Malva moschata f. alba
Musk Mallow Alba
Musk mallow is an undemanding native perennial that will win you over with its adaptability and historical charm. Since ancient times, its leaves, flowers, and unripe seeds have been used in the kitchen as a vegetable and herb; in the 16th century, it was even considered a panacea. Today we appreciate it primarily for its ability to quickly fill empty spaces in newly established flower beds. It looks very spectacular right in the first season and attracts attention at a time when other perennials are still taking their time.
The cultivar Alba boasts pure white flowers that look very elegant, whether in the company of roses or in drought-tolerant communities in a sunny location. Although the plant belongs to short-lived perennials, it reliably maintains itself on the site by self-seeding, so you won't lose it. The fragrant and delicate flowers attract bees and are also suitable for cutting into a vase, where they bring the subtle beauty of the countryside into the interior.

Baby's Breath Snowflake
Baby's breath Snowflake is an absolute classic that should not be missing in any traditional or modern garden. This perennial plant originally comes from the sandy steppes and sunny slopes of southern Europe and Central Asia, which predestines it to love full sun and well-drained, even sandy soil. It has been grown in botanical gardens since the eighteenth century, and thanks to its low maintenance, it quickly found its way into private gardens as well. It forms rich, airy clumps that look like white clouds when in bloom and bring a unique lightness to flower beds.
The Snowflake variety stands out with a flood of pure white, mostly double flowers that appear from June to August. It is an ideal plant for modern steppe plantings, where it perfectly complements ornamental grasses and drought-tolerant perennials, but it is also traditionally planted as a delicate companion to roses. For florists, baby's breath is indispensable. It is excellent for cutting into fresh bouquets, where it adds volume and softens the overall impression, and it can just as well be dried for winter decorations. The plant is frost-hardy and long-lived, so it will bring you joy in the garden for many years.

Catananche caerulea
Shoofly plant Blue
Catananche caerulea, commonly known as Cupid's dart, is a charming plant that will win you over with its lightness and airiness. Its scientific name refers to ancient Greek legends, according to which it was used in love potions; today, however, you will appreciate it more for its undemanding nature and unique appearance. It is excellently suited for natural-style gardens, gravel beds, and drought-tolerant plantings, where it beautifully complements other perennials or ornamental grasses. It grows up to ninety centimeters tall and, despite its height, needs no support. The flowers have a lavender-blue color with a darker center and toothed petals at the ends. They bloom gradually from June to September. Cupid's dart loves drought and heat, but on the contrary, it cannot stand winter dampness, which harms it more than frost. If you provide it with a well-drained spot, it will survive temperatures down to -18 °C. It is a rewarding plant for beginner growers and experienced florists alike. Fresh flowers last a week in a vase, but they will bring you the most joy when dried. Harvest them fully open in dry weather and hang them upside down. They will keep their shape and remind you of summer all winter long.

Thanks to its origin, it loves the sun but requires plenty of moisture, so it will thrive in humus-rich and clay soils that do not dry out. It forms upright and dense shrubby clumps that slowly spread into the surroundings through root runners, creating a nice closed stand in the flowerbed over time. Its flowers have the shape of a slender spike with four rows of tubular blooms that resemble Snapdragons in shape and attract bees and bumblebees.

Nepeta faassenii
Catmint Six Hills Giant
Catmints are ideal companions for roses, suitable for naturalistic gardens, and lower species also for boxes and pots. Some of them are an irresistible attraction for cats, caused by the hallucinogen nepetalactone. This should be present in the highest amount in the species Nepeta cataria. Conversely, lemon-scented catmints reportedly do not attract cats. The botanical name Nepeta likely comes from the name of the ancient Etruscan city Nepet - Nepi in the territory of today's Italian province of Viterbo, where the plant was once cultivated. The faassenii group is characterized by vigorous upright growth, fine foliage, and long stems suitable for cutting. Six Hills Giant has a slightly lighter flower color than Walker's Low.

Larkspur Benary’s Pacific Black Knight
The majestic larkspur Benary’s Pacific Black Knight will bring original beauty and a striking vertical structure to your garden. In the wild, the original species of larkspurs grow in lush meadows with nutritious soil. Therefore, in the garden, it will reliably appreciate full sun and sufficiently moist, humous loam. Although it is a perennial for somewhat more advanced growers, with the right approach, it will reward you richly and will survive even extreme winters with temperatures deep below the freezing point without worry. We will deliver a beautifully rooted seedling in a pot, ready for immediate planting in the flowerbed. Do not forget to give it enough space, ideally with spacings around sixty centimeters, and throughout the season, do not forget regular fertilizing. A more airy space will naturally protect the plant from powdery mildew. It works excellently in mixed borders with peonies and roses, providing them with a beautiful dark background. The Black Knight variety stands out with long stems growing up to one hundred and fifty centimeters, which are gradually adorned with deep dark purple flowers from June onwards. These literally attract bees from a wide surrounding area. When growing, keep in mind that it is poisonous and very tasty to slugs in early spring. The firm flower stalks are absolutely ideal for fresh bouquets, where they will stay fresh for about seven days. However, do not place the vase next to ripening fruit, to whose ethylene larkspur is sensitive and would wilt faster. If you want to preserve its beauty longer, try drying it. The dark flowers retain their pigment excellently and will enliven absolutely any dried arrangement.

Larkspur Benary’s Pacific Galahad
Larkspur Benary’s Pacific Galahad is an unmissable classic and a true dominant feature among border perennials. Its wild ancestors originate from the mountain meadows and light forests of the Northern Hemisphere, so even in the garden, it will appreciate a sunny location and well-drained, yet nutrient-rich loamy and humous soil with plenty of moisture. You will receive a mature seedling in a pot from us, which just needs to be transplanted directly into the flowerbed, ideally at a spacing of sixty centimeters, so that it has enough clear space around it for growth. It belongs among plants for intermediate growers, because for its majestic growth to a height of one hundred to one hundred and fifty centimeters, it needs regular fertilizing and copious watering. It is also good to watch out for snails and slugs, which like to feast on its young leaves, and throughout the season to protect the plant from powdery mildew. Larkspur is fully frost-resistant and can handle temperatures dropping to minus thirty-four degrees without difficulty. The entire plant is poisonous, which is good to keep in mind when choosing its spot. You will often see it in the company of roses and peonies, where its pure white flowers form a perfect color contrast. It blooms first in June and, after being cut back in time, usually repeats blooming during August and September. The snow-white flowers reliably attract bees as well as other beneficial pollinators and are an excellent choice for cutting into vases. They will last about seven days in clean water, one just needs to pay attention to the proximity of ripening fruit, because the plant is very sensitive to the released ethylene and would fade faster. If you dry the flowers, they serve excellently for floristic purposes and will retain their shape and fresh color for a long time.

Oriental Poppy Royal Wedding
Oriental poppy Royal Wedding is an unmissable perennial that brings true elegance to the spring garden. It originally comes from the harsher conditions of the Caucasus, Turkey, and Iran, where it grows on sunny rocky slopes and dry meadows. Because of this, it is exceptionally resilient, easily handling frosts down to minus forty degrees, and can do without complex care. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant to a sunny location with well-drained loamy soil. The cultivar Royal Wedding will reward you in May and June with huge bowl-shaped flowers with pure white petals, which hide a distinct dark burgundy spot in their center. Moreover, these enchanting flowers reliably attract pollinators from far and wide. It is typical for Oriental poppies that their strikingly fuzzy green leaves die back soon after flowering. The plant takes a break over the warmest summer to gather strength, and a smaller portion of the leaves often sprouts again only at the end of summer. Therefore, it is ideal to plant the poppy in the flower bed in close proximity to other perennials that sprout slightly later and naturally fill the empty space left by the resting poppy. It avoids diseases and needs no support, reaching a height of around sixty to eighty centimeters. Just watch out for field voles, which might develop a taste for its fleshy roots. Otherwise, it is a long-lived plant that even a complete beginner can handle without worries. Given that the plant is poisonous, it is naturally not intended for consumption. The giant white flowers are also a great attraction for lovers of cut flowers, although they require a little trick. Similar to other poppies, the stems need to be harvested exactly at the moment when the buds begin to color and slightly crack. Right after cutting, we sear the ends of the stems with a flame for about twenty seconds to prevent sap leakage, and then we put them into cold water. Thanks to this procedure, they will stay beautiful for about four days in a vase and add amazing lightness to bouquets. Although these delicate flowers are not suitable for drying, they simply have no competition in fresh spring bouquets.

Quaking grass Limouzi
Quaking grass 'Limouzi' is an undemanding and very charming native grass that naturally grows in sunny meadows and pastures with poorer and well-drained soil. From May onwards, long thin stalks sprout from its dense green clumps, carrying delicate spikelets in the shape of small hearts swaying on them. They are colored in inconspicuous green and brown tones. It is their constant movement and rustling at the slightest breeze that gives the flower beds extraordinary dynamics and lightness. This short-lived perennial, growing to a height of around half a meter, is perfectly suited to complement colorful steppe plantings, where it creates a soft filler between more prominently flowering species. It will also find its use among beginner growers, as it does not suffer from diseases or pests and handles strong frosts without problems. The airy inflorescences of quaking grass are perfect for cutting into summer bouquets and for drying for various floristry purposes. After blooming, roughly at the end of summer, it is good to trim the clumps, which will encourage their fresh appearance. The 'Limouzi' cultivar is characterized by its abundant flower set and slightly more compact growth, which maintains its shape even in more demanding conditions.

Cultivation
Where to put it in the garden
Musk mallow is an undemanding plant that will bring a touch of countryside charm and lightness to your garden. The seedlings you receive primarily need plenty of light to prosper. Choose a location for them in direct sun, or in light partial shade. Soil conditions are not complicated for the mallow – it loves poor, well-draining soil that does not hold water. If you have sandy or rocky soil in your garden where other perennials struggle, the mallow will be right at home here. Conversely, avoid heavy and wet clay soils, which could lead to root collar rot, especially in the winter. Fertilizing is not necessary; in overly nutritious soil, the plant loses its compact shape.
Planting and space requirements
Since it is a taller perennial that grows to a height of 40 to 80 cm, it is important to give it enough space. Maintain a spacing of 50 cm when planting. If you are establishing a larger group, count on 4 to 6 plants per square meter. This spacing will ensure that the plants do not grow into each other and air can circulate freely, which is crucial for preventing mallow rust, which can exceptionally appear. Remove the seedling from its packaging and plant it as deep as it grew in the pot. After planting, water the plant so the soil settles around the roots. During the season, watering is needed only very sparingly (💧💧); the plant manages moisture very efficiently.
Maintenance and culinary use
A great advantage of the mallow is its edibility and usefulness. You can safely use the flowers, leaves, and unripe seeds in the kitchen, for example in salads or as an edible decoration for desserts. In terms of maintenance, the most important task is the cutback after flowering. Once the plant finishes its main wave of blooming, cut it low to the ground or remove the faded stems. This step will rejuvenate the plant, encourage the growth of fresh new leaves, and often trigger a second wave of blooming at the end of summer. Even though it is a short-lived perennial, it reliably maintains itself on the site thanks to self-seeding. Let a few flowers ripen into seeds in the autumn, and you can look forward to new little plants next year.
Options for growing in a planter
Musk mallow can also be successfully grown in containers if you do not have a free flowerbed available. However, given its root system and height, we do not recommend small balcony planters, but rather larger individual pots with a diameter of at least 30 cm. It is essential to ensure perfect water drainage, so check the drainage holes and pour a layer of gravel at the bottom of the container. Use regular gardening substrate mixed with sand in a 2:1 ratio so the soil is airy. Plants in containers cannot reach their roots deep for water, so check them regularly during the summer and water as soon as the surface of the substrate dries out. For winter, it is better to move the container closer to the house wall, even though the plant is frost-resistant.

Malva moschata
Musk mallow
Musk mallow is an undemanding native perennial that will charm you with its gently fragrant, light pink flowers. In the past, it was highly valued; in the 16th century, it was even considered a panacea, and its leaves, flowers, or unripe seeds were commonly consumed as vegetables. Today, we appreciate it in gardens mostly for its ability to quickly fill empty spaces in newly established plantings. It looks impressive already in its first season, drawing attention while other perennials are still slowly gathering strength. Although it is a short-lived perennial, it reliably maintains itself in its location through self-seeding, so you will enjoy its presence for many years. It loves sunny spots with well-drained, even poorer soil. The tender flowers attract bees and other pollinators, and they are also perfectly suited for cutting into summer bouquets.

Alchemilla mollis
Lady's mantle Irish Silk
Alchemilla mollis, known as lady's mantle, is an indispensable perennial for anyone who wants to bring harmony and softness to the garden. Its home is the moister environments of mountain meadows and light forests, making it a very adaptable plant that will survive even severe frosts without problems in our climate. The 'Irish Silk' cultivar is prized for its vitality and abundant blooming, where clouds of tiny, yellow-green flowers float above clumps of gray-green leaves. It is precisely this neutral color that can work wonders in a flower bed – it softens overly sharp contrasts between other flowers and beautifully unifies the entire composition.
Besides its ornamental function, lady's mantle also has practical uses. Thanks to its clumping growth and ability to quickly fill in, it is ideal for edging pathways or as an underplanting beneath taller shrubs and roses. Water droplets catch on its leaves, creating a magical spectacle in the garden. If you enjoy making bouquets, you will love lady's mantle as versatile filler greenery that matches almost anything. It will last beautiful for about ten days in a vase, and its inflorescences can also be easily dried without losing too much of their color or shape. Moreover, it is a magnet for pollinators, and its young leaves are even edible, so it also finds use in a natural kitchen.

Eryngium planum
Sea Holly
Sea holly is an indispensable perennial for all lovers of naturally styled gardens. It earned its folk name - male fidelity - in times when it was used in herbal medicine as an aphrodisiac, and its roots were even candied as sweets in France and England.

It is literally a magnetic plant for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies, who find a rich food source on it.

If you decide not to harvest it, feel free to leave it in the flowerbed all winter. Its silhouette covered in hoarfrost creates a wonderful winter effect. Although it is a short-lived perennial, in a suitable location it reliably self-seeds, so you will enjoy its beauty for many years.
