduction.
2. Choose the substrates for flowers reproduction.
3. Prepare the slips for reproduction and reproduce them.
REVISION QUESTIONS:
1. Main flowers reproduction methods?
2. Describe the substrates the most suitable for the reproduction of flowers for green houses

Kaunas Botanical Park of Vytautas Magnus University.
Informacija. Perennial outside plants meet the period of calmness by loosing a larger part
of overground organs. Only their changed underground stems, roots or growing (wintering) buds in
the ground winter. Perennial flowers prepare in advance for calmness period (wintering). Growing
buds form from the end of summer to the beginning of autumn (peonies, larkspurs, astilbes,
aconites, Sunflowers, etc. ). These are mostly high plants.
Vegetative stems of some perennial flowers winter (Moss Pinks, Caucasian, Rocky and
other species of Orpines, visžalės rudgrūdėlės, etc.). They are protected from freeze by the leaves
of other plants and snow layer. Younger plants are more freeze-resistant.
Perennial not wintering outside flowers are the plants originated from warm countries. They
are crocosmias, galtonias, gladiolus, acidantheras - corm plants; tuberous begonias - tuber flowers,
dahlias - tuber plants. In Lithunia these plants winter inside.
All wintering with leaves flowers should be digged out before freeze and to keep during the
winter in light cool place. Outside grown Pelargoniums, fuchsias, lanthanuns as well as carpeting
flowers grown for spring reproduction are digged out before frosts. Dahlias are digged out after
frosts.
At the end of September or at the beginning of October, gladiolus, crocosmias, acidantheras,
canas and galtonias are digged out. Gladiolus are digged out on a sunny day. The leaves are taken
our and a stick of 3 – 5 cm near the corm is left. Galtonias are first of all dried off in180 C
temperature and after placed in a cool place. Canas and crocosmias are placed in a basement with
all ground. Only overground their part must be cut.
Some of these flowers distinguish by specific digging out and storage technologies,
however, there are also the following general ones:
1. It is digeed by trying not to damage the wintering parts (tubers and corms).
2. Before the digging or having digged out, overground part is cut by leaving short sticks stems.
3. The ground is cleaned and parts of plants are dried off in a sun. Dried ground is shaked one
more time.
4. Parts of plants are placed into boxes and brought to the storage place. Warehouses must be
cleaned and disinfected.
5. Corms of gladiolus are dried for a bout two weeks in 20-300C temperature, old corms and
small tuber buds are separated and a stick of the stem is turned out.
6. If the warehouses are dry and warm, the corms of crocosmias and tubers of tuberous begonias
are kept in a peat.
Work proceeding:
1.
A description of practicum is read.
2.
A list of wintering and not wintering outside flowers is made.
3.
In a place of practice performing, the flowers are identified.
