Blue Moor Grass
Blue moor grass is an elegant and undemanding native grass that livens up the spring garden at a time when other plants are just waking up. In the wild, it naturally grows in warmer areas on rocks and sunny slopes with well-drained soil. It forms dense, neat clumps growing to a height of about thirty centimeters. Its main advantage is its striking grayish-green and dark green leaves, which, with sufficient moisture, remain evergreen all year round. During April and May, the moor grass blooms with interesting brown spikelets. Over time, these flowers naturally fade into soft beige tones, and when dried, they are perfectly suited as a delicate addition to small dry arrangements. In flowerbeds, it represents an ideal companion for spring bulbs, with which it forms very harmonious compositions. Cultivation can easily be managed even by a beginner, as the plant does not suffer from any diseases or pests and can withstand frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees without damage. Simply transplant the supplied mature seedling to a sunny or partially shaded location, ideally maintaining a planting distance of around forty centimeters.

Sesleria autumnalis
Autumn Moor Grass
Autumn moor grass is an exceptionally hardy ornamental grass that introduces fresh greenery to the garden right from early spring. Native to the rocky slopes of the Balkans, it is well-adapted to free-draining soils, making it an ideal choice for novice gardeners. It forms neat clumps growing thirty to fifty centimeters tall. Its greatest asset is its bright green foliage, which emerges early and remains in pristine condition in the borders well into winter. The plant is untouched by diseases or pests and handles severe frosts superbly. In August and September, delicate creamy-beige flowers appear above the foliage. These rather subtle spikelets give the plant an elegant, refined look. In the garden, it acts as a perfect filler perennial for sunny or partially shaded spots. It looks absolutely stunning paired with calamint, airy gaura, or flowering oregano. Its delicate flowers and leaves are easily used as foliage filler in fresh bouquets, or they can be dried for small-scale floristry projects.

Stipa tenuissima
Feather grass Pony Tails
Feather grass flowers capture attention in beds and bouquets with their lightness and delicacy. All feather grasses love full sun and dry, stony, well-drained soil. To look most natural in beds, it is good to plant them in loose groups of several pieces together with other drought-loving perennials and bulbs. Only then do their stems and inflorescences, set in motion by the slightest breath of wind, truly stand out. Stipa 'Ponny Tails' is a species native to the steppes of Mexico, Texas, and Patagonia. Airy, dense clumps of hair-like delicate leaves resemble horsehair. The leaves are green, turning up to straw-colored towards the flowers. In a suitable location, it also self-seeds.

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.

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.

Seslaria heufleriana
Sesleria sadleriana
Blue-green moor grass is an undemanding and reliable ornamental grass that brings structure and color to the spring garden at a time when most other plants are just waking up. It naturally grows on sunny to semi-shady rocky slopes and edges of light forests in southeastern Europe, where it has perfectly adapted to well-draining soils. Thanks to its origin, it is extremely hardy against frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees and does not suffer from any common diseases or pests. Even a complete beginner can grow it without any problems. The potted seedling simply needs to be transplanted to a chosen spot in the flowerbed, ideally into well-draining soil in full sun or light partial shade. The plant will soon form dense clumps and will captivate you especially with its unique two-toned leaves. Their upper side carries a cool blue-green shade, while the underside is elegantly grayish. As early as March, sturdy stems bearing unconventional dark purple-black spikes grow from these clumps, contrasting unexpectedly with pastel yellow and creamy stamens. The inflorescences persist until May and perfectly complement spring bulbs. The dark spring spikes with long stems also represent an interesting floristic element. They can be used in the first spring bouquets, where they stay fresh in a vase for about a week, or you can let them dry for use in long-lasting dried arrangements.

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.

Gaura lindheimeri
Gaura Whirling Butterflies
The charming Gaura 'Whirling Butterflies' is exactly the perennial that will give any flower bed a relaxed, natural look. It originally comes from the dry and hot plains of southern North America, which clearly suggests that it loves sunshine and well-drained sandy soil. You will receive from us a beautifully grown seedling in a pot, which you can simply transplant straight into the garden. Here, it will soon form a dense clump of green leaves, from which long, thin stems dotted with flowers emerge all summer until October.

It can handle even stronger frosts down to minus eighteen degrees. It looks excellent in mixed plantings next to drought-tolerant grasses or other undemanding species. Although it is a short-lived perennial, it willingly self-seeds, meaning it will stay with you in its location for a very long time. If you like creating fresh summer bouquets, Gaura will definitely not disappoint you. You just need to cut the stems the moment the first small flowers open. It is a completely undemanding species without serious diseases, which needs no support and will forgive even beginner mistakes.

Hyssopus officinalis
Hyssop Roseus
The Roseus hyssop is an aromatic subshrub whose structure and requirements strongly resemble the popular lavender. It originally comes from the sunny and dry regions of the Mediterranean and Asia Minor, so it thrives best in direct sun here as well. It favors well-drained, sandy, and even nutrient-poor soil, where it easily copes with a lack of moisture. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply transplant straight into the flower bed, where it will very soon form a neat, richly branched bush reaching a height of around fifty centimeters. It is an absolutely undemanding plant that is not bothered by diseases or pests, so its cultivation can be easily handled even by complete beginners. It comfortably withstands severe frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees Celsius.
In the garden, hyssop finds wide application. It fits perfectly into steppe-character gravel beds and beautifully complements roses or lower ornamental grasses. During the summer until early autumn, the Roseus variety will delight you with a flood of tiny flowers in a delicate light pink shade. These flowers, as well as the narrow green leaves, emit a pleasant spicy fragrance and reliably act as a huge lure for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. Since all parts of the plant are edible, you can also use hyssop in the kitchen as a herb to flavor dishes or prepare a medicinal tea from it.
You can also cut the long flowering stems for a vase, where they will add a fine texture and lightness to summer bouquets. Although the flowers are not suitable for drying for floral purposes, the plant will please you in the flower bed even out of season. The inflorescences form an interesting structure which, after the leaves fall and are covered by morning frost, creates a beautiful winter effect. Furthermore, if you provide hyssop with ideal conditions, it will reliably self-seed in its location and remain a solid part of your garden for many years.

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.

Cultivation
Umístění a nároky na pěstování
Tato elegantní tráva je ideální volbou pro začínající zahradníky, protože její nároky jsou minimální a úspěch při pěstování je téměř zaručen. Pěchava vápnomilná miluje slunce, ale na rozdíl od mnoha jiných trav skvěle prosperuje i v polostínu, kde krásně vynikne její dvojbarevný efekt listů. Základem úspěchu je správná půda, která musí být především propustná. Rostlině se daří v zemině, která je písčitá, hlinitá s příměsí kamení nebo štěrková. Důležité je, aby se v místě výsadby nedržela voda, protože přemokření je pro tuto suchomilnou rostlinu větším nepřítelem než mráz. Díky své skromnosti nevyžaduje téměř žádné hnojení; naopak, v příliš výživné půdě by mohla ztrácet svůj kompaktní tvar a poléhat. Dodanou sazenici stačí zasadit do úrovně terénu a ze začátku ji udržovat mírně vlhkou, dokud pořádně nezakoření.
Řez a celoroční údržba
Jednou z největších předností pěchavy je její zimní efekt a brzké jarní probouzení. Protože je v našich podmínkách často stálezelená nebo polo-stálezelená, na podzim se do ní vůbec nezasahuje. Suchá květenství a listy tvoří v zahradě krásnou strukturu i během zimních měsíců. Teprve v předjaří, obvykle v březnu, věnujte rostlině chvilku péče. Není nutné provádět radikální zpětný řez až u země jako u ozdobnic. Často postačí trs pouze „vyčesat“ prsty a odstranit tak suché a poškozené listy, aby uvolnily místo novým výhonkům. Pokud je trs po tuhé zimě nevzhledný, můžete jej sestřihnout na výšku asi pět až deset centimetrů. Kvetení nastupuje velmi brzy, už v dubnu, a odkvetlé klásky můžete na rostlině ponechat pro ozdobu, nebo je ostříhat a použít do suchých vazeb.
Pěstování v nádobách a květináčích
Pěchava je díky svému nízkému vzrůstu (20–30 cm) a kompaktnímu tvaru naprosto ideální rostlinou pro pěstování v nádobách na terasách či balkonech. Při sázení do květináče je absolutně nezbytné zajistit dokonalý odtok vody, aby kořeny nestály v bahně. Na dno nádoby nasypte dostatečnou vrstvu drenáže z kamínků nebo keramzitu. Substrát by měl být lehký a propustný, ideálně smíchaný s hrubším pískem v poměru jedna ku jedné. Zatímco ve volné půdě si pěchava po zakořenění vodu obvykle najde sama, v květináči je závislá na vás. Zalévejte ji pravidelně, ale vždy až poté, co vrchní vrstva substrátu proschne. I v nádobě je rostlina mrazuvzdorná, ale jelikož má kořeny méně chráněné než v záhonu, je vhodné nádobu na zimu postavit na chráněné místo k vnější zdi a případně ji obalit izolačním materiálem.

Autumn Moor Grass
Autumn moor grass is an exceptionally hardy ornamental grass that introduces fresh greenery to the garden right from early spring. Native to the rocky slopes of the Balkans, it is well-adapted to free-draining soils, making it an ideal choice for novice gardeners. It forms neat clumps growing thirty to fifty centimeters tall. Its greatest asset is its bright green foliage, which emerges early and remains in pristine condition in the borders well into winter. The plant is untouched by diseases or pests and handles severe frosts superbly. In August and September, delicate creamy-beige flowers appear above the foliage. These rather subtle spikelets give the plant an elegant, refined look. In the garden, it acts as a perfect filler perennial for sunny or partially shaded spots. It looks absolutely stunning paired with calamint, airy gaura, or flowering oregano. Its delicate flowers and leaves are easily used as foliage filler in fresh bouquets, or they can be dried for small-scale floristry projects.

Seslaria heufleriana
Sesleria sadleriana
Blue-green moor grass is an undemanding and reliable ornamental grass that brings structure and color to the spring garden at a time when most other plants are just waking up. It naturally grows on sunny to semi-shady rocky slopes and edges of light forests in southeastern Europe, where it has perfectly adapted to well-draining soils. Thanks to its origin, it is extremely hardy against frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees and does not suffer from any common diseases or pests. Even a complete beginner can grow it without any problems. The potted seedling simply needs to be transplanted to a chosen spot in the flowerbed, ideally into well-draining soil in full sun or light partial shade. The plant will soon form dense clumps and will captivate you especially with its unique two-toned leaves. Their upper side carries a cool blue-green shade, while the underside is elegantly grayish. As early as March, sturdy stems bearing unconventional dark purple-black spikes grow from these clumps, contrasting unexpectedly with pastel yellow and creamy stamens. The inflorescences persist until May and perfectly complement spring bulbs. The dark spring spikes with long stems also represent an interesting floristic element. They can be used in the first spring bouquets, where they stay fresh in a vase for about a week, or you can let them dry for use in long-lasting dried arrangements.

Sesleria argentea
Moor grass
Moor grass is an unjustly overlooked ornamental grass that can add structure to the garden right from early spring. It originates from sunny and semi-shady rocky hillsides, where it naturally grows in permeable soils. It excels with exceptional frost resistance down to minus thirty-four degrees and absolute undemandingness, making it an ideal choice even for complete beginners. Moreover, the plant completely avoids all diseases and pests. Its bright and light green leaves sprout very early and retain their attractive appearance unusually long into winter. It forms compact clumps at a height of thirty to fifty centimeters. During August and September, tiny beige and white flower spikes gently peek out of them. It works wonderfully in mixed perennial beds or as a groundcover plant when planted out in a thirty-centimeter grid. It looks beautiful in combination with calamint, gaura, or oregano, to which it provides a calm and soft grassy background. Both the inflorescences and stiff leaves are perfectly suited for floristic purposes, especially as an interesting complementary detail in autumn bouquets or for drying in long-lasting arrangements.
