Cultivation
Pěstování této horské chrpy je radost i pro úplné začátečníky, protože vyžaduje jen minimum pozornosti. Amethyst Dream miluje slunná stanoviště, ale bez problémů poroste i v polostínu, kde bude její tmavě fialová barva působit velmi sytě. Půda by měla být propustná a spíše hlinitá. Protože vám dorazí jako hotová sazenice, odpadá složité předpěstování. Stačí vykopat jamku o něco větší, než je kořenový bal, vložit rostlinu, přihrnout zeminou a důkladně zalít. Pokud plánujete plošnou výsadbu, sázejte rostliny ve vzdálenosti asi 40 cm od sebe, aby se později vzájemně netísnily.
Během sezóny si rostlina žádá běžnou zálivku, zejména v horkých letních dnech. Není však náročná na živiny a v příliš vyhnojené půdě by mohla ztrácet svůj pevný tvar. Klíčovým momentem údržby je odstranění odkvetlých stonků. Pokud chcete rostlinu udržet vitální a úhlednou, po hlavním kvetení v červenci ji sestřihněte. Zabráníte tím tvorbě semen, rostlina se nevysílí a naopak vytvoří svěží trs listů, který bude zdobit záhon až do podzimu. Bonusem je, že tento druh netrpí na škůdce ani choroby a je velmi lákavý pro včely a další opylovače.
Co se týče zimy, nemusíte mít žádné obavy. Tato trvalka je extrémně mrazuvzdorná (zóna 3a) a nevyžaduje zakrývání chvojím ani jinou ochranu. Pěstování v nádobách je možné a rostlina v nich vypadá velmi elegantně, avšak volte nádoby s dostatečným objemem a odtokovými otvory, aby nedocházelo k přemokření kořenů. V nádobě je nutné hlídat vlhkost substrátu pečlivěji než na záhoně. Květy můžete směle řezat do vázy, kde vydrží svěží zhruba týden, nebo je použít v kuchyni jako jedlou dekoraci pokrmů.
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.

Gaura lindheimeri
Gaura Siskiyou Pink
Gaura is a clump-forming perennial native to Texas and Louisiana. Here, it behaves more like a short-lived perennial.

Tiny flowers resembling small butterflies bloom tirelessly from June until the first frosts. For bouquets, harvest as soon as the first two or three flowers open on the stem.

A perennial that finds its place in naturalistic steppe and gravel beds. It attracts bees, bumblebees, and butterflies.

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'.

The petals are slightly wavy and the bottom row of petals is lightly tinged with green.
