Amsonia illustris

Amsonia illustris

Amsonia illustris is a fascinating long-lived perennial that will surprise you with several transformations throughout the year. Its original home is in the eastern regions of the United States, where it naturally grows in moister grassy habitats. Thanks to this, it is extremely adaptable and in our gardens it will appreciate humous and loamy soil, whether in full sun or partial shade. In a sunny spot, expect its delicate flowers to fade slightly faster. You will receive a well-rooted seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant directly to the selected spot in the flowerbed, ideally at a spacing of about fifty to sixty centimeters. It doesn't need support, easily withstands frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees, and common diseases and pests avoid it, so even complete beginners can handle growing it. At the turn of May and June, it forms tufts of fresh green leaves that resemble a willow. It grows up to eighty centimeters tall and is soon adorned with star-shaped flowers in sky and light blue shades. These flowers not only look beautiful, but reliably attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators from the wide surroundings. Gardeners love it for its variability. Early in the spring, it captivates with dark emerging shoots, and in the autumn its leaves turn beautiful mustard yellow tones, bringing a warm autumn atmosphere to the garden. It fits perfectly into mixed perennial beds, where it will complement ornamental grasses well. Since the entire plant is poisonous, it is good to handle it carefully. If you like creating your own bouquets, you will also love amsonia for floral use, although it is not suitable for drying. Its blue flowers will add softness and elegance to any vase. When cut, however, the stems exude a white milky sap. To make it last as long as possible in a vase, it is necessary to sear the ends of the stems with a flame after cutting and only then immediately place them in water. Thanks to this little trick, you can enjoy the fresh flowers for up to ten days. Show full description

Calamint, Loukykvět

Calamintha nepeta ssp. nepeta

An undemanding and modest perennial that blooms with a large number of tiny flowers. It blooms for a record-breaking length of time throughout late summer and autumn. It forms smaller, compact, airy bushes that release a minty-spicy scent. The thyme-like flowers attract bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. It will look good among roses as well as in naturalistic steppe beds, perhaps with lower grasses. This calamint is generally more vigorous. It differs from other calamints with felted leaves by its record flowering length, stiff and shiny leaves, and also a larger number of flowers that do not form seeds and are therefore maximally durable. Sometimes sold under the cultivar name 'Triumphator'.

Autumn Moor Grass, Loukykvět

Sesleria autumnalis

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.

Bluebeard Hint of Gold, Loukykvět
New

Caryopteris clandonensis

Bluebeard Hint of Gold will brighten up the garden at a time when most perennials are already finishing their bloom. This deciduous subshrub is valued primarily for the unconventional coloring of its leaves, which sprout in bright yellow tones and gradually transition into a soft yellow-green. This creates a perfect and fresh contrast to the deep blue-purple flowers that appear on the plant from August to October. The whole plant is strongly aromatic and upon touch releases a pleasant spicy scent that reminds one of a mix of herbs, conifer needles, and resin. Thanks to its compact growth around 60 to 90 centimeters, it perfectly fits into lower shrub groups or as a specimen plant in perennial beds, where it is guaranteed to draw attention to itself. The original species of bluebeard come from the dry and sunny steppe regions of East Asia, which predestines their requirements in our gardens as well. They require full sun and very well-draining, even stony or sandy soil, as they do not tolerate waterlogging, especially in the winter months. Hint of Gold is frost-resistant, yet it is advisable to cover its roots slightly with conifer branches for the winter. In the spring, a deeper cutback is needed, which will promote the bush's density and an abundant set of flowers on new shoots. The flowers are literally a magnet for bees, bumblebees, and other pollinators, representing a valuable source of nectar in late summer. The twigs can also be used for cutting into a vase, where they will spice up any autumn bouquet with their scent and the unconventional color combination of leaf and flower.

Hyssop Roseus, Loukykvět

Hyssopus officinalis

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.

Throughout late summer and into autumn, it blooms with a record number of tiny blue flowers that are so typical of the Blue Cloud variety.

It will look great among roses or in naturally designed steppe flowerbeds, where it naturally complements lower ornamental grasses. Additionally, both the blue flowers and green leaves are edible, so you can use them to garnish summer dishes.

Cultivation

Amsónie illustris k vám dorazí jako již krásně prokořeněná sazenice, kterou můžete rovnou vysadit na vybrané místo v zahradě. Pro úspěšné pěstování vyberte stanoviště na slunci nebo v mírném polostínu. Na plném slunci sice bohatě pokvete, ale počítejte s tím, že její nebesky modré květy mohou o něco rychleji blednout. Amsonie ocení záhon s dostatečně vlhkou půdou, patří mezi dlouhověké trvalky, které mají rády stabilní podmínky. Nejlépe se jí bude dařit v humózní a hlinité zemině. Sazenice vysazujte do sponu 50 až 60 centimetrů, což odpovídá zhruba čtyřem až šesti rostlinám na metr čtvereční. Tento velkorysý prostor je důležitý pro správnou cirkulaci vzduchu a celkový zdravý růst.

Po výsadbě je klíčová pravidelná zálivka. Nějaký čas jí trvá, než se v zahradě usadí a zesílí, pak je velmi odolná a snese i kratší období sucha. Během sezóny nepotřebuje žádnou složitou péči ani oporu, protože její stonky jsou přirozeně pevné a dorůstají do výšky 60 až 80 centimetrů. Zjara můžete rostlinu podpořit přidáním kvalitního kompostu k jejím kořenům, což jí dodá potřebné živiny pro bohatou násadu květů na přelomu května a června. S odstraňováním odkvetlých květů si nemusíte lámat hlavu, rostlina se sama nepřesévá a je krásná i po odkvětu.

Velkou výhodou této trvalky je její naprostá nenáročnost a mimořádná odolnost. Nemá potíže se škůdci ani nemocemi, takže se s klidným svědomím vyhnete jakýmkoliv postřikům. Navíc je extrémně mrazuvzdorná a bez problému zvládne teploty klesající až k minus osmadvaceti stupňům. Na podzim se její zelené listy zbarví do hořčicově žluté a na zimu přirozeně odumřou. Nadzemní část doporučujeme seříznout až v předjaří, těsně předtím, než začnou rašit nové výhony. Při jakékoliv manipulaci nebo řezu však buďte maximálně opatrní a používejte rukavice. Celá rostlina je jedovatá a při poranění roní bílé mléko.

Často se ptáte, zda je možné amsónii pěstovat také v nádobách nebo prostorných truhlících. Tato možnost tu určitě je, ale vyžaduje o něco více vaší pozornosti. Vyberte dostatečně velký a hluboký květináč s odtokovými otvory, aby kořeny nikdy nestály ve vodě. Použijte kvalitní substrát smíchaný s kompostem, který zajistí vhodné humózní a hlinité prostředí. V nádobě bude rostlina vyžadovat mnohem častější zálivku než ve volné půdě, protože substrát logicky rychleji vysychá. Před příchodem silných mrazů je dobré květináč obalit jutou nebo polystyrenem, abyste ochránili kořenový bal před úplným promrznutím.

Amsonia hubrichtii

Are you looking for a reliable and uncommon perennial that will enliven your garden with blue flowers and surprise you with vibrant colors in autumn? Amsonia hubrichtii is exactly that choice. It originates from the eastern regions of North America, where it naturally grows on sunny and slightly moist grassy plains. You will purchase a mature seedling in a pot directly from us, so you can immediately transplant it into the garden upon delivery. The ideal spacing between individual plants is about forty centimeters. Caring for it is extremely easy, so even beginners can handle planting it without any worries. It does not suffer from pests or diseases and reliably overwinters in our conditions as a long-lived perennial, because it handles frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees without problems. It will thrive particularly in humous and loamy soil in direct sunlight with good watering. The hubrichtii species is completely exceptional among perennials for its fine texture. It has very narrow, almost needle-like green leaves, thanks to which the plant, growing to fifty to seventy centimeters, looks incredibly airy. In June and July, it produces a flood of tiny flowers in a heavenly light blue tone. But the real show comes in autumn, when the entire plant turns into an unmissable mustard-yellow color. In the flowerbed, it thus creates a beautiful contrast to late-blooming species. It will also find its place in summer vases. Given that the stems exude a milky sap after cutting, you just need to briefly sear the cut over a flame, immediately place it in water, and it will stay fresh for approximately ten days.
