Allium ledebourianum
Allium Mercurius
Ozdobný česnek Mercurius přináší do zahrady lehkost a jemnou strukturu, která na sebe okamžitě strhne pozornost. Během června a července vytváří na pevných stoncích vysokých šedesát až osmdesát centimetrů nádherná kulovitá květenství ve světlých fialových a lila tónech. Tato voňavá trvalka vyžaduje plné slunce a propustnou půdu, jinak je ale zcela nenáročná a péči o ni hravě zvládnou i úplní začátečníci. Vyhýbají se jí běžné choroby i škůdci a bez potíží přestojí kruté zimy s teplotami hluboko pod bodem mrazu. Z naší nabídky dostanete přímo nadstandardně velkou cibuli, kterou už jen stačí usadit do země na vybraném stanovišti. Protože přes léto rostlina zatahuje do země, doporučujeme ji kombinovat s nižšími trávami nebo listnatými trvalkami, které záhon udrží krásně zelený i po jejím odkvětu. Všechny části rostliny jsou navíc jedlé a můžete s nimi tvořit i v kuchyni. Květy jsou magnetem pro opylovače a vnáší do zahrady život, ale stejně tak jim to sluší v řezaných letních kyticích. Květenství perfektně drží svůj kulatý tvar i po usušení, takže je využijete i do trvanlivých suchých vazeb.

German Garlic
Mountain garlic (or German garlic) is an undemanding yet very valuable allium for flower beds. Its leaves remain beautifully green throughout the season until well into winter. It sprouts early in spring, filling empty spaces in the beds with its foliage. This is followed in July and August by light purple flowers. It is suitable for rock gardens and container growing. And although its stems are not very long, it is also excellent for cutting.

Allium stipitatum Mont Blanc
A large-flowered, white-blooming ornamental allium with a flower head diameter of about 12 centimeters. It blooms slightly later than similar purple-flowering species. It has sturdy stems, yet a location protected from the wind is better for it. Its leaves are fresh green in spring but begin to yellow during flowering. Therefore, we plant it in mixed beds with lush perennials.

Sicilian Honey Garlic
Sicilian honey garlic forms a basal rosette of broad, matte green leaves. Its true ornament, however, are the slender stems, over a meter tall, topped with a fountain of drooping bell-shaped flowers. They retain their ornamental value even after flowering; the dry flowers with interesting seed pods are useful in dried bouquets. Its origin ensures good tolerance of dry summer periods. The flower color is variable; you will discover carmine red, caramel, and yellowish tones.

Allium amethystinum
Allium Red Mohican
Kultivar Allium amethystinum známý jako Red Mohican přináší do záhonů neokoukané vínové barvy a hravé tvary. Tvoří vysoké a pevné stonky, na kterých začátkem léta rozkvétají tmavě červená květenství s jemnou vůní. Od nás obdržíte kvalitní cibuli připravenou k usazení do půdy, nečeká vás tak žádné zdlouhavé pěstování ze semínek. Rostlina dorůstá zhruba do jednoho metru a díky své pevné stavbě bez potíží stojí i bez opory. Skvěle zapadne do smíšených venkovských výsadeb, kde funguje jako výrazný svislý prvek. Zelené listy s příchodem léta přirozeně zatahují, proto je dobré česnek kombinovat s rostlinami, které prázdné místo rychle vyplní. Voňavé květy jsou velkým lákadlem pro včely i čmeláky a jako příjemný bonus jsou plně jedlé. Jde o mimořádně odolnou rostlinu, která hravě zvládne i drsnější mrazy. Vínové hlávky vypadají nádherně ve váze a dají se s úspěchem sušit pro tvorbu trvanlivých aranžmá. Neostříhané květy navíc zdobí zahradu svými siluetami dlouho do zimy.

Allium triquetrum
Three-cornered Leek
The three-cornered leek combines the qualities of a beautiful plant and a useful culinary herb. All parts are edible. You can use the green, flat, strap-like leaves as well as the triangular stems with flowers. The triangular cross-section of the stems, the leaf shape, and the characteristic green stripe on the white flower—and of course the garlic aroma—distinguish this allium from the white-flowering bluebell, with which it could potentially be confused, and which is not edible.

Allium giganteum
Allium giganteum
Allium giganteum, or *Allium giganteum* in Latin, is an unmissable perennial that acts as a perfect architectural element in the flower bed. You simply need to plant the bulb in the soil in autumn. In spring, grey-green aromatic leaves sprout from it, and during May and June, huge spherical inflorescences appear on firm stems one to one and a half meters tall. These globes glow in shades of purple, pink, and lilac and naturally draw everyone's gaze. In the garden, ornamental garlic perfectly complements mixed perennial flower beds. It looks great when peeking through ornamental grasses, which also mercifully cover its leaves. It is a great magnet for bees and butterflies. The flowers can also be used at home in spring bouquets, and a huge advantage is that they are even edible. After flowering, the central structures retain their shape, making them great to dry for winter decorations or to leave in the bed, where they create a wonderful sight when covered in snow.

It is like a butterfly with this tulip. At the beginning, in the bud stage, it is an ordinary piece. But once it opens fully, it is pure beauty. The outside of the flower is decorated with a 'needle' in green-cream color. Each petal is shaped like a butterfly wing, crumpled over each other, and upon opening reveals a cream center. A beauty among single tulips.
