Sedge Kyoto
Kyoto sedge is an incredibly useful perennial that will enliven even the shadiest corners of your garden. In the wild, sedges grow in light forests, which is why they appreciate partial shade or shade in your home garden as well. For good growth, they need permeable loamy soil and moderate watering. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot, which you just need to transplant to the chosen spot. Any beginner can handle it; the plant does not suffer from diseases or pests. It easily withstands frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees. The 'Kyoto' cultivar forms dense clumps of lush green leaves, forty to sixty centimeters tall. Green flowers appear during April and May. It works as a great groundcover plant under taller shrubs and complements hostas or ferns. When planting in groups, space them at eight plants per square meter.

Deschampsia cespitosa
Tufted hairgrass Palava
Tufted hairgrass is an undemanding native grass that remains green even in winter. In nature, it grows in meadows and forest clearings.

It adapts even to more difficult conditions, such as dry shade or compacted soil, and can handle waterlogging too. The Czech cultivar 'Pálava' is valuable for its extra-long flowering time from July to October. Unlike other cultivars, its flowers are sterile and do not create any seedlings.

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.

Calamintha nepeta ssp. nepeta
Calamint
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'.

Helleborus orientalis
Hellebore Double Ellen White
Hellebores are evergreen perennials that form slowly spreading clumps of leathery, dark green leaves. The stems usually bear four to five flowers. They bloom very early, as early as late winter and early spring. They are usable for vases only after conspicuous seed pods form in the center of the flower and the flower matures. Earlier, they tend to wilt and the stems cannot hold the flower in an upright position. All parts of the plant are poisonous. Double Ellen White is an almost pure white, double-flowered hellebore. The petals are slightly wavy and the bottom row of petals is lightly tinged with green.

Chasmanthium latifolium
Northern Sea Oats
Chasmanthium is one of the most charming ornamental grasses, bringing movement and a gentle rustling sound to the garden. It originates from the eastern part of North America, where it naturally grows in light, damp forests or on the banks of streams, so it is best suited to partial shade and humous, non-drying soil. Its greatest adornments are the flat spikelets resembling small fish, which hang from arched, drooping stems and change color throughout the season from fresh green through beige to warm copper tones, while the leaves turn golden-yellow in autumn. Chasmanthium is an excellent choice for cutting into fresh bouquets, where it adds airiness, and it looks even better dried, retaining its shape and color for a long time. Furthermore, it is a fully frost-hardy perennial that easily handles winters and will please any grower with its low-maintenance nature.

Coreopsis verticillata
Coreopsis Moonbeam
If you are looking for a delicate and long-blooming plant for full sun, whorled tickseed is a great choice. The basic species originates from North America, and here it thrives best in a sunny spot and well-drained, rather drier loamy soil. Although it is a short-lived perennial, with the right care and a well-chosen location, it can bring joy for several years. A distinctive feature of this species is its rich foliage of very tiny leaves, which form low, about forty-centimeter-tall bushes. After transplanting from the pot, the mature seedling is perfectly suited for the edges of flower beds or mixed drought-tolerant compositions, where it beautifully softens the overall look. In addition, the plant is fully frost-hardy, requires no special care, and is free from diseases. The 'Moonbeam' variety stands out with countless smaller, creamy-yellow flowers. These appear in mid-summer and continue to decorate the garden until early autumn, providing rich pasture for pollinators. You can easily cut the delicate stems with flowers to bring home. They will add an informal meadow touch to bouquets and will maintain their freshness in a vase for about seven days.

Brunnera sibirica
Siberian Bugloss
Siberian bugloss is a hardy perennial that is unfazed even by the shady corners of the garden where other plants fail to thrive. It earned its name thanks to its tiny blue flowers, which are very similar to classic forget-me-nots and bloom in April and May. Unlike its more famous relative, the largeleaf bugloss, this species spreads a bit more vigorously and forms dense stands. Thanks to its underground rhizomes, it works as a great groundcover plant that reliably suppresses weeds under trees or shrubs. Once the plant finishes blooming, all its energy moves into the large, deep green heart-shaped leaves, which quickly grow to their final size. It is an ideal choice for beginners because it handles heavier clay soils excellently and tolerates short-term drought. Furthermore, the flowers are suitable for cutting into spring tied bouquets, where they look very tender and add lightness to the arrangement.

Cultivation
Kyoto sedge is a typical woodland plant that will brighten up empty and shady spots in your garden. It thrives best in partial shade or a cool, shaded area, for example as an underplanting beneath taller shrubs or trees. It requires well-drained, loamy soil where water does not stand. Since we deliver a fully grown plant in a pot, planting is very easy. Carefully remove the plant and place it in the prepared hole. When planting in groups, maintain a spacing of about thirty-five centimeters, which works out to eight plants per square meter.
This long-lived perennial requires moderate watering and is very easy to care for.
A great advantage for beginners is that the sedge does not suffer from diseases, and pests avoid it.
With the arrival of winter, you do not need to worry about the plant. The sedge is highly frost-hardy and easily withstands temperatures down to minus twenty-three degrees Celsius. Furthermore, it offers a beautiful winter effect, so your garden will remain attractive even during the cold months. There is no need to tie up or otherwise protect the plant for winter. The main maintenance will wait until early spring, before the new leaves sprout. At that time, simply use your hands to gently comb out the dead or dry leaves from the clump.
Customers very often ask about the possibility of growing sedge in containers or window boxes. The good news is that this cultivar is absolutely ideal for growing in pots. Choose a sufficiently spacious container with drainage holes to prevent water from rotting the roots, and use a well-drained substrate. Keep in mind that soil in a pot dries out much faster than in a flowerbed, so check the moisture regularly and ensure moderate watering. Before winter, it is crucial to wrap the pot in bubble wrap, polystyrene, or jute. This will protect the root ball from freezing, which is a much higher risk in containers than in open 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.

Are you looking for reliable greenery for problematic shady places where other flowers do not thrive? Carex disperma will surprise you with its hardiness and natural appearance. Its native home is humid groves and forest wetlands. In the garden, it therefore most appreciates shade or partial shade and a large dose of moisture in loamy and clayey soil.
It forms lower, approximately thirty-centimeter-tall clumps of lush leaves, which perfectly fill empty spaces under trees or along shady paths at a spacing of thirty to forty centimeters. In early summer, inconspicuous yellowish and greenish flowers appear. You won't create floral arrangements from them as this sedge is not suitable for cutting, but it provides a wonderful visual base for other perennials in the flower bed. In the winter months, it also retains an interesting structure, providing the much-desired winter effect.
It is completely free of diseases and pests and self-seeds naturally in the location. This creates a lush green carpet that will transform your garden into a piece of a quiet forest.
