Lysimachia clethroides
Gooseneck loosestrife
Gooseneck loosestrife is an absolutely unmissable perennial originating from East Asia, where it grows in wet mountain meadows. From summer to early autumn, it produces elegantly arching flower spikes composed of thousands of tiny, pure white stars. This unconventional flower shape will add unusual dynamics to the flower bed. It is an exceptionally hardy and long-lived plant, which you will receive from us as a mature seedling in a pot. Just plant it in loamy or clay soil in full sun or partial shade. Loosestrife loves moisture; it thrives wonderfully near ponds and in the damper parts of the garden. Moreover, its sweetly scented flowers will reliably attract bees and other pollinators. It has something to offer in autumn as well; its matte green leaves beautifully turn into bright yellow-orange shades. It stands out perfectly in groups, holds its shape, needs no support, and does not suffer from pests. If you like creating fresh bouquets, the bent flower spikes will bring you joy. They stay beautiful in a vase for a full ten days, and an interesting fact is that both its flowers and leaves are fully edible.

Lavandula angustifolia
Lavender Rosea
Lavenders are a must for every sunny herb garden. We classify them as sub-shrubs, and they are valuable for gardens due to their winter habit. They add not only color and structure to flower beds but also an unmistakable fragrance. They will look good with lower-growing drought-loving grasses and perennials. Rosea blooms a sweet pink.

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.

Nepeta racemosa
Catmint Walker’s Low
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. Nepeta racemosa naturally grows on dry meadows and rocky, stony slopes from the Caucasus to Central Asia. It has aromatic grey-green leaves and forms a tufted semi-spherical bush. Walker’s Low got its name after an Irish estate where it was bred in 1970. It has the most intense blue-violet flower coloration.

Papaver orientale
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.

Eupatorium maculatum
Joe Pye Weed Atropurpureum
Eupatorium 'Atropurpureum' is a stout and long-lived perennial that will bring a bold vertical element and plenty of life to your garden. In its native range on the damp meadows of North America, it forms dense stands, which is why even in the garden it will appreciate a sunny to semi-shady spot with nutritious, humous, and sufficiently moist soil, whether it is loamy or clayey. You will receive a beautifully grown potted seedling from us, which you just need to transplant to your chosen spot. 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. If you like to decorate your home, you can also use its sturdy stems for cutting into summer bouquets. 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.

Cultivation
You will receive the gooseneck loosestrife as a healthy, well-rooted seedling that you can plant from spring to autumn. This long-lived perennial thrives best in locations where it has plenty of light, but at the same time protection from the harshest midday sun. Sun or partial shade is ideal for it. It needs moist soil in a cooler place in light shade. It does very well in heavier loamy or clay soil that is rich in humus and can retain moisture long-term. It is suitable for the edges of ponds and in perennial beds with guaranteed watering during dry summer periods.
When planting in a bed, maintain a spacing of about 35 centimeters, which corresponds to 7 to 9 plants per square meter. This spacing will give the plants enough room for healthy development and good air circulation. For successful growing, remember the following steps:
- Regular watering: The soil should never completely dry out; loosestrife is a strongly moisture-loving species.
- Spring fertilizing: Adding a layer of quality compost will support lush growth and blooming.
- Removing flowers: During the summer, snip off faded flower spikes for better overall plant vitality.
A great advantage of loosestrife is that it does not suffer from any common diseases and pests avoid it, making its cultivation completely trouble-free even for beginners. If you don't have a spacious garden, you can also grow the seedling in a voluminous pot or planter box on the terrace. In a container, however, the soil dries out faster, so you must monitor daily watering and choose a container with good drainage. The seedling is highly frost-resistant and tolerates temperatures down to -34 °C. It needs no special protection for the winter; the old stems just need to be cut back close to the ground early in the spring.
The information given is based on our experience, please use it as a guide only. Times may vary depending on the season, climate, location, sowing and transplanting dates and possibly also the conditions in the greenhouse/greenhouse. We always recommend testing how the plant performs in your conditions. Please do not take this as a guarantee.

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.

Salvia nemorosa
Woodland Sage Caradonna
This species of sage originally comes from the steppe regions of Central and Eastern Europe. It forms profusely flowering small clumps with straight upright stems. In flower beds, it looks best in groups. Traditionally, due to the identical flowering time, it is planted as a companion to roses. However, it will look just as good in mixed drought-loving steppe plantings with grasses. It lasts 7 days in a vase. The cultivar Caradonna stands out with a long flowering period and dark, almost black-purple stems with tiny purple flowers and dark purple bracts. If we cut it back after flowering, it will bloom again in late August and September.

Perovskia atriplicifolia
Russian Sage
Russian sage reliably brings a touch of sunny steppes into the garden and places almost no demands on care. These sparsely branched subshrubs originally come from harsh, rocky areas from Afghanistan to Tibet, where they grow on open sun-drenched plains. Thanks to its origin, it delights in full sun and poor, well-drained sandy soil with minimal moisture. You will receive from us a well-rooted seedling in a pot, which just needs to be transplanted straight to the chosen spot in the flower bed. It does not need support, is avoided by common pests and diseases, and will survive frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees. It grows up to one hundred and twenty centimeters and forms striking white felted shoots with silvery grey aromatic leaves. From July to October, it blooms with tiny blue-purple flowers that act as a lure for bees and butterflies and are even edible. Russian sage stands out next to drought-tolerant perennials. The flowers are suitable for cutting and drying for winter arrangements. Moreover, the silvery stems will ensure a beautiful winter effect in the flower bed.

Gaura lindheimeri
Gaura Siskiyou Pink
Gaura Siskiyou Pink is a charming perennial that brings lightness and airiness to the garden. Its original native area is in the warm regions of Texas and Louisiana, which is why it thrives in full sun and well-drained sandy soil. It grows in clumps and from June until the autumn frosts produces tiny raspberry-pink flowers that resemble fluttering butterflies. An interesting detail of this variety is the green leaves with a bronze tint and red spots. It is an absolutely undemanding plant, does not suffer from diseases or pests, and even beginners can handle its care. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply need to transplant directly into the flowerbed. Here it complements ornamental grasses perfectly and acts as an attraction for bees and bumblebees. Although it grows more as a short-lived perennial in our climate, in a suitable place it reliably self-seeds. Occasional pinching will encourage richer branching. Gaura is excellent for summer bouquets. We cut the stems for a vase as soon as the first two to three little flowers open.

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. Today, however, you will appreciate it mainly for its low maintenance and unique appearance. Its home is on sunny hillsides and dry meadows, so even in our gardens, it will welcome well-drained, even poorer sandy soil and full sun. It produces upright, sturdy stems topped with blue-purple flowers with prickly bracts, which bring interesting structure and a silvery touch to the flowerbeds.
It is literally a magnetic plant for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies, who find a rich food source on it. Floristically, it is extremely valuable, because its flowers are perfectly suited for cutting as well as drying for winter decorations. 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.

Gaura lindheimeri
Gaura Summer Breeze
The charming gaura comes from the sun-drenched plains of Texas and Louisiana and represents exactly the plant that can liven up any drought-tolerant planting. It is a naturally profusely blooming perennial that delights in full sun and well-drained, sandy, and nutrient-poor soil. You will receive from us an already grown seedling in a pot, which will quickly form a vigorous clump after being transplanted into the garden. From early summer until late autumn, it will delight you with a flood of tiny flowers in pure white and delicate pink tones. The flowers gently sway in the breeze and with their appearance resemble a flock of tiny butterflies, which also really like to land on the plant, as do bees and bumblebees. Although gaura is known as a short-lived perennial, thanks to its willing self-seeding, it will last for many years in your garden. Caring for it is completely undemanding, it is avoided by most diseases and pests, and it can handle frosts down to eighteen degrees below zero without any problems. It is often used in mixed borders, where it beautifully softens the overall impression, and perfectly matches various types of ornamental grasses.
