Aruncus aethusifolius
Goat's beard Porzellan
Aruncus aethusifolius 'Porzellan' represents a perfect solution for livening up darker places where other plants might not thrive. It is a very undemanding and long-lived perennial that does not suffer from diseases or pests, and even a complete beginner can manage its care. It features a low growth of around 35 centimeters and dense foliage, thanks to which it works wonderfully as groundcover greenery in smaller groups. White airy flowers appear in early summer and bring a delicate texture to the flower beds, similar to astilbes. The plant loves partial shade and plenty of moisture, so it will thrive near water features or in shady rockeries. The seedling is fully frost-hardy, and you can boldly use its flowers in a vase, where they stay fresh and add lightness to the arrangement.

Catananche caerulea
Cupid's Dart Alba
Silvery bracts and pure white flowers make Cupid's dart 'Alba' an unmissable beauty for drought-tolerant beds. Although its botanical name carries the epithet 'blue', this cultivar will delight you with its radiant whiteness, which stands out beautifully above clumps of grayish-green leaves. It is a plant native to the Mediterranean, so for happy growth, it requires plenty of sun and, most importantly, well-drained, sandy soil. In our conditions, it behaves as a short-lived perennial, but in a suitable spot, it gladly self-seeds and renews itself. A great advantage of Cupid's dart is its versatility for florists. Its strong stems make it predestined for cutting into summer bouquets, lasting about a week, and thanks to the interesting texture of its flowers and buds, it is also excellent for dried arrangements and winter decorations.

Helleborus orientalis
Hellebore Double Ellen Picotee
Hellebores are evergreen perennials that form slowly spreading clumps of leathery, dark green leaves. The stems usually carry four to five flowers. They bloom very early, as early as late winter and early spring. They can be used in a vase only after conspicuous seed pods form in the center of the flower and the flower matures. Picked earlier, they tend to wilt and the stems cannot hold the flower upright. All parts of the plant are poisonous. The semi-double flowers of the Double Ellen Picotee hellebore take on white and light pink hues with a purplish-burgundy edging.

Cephalaria gigantea
Giant scabious
Giant scabious is an imposing solitary perennial that will bring a striking vertical structure and natural wild charm to the garden. It comes from the mountain meadows of the Caucasus, which dictates its growing requirements. From the delivered seedling, a highly noticeable plant with a massive, sparsely branched growth will quickly grow in full sun or partial shade and humus-rich loamy soil. Given its dimensions, we recommend planting one piece per square meter. It commonly reaches a height of up to two and a half meters, yet it needs no support at all. From June to August, it forms scabiosa-like flowers in pastel yellow to lime colors on long stems. This creates a very effective contrast between the relatively massive bulk of green leaves and the airy, wiry stems with small flower heads. It resists frosts down to minus thirty-four degrees without any problems, does not suffer from diseases or pests, and easily self-seeds. It is a highly attractive lure for bees and other pollinators. The unusual flowers are perfectly suited for cutting; they last about five days in a vase. The faded inflorescences are also interesting, useful for drying and floristry purposes. If you leave them in the flower bed, they will provide a beautiful winter effect.

Rudbeckia subtomentosa
Rudbeckia Henry Eilers
Rudbeckia Henry Eilers is an extraordinary perennial that will bring the magic of late summer and the wild North American prairies into the garden. As a native species, it grows wild on sunny plains, so even here it thrives best in full sun in loamy, clayey, and well-drained soil. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply transplant straight into the flower bed. It is a very reliable and long-lived plant that does not suffer from diseases or pests and easily handles harsh frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees. Even complete beginners can playfully manage caring for it. The Henry Eilers cultivar, named after its discoverer, catches the eye at first glance. Bright yellow petals, which are unconventionally rolled into narrow tubes, grow out of prominent brown centers. The flowers on sturdy stems grow over one meter tall and do not need any support. In the garden, this rudbeckia is perfectly suited for prairie plantings alongside ornamental grasses or in country gardens, where its flowers attract bees and butterflies. Florists love using it for cutting. We cut the stems for a vase as soon as the flowers open, and they will bring you joy for seven to ten days. The faded dark cones look great in dry arrangements, and if you leave them in the flower bed, they will create a beautiful spectacle during the winter, especially when covered in frost.

It has its uses in traditional Chinese medicine. Due to its long vase life, it is excellent for cutting. It is also attractive to butterflies and bees and remains interesting even after flowering.

Aruncus aethusifolius
Goat's beard Bronze
Goatsbeard 'Bronze' is a small gem for shady corners that you will fall in love with for its changeable coloring and fine texture. This tiny perennial originally comes from Korean mountain slopes and rocky stream banks, where it naturally seeks out moister and cooler places. Unlike its massive relative, the standard goatsbeard, it grows to very compact dimensions, resembling more of a finely cut fern or a miniature astilbe. In the garden, it is perfectly suited as an underplanting beneath trees and shrubs, in rockeries located in partial shade, or as an elegant border for shady beds. Thanks to its low growth and dense habit, it works excellently as a groundcover plant that reliably suppresses weeds and keeps the soil moist.
The 'Bronze' cultivar truly lives up to its name, especially in spring and autumn, when its finely divided leaves turn into gorgeous bronze and reddish hues. In summer, the color changes to deep green, forming a perfect dark background for the creamy-white inflorescences. These fluffy panicles appear in June and July, bringing lightness and airiness to the planting with their structure. The flowers are also suitable for cutting into smaller vases, where they stay fresh for several days and add a gentle touch to arrangements. It is an exceptionally undemanding and frost-hardy perennial that does not suffer from diseases or pests, making it an ideal choice even for novice growers who want to liven up the shady parts of their garden.

Its original wild ancestors come from North America, where they grow in sunny and open spaces. This modern garden cultivar has retained the indomitable hardiness of its ancestors, but unlike them, it is not invasive and does not spread uncontrollably around the garden. It thrives excellently in full sun in well-drained loamy soil, and even complete beginners will easily manage its care. It does not suffer from any diseases or pests and handles even severe frosts without difficulty. It forms sturdy, upright stems up to one meter tall, which do perfectly well without any support. From August to October, it is covered with delicate pastel yellow flowers that are literally a magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. The customer will receive from us a grown seedling in a pot, which just needs to be transplanted straight into the flower bed. Goldenrod is specially bred for cutting and is highly sought after by florists. For harvesting into summer and autumn bouquets, you can use both fully blooming plants and stems with still-closed buds. They will stay fresh in your vase for approximately ten days. If you do not harvest it, it also serves beautifully for drying into winter decorations, or it creates a beautiful winter effect in the bed when its silhouette is covered by frost. Moreover, the pastel yellow shade of the 'Romantic Glory' variety combines exceptionally well with other colors, and interestingly, its flowers are even edible.

Baby's breath Bristol Fairy
Baby's breath 'Bristol Fairy' is an absolute classic that you might know from many bouquets under the folk name bridal veil. Originally a plant from the sandy steppes and slopes of southern Europe and central Asia, it is accustomed to full sun and well-drained, even poorer soil.

In the garden, it creates a fluffy white cloud that perfectly complements other drought-tolerant perennials or ornamental grasses in modern steppe plantings.
For florists, baby's breath is an indispensable material. The 'Bristol Fairy' cultivar stands out with a large number of fully double, pure white flowers that add lightness to any arrangement. The stems are sturdy and stay fresh for a long time in a vase. If you don't use them all fresh, you can easily dry them. Just hang them upside down in a dark and ventilated place.

Large-flowered catmint comes from the Caucasus and Eastern Europe, where it naturally grows in open meadows and pastures. It is a vigorously and uprightly growing clumping perennial that will bring a pleasant aromatic scent to the garden. It thrives best in full sun or light partial shade, in well-drained loamy-sandy soil.

In the garden, it grows to a height of about one meter and reliably attracts bees and other pollinators. It is excellently suited for flowerbeds as a traditional companion to roses, but it also fits beautifully into wilder meadow compositions with ornamental grasses. It blooms profusely from June to September. After the first wave of blooming, we recommend cutting the plant back, which will encourage further growth and the catmint will bloom once more. Furthermore, its flowers are edible and you can successfully cut them for summer bouquets.

Baptisia Decadence
False indigo Pink Truffles
Baptisia originates from North America, belongs to the legume family, and resembles the lupine in appearance. Unlike it, however, it does not suffer from fungal diseases and does not taste as good to slugs. Besides the blue flowers, the large pods are interesting, decorating the plant long after flowering. North American Indians used Baptisia roots to disinfect wounds and lower fever, and leaves to dye fabrics. Patience is most important with Baptisia; it takes some time to fully establish and create a massive root system adapted for surviving long periods of drought and fires. Then it is very long-lived.

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.

It is a stable, upright-growing perennial that reaches a height of eighty to one hundred centimeters in full vigor. During the summer and early autumn, roughly from July to the end of September, it produces dense spike-like inflorescences. These act as a reliable magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies, so your garden will gain a lot of useful life thanks to it. Agastache is a very hardy and robust plant that successfully handles our winters, as it tolerates frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees. At the same time, it is completely undemanding, naturally does not suffer from diseases or pests, and therefore its cultivation is easily managed even by complete beginners. It looks excellent in perennial beds when planted in larger groups, maintaining a spacing of about half a meter.
For lovers of fresh flowers, Agastache is an incredibly rewarding choice for cutting into a vase. The freshly cut stems will last beautifully in your home for about seven days and bring a light spicy scent with them.

Artemisia lactiflora
Artemisia
Artemisia lactiflora is an impressive perennial that brings unusual structure and height to summer and autumn flowerbeds. Unlike common drought-tolerant wormwoods, which boast exclusive silvery foliage, this species features deep green leaves and higher moisture requirements. It naturally grows in moister habitats, so in our country, it will prefer humous soil that does not dry out completely. It is a long-lived and undemanding plant that, in a suitable location, grows into larger clumps every year without spreading aggressively throughout the garden.
The main show begins in July and continues until September, when delicate ivory-colored inflorescences appear among the dark green feathery foliage. The flowers smell wonderful and are a magnet for bees and butterflies. For florists, this wormwood is a valuable material because it lasts seven days in a vase and adds lightness and volume to bouquets with its flowers. It perfectly complements late perennials and dahlias, and adds a wild, natural look to tied bouquets.

Cultivation
Garden placement and soil requirements
For this compact perennial, look for cooler and moister corners in your garden. It will thrive best when planted under trees, shrubs, or in shaded rock gardens. It requires a shaded or semi-shaded location; in direct sun, it would suffer from drought and scorching. The soil should be loose, humus-rich, and loamy, with good water-retention capacity. If your garden soil is poor, work in organic matter, such as compost, before planting the seedling. Thanks to its low stature (20–40 cm) and dense growth habit, it works perfectly as a ground cover plant, effectively covering bare spots and adding a fern-like structure to the flower bed with striking bronze foliage in spring and autumn.
Planting and year-round care
Plant the seedlings so that the crown of the plant is neither buried too deep nor sticking out above the surface. The ideal planting density is 9–12 plants per m², which corresponds to spacing of about 35 cm. A crucial factor for the prosperity of the Astilbe (Goatsbeard) is moisture. The soil should always be slightly damp, but not waterlogged. During periods of drought or when grown in drier areas, regular watering is necessary. As for maintenance, this is a long-lived perennial that won't burden you with pest or disease control, as it is naturally resistant to them. In spring, we recommend removing old dead leaves from the previous season to make room for new, fresh growth.
Container growing and overwintering
Thanks to its miniature size, Astilbe 'Bronze' is an excellent choice for growing in containers. If you choose this option, select a pot with a drainage hole and place a layer of gravel or expanded clay at the bottom so the roots do not sit in water. Use a quality substrate for perennials and place the pot in the shade. Remember that plants in pots are entirely dependent on your watering and nutrients, so fertilize regularly during the season. In terms of frost hardiness, the plant is extremely resilient (zone 4a, tolerates temperatures down to -34 °C) and will easily survive even harsh winters in the ground without cover. However, for plants in containers, it is advisable to wrap the pot in jute or polystyrene for the winter, as frost acts on the roots more intensely from all sides than it does in the ground.
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.

Goat's beard Bronze
Goatsbeard 'Bronze' is a small gem for shady corners that you will fall in love with for its changeable coloring and fine texture. This tiny perennial originally comes from Korean mountain slopes and rocky stream banks, where it naturally seeks out moister and cooler places. Unlike its massive relative, the standard goatsbeard, it grows to very compact dimensions, resembling more of a finely cut fern or a miniature astilbe. In the garden, it is perfectly suited as an underplanting beneath trees and shrubs, in rockeries located in partial shade, or as an elegant border for shady beds. Thanks to its low growth and dense habit, it works excellently as a groundcover plant that reliably suppresses weeds and keeps the soil moist.
The 'Bronze' cultivar truly lives up to its name, especially in spring and autumn, when its finely divided leaves turn into gorgeous bronze and reddish hues. In summer, the color changes to deep green, forming a perfect dark background for the creamy-white inflorescences. These fluffy panicles appear in June and July, bringing lightness and airiness to the planting with their structure. The flowers are also suitable for cutting into smaller vases, where they stay fresh for several days and add a gentle touch to arrangements. It is an exceptionally undemanding and frost-hardy perennial that does not suffer from diseases or pests, making it an ideal choice even for novice growers who want to liven up the shady parts of their garden.

Goat's beard Opulenz
Goatsbeard 'Opulenz' represents an ideal choice for livening up the shadier corners of the garden, where it will form a dense and compact mound. This tiny perennial, originally from Korea, is actually a miniature version of our native standard goatsbeard. It grows to a height of only 20 to 30 centimeters and stands out with its finely divided, fern-like leaves, which form a fresh green undergrowth. In May and June, airy panicles of tiny creamy-white flowers, resembling astilbes, rise above the leaves.
A great advantage of this undemanding plant is its all-season effect. After blooming, it decorates the flower bed with its interesting structure, and in autumn, its leaves turn beautiful shades of bronze to orange-red. It loves humous and moister soil in partial shade, so it fits perfectly on the edges of beds, in shady rockeries, or as an underplanting beneath shrubs and trees. It is fully frost-hardy and does not suffer from pests or diseases. The inflorescences can also be used in smaller bouquets, adding lightness and elegance.

Thanks to its low growth, it is perfectly suited for the edges of flower beds, shady rockeries, or even containers on north-facing terraces. In autumn, it will additionally surprise you when its leaves turn bronze to orange shades. The inflorescences can also be used in smaller bouquets, adding tenderness and lightness to them.

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.

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.

It is literally a magnetic plant for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies, who find a rich food source on it.

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.
