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.

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.

Calamintha nepeta
Calamint Blue Cloud
Lesser calamint Blue Cloud is an undemanding and modest perennial that reliably perfumes any sunny garden. Its original homeland is the sunny and dry slopes of Southern Europe, which is why it thrives best here in direct sun in well-drained, sandy, or poorer loamy soil. It handles winter without problems, tolerating frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant straight into the flowerbed, where it will very soon form a compact, airy small shrub reaching a height of up to forty centimeters. It does not suffer from any diseases or pests, so even complete beginners can easily handle caring for it. 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. The whole plant emits a pleasant minty-spicy scent, and its flowers, which resemble thyme, act as a literal magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. 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. Lesser calamint is also excellently suited for cutting into smaller fresh bouquets, adding a fine structure to them in a vase.

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.

Echinacea pallida
Coneflower Hula Dancer
The pale coneflower originally comes from the vast and sunny North American prairies, where it grows as a hardy and long-lived perennial. The Hula Dancer cultivar brings softness and elegance to gardens thanks to its pastel pink to white petals, which hang gracefully downwards and resemble dancing figures when blown by the wind. You will receive from us a grown seedling in a pot, which you just need to transplant into loamy or sandy well-drained soil in a sunny location. The coneflower is completely undemanding, easily handles severe frosts, and is avoided by most diseases and pests. During the summer, it blooms on sturdy stems about eighty centimeters high, and its fragrant, prickly centers reliably attract pollinators from far and wide. It fits perfectly into naturally styled and gravel flower beds, where it finds use alongside grasses and other sun-loving species. The flowers are also edible and are perfectly suited for summer bouquets. Harvest them fully open, and they will bring you joy in a vase for up to ten days. The flower cones without petals look very original in arrangements, and you can also easily dry them for winter decorations. In the flower bed, it pays to leave a few stems over the winter, because the snow-covered cones create a wonderful spectacle.

Quaking grass Limouzi
Quaking grass 'Limouzi' is an undemanding and very charming native grass that naturally grows in sunny meadows and pastures with poorer and well-drained soil. From May onwards, long thin stalks sprout from its dense green clumps, carrying delicate spikelets in the shape of small hearts swaying on them. They are colored in inconspicuous green and brown tones. It is their constant movement and rustling at the slightest breeze that gives the flower beds extraordinary dynamics and lightness. This short-lived perennial, growing to a height of around half a meter, is perfectly suited to complement colorful steppe plantings, where it creates a soft filler between more prominently flowering species. It will also find its use among beginner growers, as it does not suffer from diseases or pests and handles strong frosts without problems. The airy inflorescences of quaking grass are perfect for cutting into summer bouquets and for drying for various floristry purposes. After blooming, roughly at the end of summer, it is good to trim the clumps, which will encourage their fresh appearance. The 'Limouzi' cultivar is characterized by its abundant flower set and slightly more compact growth, which maintains its shape even in more demanding conditions.

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.

Knautia Melton Pastels
Knautia Melton Pastels is an abundantly and long-blooming, undemanding perennial with which you can easily conjure up a piece of wild nature right behind your house. The original species has its roots in the Balkans, where it grows wildly in sun-drenched thickets and on dry meadows. In flowerbeds, it immediately draws attention with its slender, tall stems.

It stands out best when you plant about five plants per square meter, with a spacing of half a meter from each other. Care for knautia is completely undemanding; it playfully survives even severe frosts and does not require complex fertilizing.

The stems are long and sturdy, so they look completely natural in vases and give bouquets a meadow touch. They also apply excellently in the creation of dried arrangements, bringing interesting structure to them.

Columbine Nora Barlow
The 'Nora Barlow' columbine variety is a historical gem, discovered in Cambridge in the 1980s by the granddaughter of the famous Charles Darwin. This unique plant is characterized by non-traditional flowers, whose coloration smoothly transitions from dusty pink through white to delicate greenish tones. Naturally, columbines occur in light forests, so they are best suited to a partially shaded location with well-draining loamy soil full of humus. They are versatile flowers suitable for rustic cottage gardens as well as natural compositions. Their charm lies not only in the flowers attracting bees but also in the early-sprouting green leaves. Beginners can handle their cultivation, the plants survive even extreme frosts, and they willingly self-seed in the garden. Just remember that columbine is poisonous, and it is good to occasionally check it for aphids, slugs, or powdery mildew. The stems blooming during May and June will add lightness to the flowerbeds. They are ideal for cutting, bring joy in a vase for about seven days, and serve beautifully for drying as well.

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.

Brunnera macrophylla
Brunnera macrophylla
The largeleaf brunnera comes from the moist mountain forests of the Caucasus, where it forms dense undergrowth. It is an ideal perennial for shady and semi-shady corners of your garden, where it will thrive in humus-rich, moist soil. It resembles classic forget-me-nots in appearance, but don't be fooled, its leaves are much larger, heart-shaped, and rough to the touch. Thanks to them, it acts as a great groundcover plant that sprouts early in the spring and reliably covers bare soil with its leaves until late autumn. It thus forms a natural contrasting background for the delicate, tiny flowers.
Tiny sky-blue flowers appear in April, May, and June, creating a beautiful delicate veil over the green carpet of leaves. The flower clusters are also suitable for cutting into spring hand-tied bouquets, where they look very tender. Just watch out for snails and slugs, who like to feast on the juicy leaves of the brunnera, so it's a good idea to check the plants regularly. It is a long-lived and hardy perennial that handles severe frosts without problems and will bring you joy in one place for many years.

Cultivation
Při výběru stanoviště pro pěchavu dlouhostébelnou myslete na její původ ze slunných skalnatých strání. Této okrasné trávě se bude nejlépe dařit na plném slunci nebo v mírném polostínu, kde se její dvoubarevné listy krásně vybarví. Zásadním faktorem pro úspěch je kvalita půdy, která musí být především výborně propustná. Rostlina nesnáší trvalé zamokření, zejména v zimním období, kdy by kořeny mohly uhnívat. Ideální je zemina hlinitá s příměsí písku, štěrkovitá nebo kamenitá. Pokud máte na zahradě těžkou jílovitou půdu, doporučujeme při výsadbě na dno jamky nasypat vrstvu drenáže ze štěrku a zeminu vylehčit pískem, aby voda mohla volně odtékat.
Protože pěchava vytváří pěkné husté trsy, doporučujeme dodržovat spon přibližně 40 cm, což vychází na 6 až 9 rostlin na metr čtvereční. Jakmile se pěchava na stanovišti usadí, stává se velmi odolnou vůči suchu a vyžaduje jen minimální přísun vody, což z ní dělá ideální volbu pro zahrádkáře, kteří nemohou zalévat každý den.
Péče během roku je u této trvalky minimální, jelikož netrpí na žádné choroby ani škůdce. Protože jde o stálezelenou nebo polo-stálezelenou trávu, nestříhejte ji na podzim, ale nechte trs přes zimu tak, jak je. Teprve velmi brzy na jaře, ideálně už koncem února nebo začátkem března, ještě před rašením nových stébel, odstraňte suché a poškozené listy nebo proveďte zpětný řez. Tím podpoříte růst nových, zdravých listů a brzké kvetení. Hnojení není nutné, rostlina si vystačí s živinami v běžné zahradní zemině; přehnojené rostliny mohou být méně pevné a náchylnější k poléhání.
Pěchavu dlouhostébelnou můžete s úspěchem pěstovat i v nádobách či truhlících na balkonech a terasách. Při pěstování v květináči je naprosto klíčová drenážní vrstva a otvor pro odtok vody na dně nádoby, aby nedocházelo k přemokření. Použijte substrát pro okrasné trávy nebo běžný zahradnický substrát smíchaný s pískem či perlitem. Mějte na paměti, že rostliny v nádobách jsou náchylnější na promrznutí kořenového balu než ty ve volné půdě. Ačkoli je pěchava plně mrazuvzdorná až do téměř -29 °C, v nádobě je vhodné ji v případě silných holomrazů obalit netkanou textilií nebo bublinkovou fólií, nebo nádobu umístit na chráněné místo u zdi domu.
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.

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.

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 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.

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.

This short-lived perennial, growing to a height of around half a meter, is perfectly suited to complement colorful steppe plantings, where it creates a soft filler between more prominently flowering species. It will also find its use among beginner growers, as it does not suffer from diseases or pests and handles strong frosts without problems.

After blooming, roughly at the end of summer, it is good to trim the clumps, which will encourage their fresh appearance.
