China aster Matsumoto Pink

The original home of bleeding hearts is Korea and China, where they grow in light deciduous forests. They are classic garden perennials. They will look perfect in nostalgically styled flower beds; the white variant fits well even into naturalistic woodland gardens. They are popular for their heart-shaped flowers hanging on horizontal or arching stems. These weaken and die back some time after flowering; all the plant's energy then concentrates in the roots, and at that moment, we can cut the above-ground part back completely. For the rest of the year, we won't even know the bleeding heart is in the garden. It will remind us of its charm again in the spring. Perfect vase life, at least 7 days. Harvest when the first 3–4 flowers open on the stem. The basic species has pink-white flowers. In spring, the sprouting shoots have a pink tinge.

Avens Tempest Scarlet brings a flood of vibrant colors and spring freshness to the garden. The original species of avens grow in moister but well-drained meadows and light forest edges, which is why they thrive best here in sun or partial shade in humus-rich loamy soil.

Avens are generally very undemanding plants, do not need any support, and effortlessly withstand frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees. The Tempest Scarlet cultivar was bred in Scotland and stands out with the deep scarlet color of its semi-double, slightly ruffled flowers, which bloom on long branched stems from May to July. After a summer break, it will often delight you with another blooming in the autumn. With its clumping growth, it will eventually form a nice ground cover, and its flowers attract bees and butterflies. It is an excellent perennial for mixed flowerbeds as well as for cutting. We harvest the stems for bouquets as soon as about a quarter to half of the flowers are open. It will stay beautiful in a vase for about seven days, but it is not suitable for drying. Common pests and diseases avoid it, making it an ideal choice for complete beginners.

An original wild perennial with a large distribution area from Europe to Siberia. Suitable for natural and wild plantings. It grows in meadows and dry grassy places.

It suits sun and partial shade, and will most appreciate ordinary loamy and well-drained soil. It forms a basal rosette of leaves and in spring sends up stems up to one hundred and twenty centimeters tall. As a short-lived perennial, it self-seeds in a suitable location, so you will not lose it. The flowers bloom during May and attract bees, butterflies, and bumblebees from afar. It is an extremely undemanding plant without pests, surviving severe frosts around minus twenty-eight degrees. Since the entire plant is poisonous, it is mainly suitable for ornamental flowerbeds. It serves excellently for floristic purposes and in bouquets. Stems with bells stay fresh in a vase for six to eight days. This variety blooms abundantly right in its first year and has a very distinct pattern in the throat.

The 'Joan Elliott' cultivar is exceptional for its early start to blooming and the intense coloring of its flowers, which are arranged in dense clusters on sturdy stems. It is not demanding in terms of care, gets by without support, and successfully resists diseases and pests. Moreover, it is incredibly frost-hardy and can handle temperatures well below freezing without issues. A healthy, rooted plant in a pot will arrive at your home, ready for immediate planting in your flowerbed. It will look its best alongside other perennials and will reliably attract a number of bees. Bellflowers are an excellent choice for anyone who loves fresh bouquets. The sturdy stems just need to be cut for a vase, where they will delight you for up to two weeks.

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.

Here, it will quickly form a massive clump of sturdy, dark red-purple stems that grow up to two meters tall and do not need support. During the summer, from July to September, huge flat inflorescences up to twenty-five centimeters in diameter open at their tops. These light purple to pink flowers emit a pleasant fragrance and act as a literal magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. It is a completely undemanding plant avoided by pests and diseases, and it easily survives even very severe frosts well below minus thirty degrees. Eupatorium works excellently as a striking solitary plant in the back of a flowerbed or near water features.

In the autumn, it pays off not to remove the faded inflorescences, because when covered with frost in the winter months, they create a magnificent spectacle in the flowerbed.

Mullein is a native European perennial that brings a piece of wild nature's magic to gardens. In the wild, you will most often find it growing on sunny, rocky hillsides and drier grassy spots, where it withstands a lack of water well.

For bees, bumblebees, and plenty of other beneficial pollinators, mullein is a huge attraction and a rich source of food. If you enjoy making bouquets from your own garden, you will certainly appreciate that it is perfectly suited for cutting into summer vases, where it brings a bit of meadow relaxation. In addition, you can let the faded, sturdy stems dry and use them for winter decorations or other floral creations. The 'Sixteen Candles' cultivar stands out with a beautiful detail in the form of striking, purple-fuzzed stamens that decorate the center of each flower. These form an interesting contrast to the green to gray-green felted leaves. You will receive an already nicely grown seedling from us, which you can simply transplant into your bed and immediately watch how it thrives.

Fernleaf Yarrow originates from the Caucasus and Central Asia. Unlike Common Yarrow, it grows in clumps and is also suitable for drying. Cutting back soon after flowering encourages re-blooming.

It is a classic perennial for cutting into bouquets, where, in addition to colorful flowers, it also delights with a gentle fragrance. We harvest as soon as roughly half the flowers in the inflorescence have bloomed; then they last up to 10 days in a vase. Despite efforts to breed the most resistant cultivars, it remains true that Phlox reacts extremely sensitively to climate and soil conditions, so we carefully pay attention to the correct choice of site. The Sweet Summer series includes cultivars bred for greater resistance to fungal diseases. The Sweet Summer Fragrance cultivar has sweet pink flowers, lighter to white in the center with a purple eye.

The Heidi columbine brings unprecedented lightness and romance to any garden. In the wild, it grows across Europe, where it most often colonizes the edges of groves and moister mountain meadows.

And the taste for travel has remained with the hollyhock. It often self-seeds and you will find it in a place where you certainly didn't plant it. Naturally, it is a biennial or short-lived perennial. However, its instability is balanced by beautiful double flowers and a distinct silhouette and height.

Since the mid-19th century, it has also become naturalized in private gardens and became a classic cut perennial. In the garden, it applies excellently in modern-style steppe beds with grasses and drought-tolerant perennials, to which it adds airiness and lightness. The 'Flamingo' cultivar boasts a flood of tiny double flowers in a tender pink color, which last on the plant from July to September. The plant requires full sun and very well-drained, ideally sandy soil, because its deep taproots cannot stand winter dampness. Thanks to them, however, it resists drought excellently and is fully frost-resistant. For florists, baby's breath is indispensable, whether for fresh summer bouquets or for drying, as it retains its shape and color even after drying.

Mentha spicata, known as Moroccan mint, will bring not only a wonderful fragrance to your garden but also a piece of honest herbalist tradition.

We send customers already mature seedlings in a pot, which you can easily transplant directly into the garden. Here, phlox thrives best in a sunny to semi-shady location with loamy, humous, and well-drained soil. It is ideal to keep a spacing of about fifty centimeters when planting so that each clump has enough space to grow. They like plenty of moisture, and stable humidity is important to them. During severe drought, they can react sensitively and be more susceptible to powdery mildew, so they will welcome more abundant watering in the hot summer. Fortunately, you don't have to worry about pests; they avoid it. As for winter, you can throw your worries behind you, because the plant can handle severe frosts down to minus thirty-four degrees. In ornamental beds, phlox stands out both individually in larger groups and in combination with other summer perennials or shorter ornamental grasses.
