Lavandula angustifolia
Lavender Munstead
Lavender 'Munstead' is one of the most popular and hardy cultivars of common lavender, which originated on the sunny, rocky slopes of the Mediterranean. Thanks to this, it tolerates drought excellently and requires full sun with well-draining, rather lean, sandy soil. In our climate, it is fully hardy and adorns the garden even in winter months with its silvery-gray foliage. The plant forms compact, dense mounds reaching a height of around 40 centimeters, making it an ideal choice for edging flower beds, rock gardens, or for growing in containers. During July and August, a flood of deep blue-violet flowers unfolds, attracting a large number of bees, bumblebees, and butterflies with their unmistakable fragrance. The flowers are perfect for cutting into fresh summer bouquets, but are especially suitable for drying. If you harvest them when the first buds begin to open, they will retain their color and intense aroma for a very long time, allowing you to use them in sachets or pillows. 'Munstead' is a cultivar prized for its vitality and rich flowering, which even a beginner gardener can manage.

Cornflower Tall Double Blue Boy
The blue cornflower is an absolute classic of our fields and meadows, which probably needs no lengthy introduction. However, the 'Tall Double Blue Boy' variety brings something extra.

Saponaria vaccaria
Vaccaria Pink Beauty
Saponaria vaccaria, or cow soapwort 'Pink Beauty', is a reliable annual that brings a romantic and airy element to summer flower beds. It easily makes up for its unconventional name with a rich profusion of tiny, pastel-pink flowers that bring a sense of lightness to the garden. These appear on sturdy stems sixty to ninety centimeters tall during the summer months, from June to September. The delicate flowers not only look beautiful and soften the surrounding plantings, but they also act as a magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which will naturally enliven your garden. For healthy growth, cow soapwort appreciates a bright location, but it can grow in light shade without any problems.
It looks very elegant in the garden, and thanks to its structure—reminiscent of baby's breath—it combines perfectly with more robust types of flowers, for which it makes a delicate background. You can confidently cut three to four richly branched stems from each plant. They will bring great joy even if you simply place them in small vases in your living room. Cow soapwort grows and blooms very quickly from seeds, which in practice means that it also fades a bit faster. If you want to enjoy its delicate pink flowers in the bed and in the vase for as long as possible, it is worth sowing the seeds in stages. You can perform direct sowing from February to May in several consecutive phases. Even complete beginners can thus have fresh cut flowers available throughout the season.

Covered seeds will germinate in five to ten days. Then, transplant them into sun or partial shade. You can repeat sowings from April to August, which will cause them to bloom gradually from July to autumn. Do not pinch the plants, but provide support for straight stems. Fresh flowers last a long time in a vase and will delight lovers of clean bouquets.

Cultivation
The key to success is choosing the right location, which should resemble its Mediterranean homeland as much as possible. Select a spot in full sun where the rays hit for most of the day. Shade does not suit lavender; plants stretch towards the light, flower sparsely, and lose their compact shape. The soil must primarily be perfectly draining, rather poor, sandy, or stony. If you have heavy clay soil in your garden, it is essential to lighten it by mixing in sand or fine gravel, or plant the lavender in raised beds so that water drains quickly. Wet roots are the only thing that can kill this otherwise indestructible plant.
Planting the purchased seedlings is best done in spring or autumn, but container-grown plants can be planted basically all season long, provided the soil is not frozen and there is no extreme heat. Given that the 'Munstead' cultivar reaches a width and height of about 40 centimeters, maintain a spacing of approximately 30 centimeters between individual plants when planting (approx. 5 to 7 pieces per square meter). This ensures sufficient air circulation, which acts as natural prevention against fungal diseases, and at the same time, the plants will eventually merge beautifully into a continuous growth. After planting, water the seedlings until they are well-established, but then be sparing with watering. Mature lavender is drought-tolerant and requires watering only during periods of extreme, long-lasting drought.
Regular pruning, which we perform twice a year, is absolutely essential for maintaining a beautiful, compact shape and rich flowering. The first pruning comes in spring (March), when we shorten the plant by about a third to support new branching and the density of the bush. Be very careful, however, not to prune down to the old wood, from which lavender struggles to resprout – always leave a part with last year's leaves. The second, milder trim follows after flowering in summer, when we remove the faded flower stalks. This cleans up the plant and often encourages it to re-bloom at the end of the season. As for nutrition, lavender is modest and does not require fertilization; an excess of nutrients would lead to lush leaf growth at the expense of flowers and reduced frost resistance.
If you do not have a garden, 'Munstead' lavender is ideal for growing in containers or window boxes due to its lower growth habit. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the pot has drainage holes and a thick drainage layer of expanded clay or pebbles at the bottom. Use a substrate for herbs mixed with sand in a 1:1 ratio. Remember that in a container, the substrate dries out faster and heats up more than in open soil, so you will have to check the watering more often, but the rule of not overwatering still applies. In winter, this variety is fully frost-hardy down to -28 °C (zone 5a) and does not require special protection in the bed. Only for plants in containers is it advisable to wrap them in jute or polystyrene for the winter to prevent the root ball from freezing, or to bury the container 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.

Delphinium consolida, known better as Larkspur, is a typical annual for both country and modern gardens. The 'QIS White' cultivar stands out with pure white flowers that densely cover long, straight stems. These can grow up to one hundred and twenty centimeters in height, creating an interesting layer in the flower bed and adding airiness to the space. The pure white color acts as a great neutral element that easily connects even very colorful flowers in the vicinity. These are wonderful spring beauties that are hard to beat at the turn of spring and summer. They are very easy to grow from seeds and pose no major challenge for beginners. In floristry, they are suitable for wedding bouquets and for drying. For a perfect cut, you must be quick and harvest the stems before all the buds have fully opened. We recommend sowing the seeds gradually at two-week intervals during the spring or at the end of summer so you can enjoy the beauty of these flowers for as long as possible.

Statice QIS Pastel
Statice is a classic from grandma's garden, but also an evergreen of dried flowers. We grow statice by the hundreds! It is incredibly useful in bouquets as filler material and even undried lasts a long time in a vase. Once all the florets on the stem bloom, statice no longer wilts and is suitable for wreaths, corsages, boutonnieres. QIS Pastel is a beautiful sample of colors in tones of blue, violet, lavender and pink. One plant produces at least 15 stems.
For drying, we harvest statice at the stage when the stem under the flower is firm and the entire inflorescence has bloomed. Just hang them upside down, in a dry and ventilated place, out of sunlight.

Cornflower Tall Double Black Boy
It is hard to imagine anything more rustic. The 'Tall Double Black Boy' variety is a much fuller-flowered Cornflower than the one we commonly see along roadsides and hedgerows. It is a truly extraordinary piece, with a color that transitions from dark burgundy and plum to almost black. It grows to a height of sixty to eighty centimeters, so it appreciates support in the flower bed to prevent its thin stems from breaking. Seeds from spring or autumn sowings germinate very readily within five to ten days. It is best to sow them directly in a sunny or semi-shaded location. The flowers appear in the summer months from June to August and become a huge attraction for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. You will appreciate the Cornflower in naturalistic gardens alongside other annuals. It is absolutely great for cutting into vases, and its flowers also retain their shape and color when dried. If you like trying new things in the kitchen, you will be pleased to know that these dark flowers are edible and will beautifully brighten up summer salads or desserts.
