Helianthemum hybrida
Rock rose The Bride
Rock rose The Bride is an ideal choice for sun-drenched and dry spots in your garden where other plants would struggle. This evergreen subshrub is characterized by its creeping growth and tiny, silvery-gray leaves that retain their attractiveness even in winter, providing a year-round effect. In nature, rock roses inhabit rocky slopes and dry meadows, which is why even in the garden they require well-drained, poorer, and rather sandy soil in full sun. They handle summer droughts without problems and are rewarding residents of rockeries, dry stone walls, or the edges of perennial beds, where they form dense carpets.
From May to July, the plant literally cloaks itself in a flood of pure white flowers with a yellow center, attracting numerous bees and other pollinators. The Bride cultivar stands out precisely for the elegant contrast of snow-white flowers and silvery foliage. Although the flowers are not suitable for cutting into a vase, they put on a great show in their habitat and brighten up every corner. To maintain its compact, cushion-like shape and abundant flowering in subsequent years, we recommend trimming the plant after it finishes blooming, which will boost its vitality.

Helianthemum hybrida
Sunrose Bronzeteppich
Rock rose Bronzeteppich is the unassuming hero of rockeries and dry walls, which literally lights up in full sun. The original botanical species of these subshrubs can be found on sunny and rocky hillsides, where they can cope even with very poor and well-drained soil. Exactly thanks to this origin, the rock rose is exceptionally resistant to drought and loves the sun's rays, which awaken a flood of its tiny flowers. In the garden, it functions as a great ground cover element that decorates flower beds with its evergreen leaves even in the winter months when most perennials rest underground.
The Bronzeteppich variety, as the name suggests, creates dense carpets dotted with numerous flowers in a warm shade of terracotta and orange. It blooms gradually from May to July, becoming an irresistible attraction for bees and other pollinators, who find a rich source of food in its flowers. It grows only to a height of about twenty centimeters, so it is perfectly suited for the edges of flower beds or rockeries, where it fills the empty spaces between stones. Although it is not suitable for cutting into a vase or drying, its value in a living garden is irreplaceable. Care for it is minimal; just provide it with well-drained sandy soil and plenty of sun, and it will take care of the rest itself.

Helianthemum hybrida
Rock rose Sulphureum Plenum
Rock rose Sulphureum Plenum is literally a sun lover that will brighten up any rockery or dry wall. The original species of these low subshrubs are found on sunny and rocky hillsides, which is why even in the garden they require well-drained, poorer, and rather sandy soil where water does not sit. From May to July, the plant is covered with a flood of tiny double flowers in a pastel yellow shade, resembling miniature roses in shape. Thanks to its low and creeping growth, it is perfectly suited for edging flower beds or filling joints between stones. A great advantage is the winter effect, where the plant retains its fresh green foliage, so the flower bed does not remain empty even under the snow. To help this rock rose maintain its compact and dense shape, we recommend trimming it after flowering. It is fully frost-hardy and attracts a large number of pollinators.

The roughly twenty-centimeter subshrub blooms tirelessly from May to July, bringing with it the atmosphere of sun-drenched meadows.

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.

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.

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.

It might surprise you that the leaves of this stonecrop are edible and can be used to garnish dishes. If you decide not to cut the plant back in the autumn, you will get a perfect structure in the flowerbed that will last all winter. Especially when the old flowers are covered in frost, they provide a breathtaking spectacle right until the spring months.

Aquilegia vulgaris
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.

Clematis heracleifolia
Clematis Mrs R. Brydon
Clematis 'Mrs R. Brydon' is an unusual and very resilient perennial that brings softness and color to the garden just as summer transitions into autumn. The original species comes from the shrubby and forest edges of East Asia, which is why a location in the sun or partial shade suits it well here too. It will thrive in loamy and humus-rich soil with regular watering. An interesting feature of this clematis is its variable growth. If you provide it with support in the form of a fence or trellis, it will willingly climb up to a height of two and a half meters. However, if you leave it to grow freely without support, it grows like a carpet and forms a dense shrub. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you can simply transplant straight into the garden. Care is easy, it doesn't suffer from diseases or pests, and even beginners can easily manage it. During August and September, it gets covered in an abundance of flowers in a gorgeous lavender-blue shade, which react to the ambient temperature and can interestingly fade or darken.

The flowers are incredibly full and individual petals are ruffled, which further reinforces the impression of fullness. They do not form seeds and should therefore be all the more vital.

Papaver orientale
Oriental Poppy Royal Wedding
Oriental poppy Royal Wedding is an unmissable perennial that brings true elegance to the spring garden. It originally comes from the harsher conditions of the Caucasus, Turkey, and Iran, where it grows on sunny rocky slopes and dry meadows. Because of this, it is exceptionally resilient, easily handling frosts down to minus forty degrees, and can do without complex care. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant to a sunny location with well-drained loamy soil. The cultivar Royal Wedding will reward you in May and June with huge bowl-shaped flowers with pure white petals, which hide a distinct dark burgundy spot in their center. Moreover, these enchanting flowers reliably attract pollinators from far and wide. It is typical for Oriental poppies that their strikingly fuzzy green leaves die back soon after flowering. The plant takes a break over the warmest summer to gather strength, and a smaller portion of the leaves often sprouts again only at the end of summer. Therefore, it is ideal to plant the poppy in the flower bed in close proximity to other perennials that sprout slightly later and naturally fill the empty space left by the resting poppy. It avoids diseases and needs no support, reaching a height of around sixty to eighty centimeters. Just watch out for field voles, which might develop a taste for its fleshy roots. Otherwise, it is a long-lived plant that even a complete beginner can handle without worries. Given that the plant is poisonous, it is naturally not intended for consumption. The giant white flowers are also a great attraction for lovers of cut flowers, although they require a little trick. Similar to other poppies, the stems need to be harvested exactly at the moment when the buds begin to color and slightly crack. Right after cutting, we sear the ends of the stems with a flame for about twenty seconds to prevent sap leakage, and then we put them into cold water. Thanks to this procedure, they will stay beautiful for about four days in a vase and add amazing lightness to bouquets. Although these delicate flowers are not suitable for drying, they simply have no competition in fresh spring bouquets.

Cultivation
For the successful cultivation of The Bride rock rose, choosing the right spot is absolutely crucial. This plant loves the sun and warmth, so choose a place for it with all-day sunshine, ideally facing south. Shade or partial shade would cause the plant to stretch for light and bloom poorly. The soil must be excellently drained, rather poorer, and sandy to stony. Rock rose does not tolerate waterlogging, which often leads to root rot in winter, so avoid heavy clay soils. If you have heavier soil in the garden, it is necessary to pour a drainage layer of gravel at the bottom of the hole when planting and mix the soil itself with sand. Plant the plants at a spacing of roughly 30 to 40 cm apart (approximately 9–12 plants per m²), so they have enough space for their prostrate growth and at the same time eventually form a closed stand.
Care during the season is minimal for this cultivar, making it an ideal plant for beginning gardeners. After planting, the seedling must be watered regularly until it roots well, but older plants are fully drought-resistant and only require watering during periods of extreme summer heat. Fertilizing is not necessary; on the contrary, an excess of nutrients (especially nitrogen) would encourage lush leaf growth at the expense of flowers and reduce frost hardiness. A fundamental operation for maintaining the rock rose's beauty is cutting back after flowering. Once the plant finishes blooming in July, cut it back by approximately a third to a half of its height. This pruning will encourage the production of new shoots, maintain a compact cushion shape, and ensure dense foliage that will decorate the garden even in winter. Without pruning, the small shrubs tend to become bare on the inside and woody.
'The Bride' rock rose is frost-hardy down to -23 °C and usually overwinters in the garden without problems. Since it is an evergreen semi-shrub, it can be harmed in winter more by a combination of harsh winter sun and frozen soil, when the plant cannot take up water (so-called physiological drought). In snowless winters, we therefore recommend preventively covering the plant with evergreen branches, which will protect it from drying out and sun scorch. A great advantage of this cultivar is its excellent health; it does not suffer from diseases or pests. The plant can also be very successfully grown in containers or window boxes, provided you ensure high-quality water drainage. The container must have drainage holes and a layer of expanded clay at the bottom. Mix the substrate for growing in a container with sand in a 1:1 ratio to simulate natural dry conditions.

Helianthemum hybrida
Sunrose Bronzeteppich
Rock rose Bronzeteppich is the unassuming hero of rockeries and dry walls, which literally lights up in full sun. The original botanical species of these subshrubs can be found on sunny and rocky hillsides, where they can cope even with very poor and well-drained soil. Exactly thanks to this origin, the rock rose is exceptionally resistant to drought and loves the sun's rays, which awaken a flood of its tiny flowers. In the garden, it functions as a great ground cover element that decorates flower beds with its evergreen leaves even in the winter months when most perennials rest underground.
The Bronzeteppich variety, as the name suggests, creates dense carpets dotted with numerous flowers in a warm shade of terracotta and orange. It blooms gradually from May to July, becoming an irresistible attraction for bees and other pollinators, who find a rich source of food in its flowers. It grows only to a height of about twenty centimeters, so it is perfectly suited for the edges of flower beds or rockeries, where it fills the empty spaces between stones. Although it is not suitable for cutting into a vase or drying, its value in a living garden is irreplaceable. Care for it is minimal; just provide it with well-drained sandy soil and plenty of sun, and it will take care of the rest itself.

Helianthemum hybrida
Rock rose Sulphureum Plenum
Rock rose Sulphureum Plenum is literally a sun lover that will brighten up any rockery or dry wall. The original species of these low subshrubs are found on sunny and rocky hillsides, which is why even in the garden they require well-drained, poorer, and rather sandy soil where water does not sit. From May to July, the plant is covered with a flood of tiny double flowers in a pastel yellow shade, resembling miniature roses in shape. Thanks to its low and creeping growth, it is perfectly suited for edging flower beds or filling joints between stones. A great advantage is the winter effect, where the plant retains its fresh green foliage, so the flower bed does not remain empty even under the snow. To help this rock rose maintain its compact and dense shape, we recommend trimming it after flowering. It is fully frost-hardy and attracts a large number of pollinators.

Helianthemum hybrida
Rock rose Supreme
Cherry-red flowers and dark green leaves make the Rock rose 'Supreme' (Helianthemum hybrida) an unmissable element of every garden. The roughly twenty-centimeter subshrub blooms tirelessly from May to July, bringing with it the atmosphere of sun-drenched meadows. Although the delicate flowers cannot be dried or cut for a vase, they fully compensate for this in the garden. They intensely attract pollinators and are completely edible, so you can use them to liven up dishes in the kitchen. The Rock rose thrives in conditions similar to its natural environment on sun-warmed rocky slopes. Sufficient heat, direct sun, and lean, well-drained sandy soil are essential for it. Thanks to the rooted potted seedling you will receive from us, planting directly in its permanent location is very easy. The plant stands out for its high resistance to common diseases and pests and reliably handles frosts down to -23 °C. It holds its shape even in winter, so no empty space remains afterward. It is excellent for gravel areas, path borders, and among other drought-tolerant perennials. You will make the biggest impression if you plant several pieces together; the ideal spacing for planting is 30 to 40 centimeters.

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. 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.
