Cornflower Amethyst in Snow, Loukykvět
Cornflower Amethyst in Snow, Loukykvět

Centaurea montana

Cornflower Amethyst in Snow

The Amethyst in Snow cornflower is an absolute unique among mountain cornflowers that will liven up every garden. While the classic mountain cornflower blooms blue, this cultivar offers a gorgeous contrast of pure white flowers with a dark purple center. The original species occurs in almost all mountainous areas of Central and Southern Europe on high-altitude meadows and light clearings, thanks to which the plant is extraordinarily resilient and fully frost-resistant. With its height around 40 to 50 centimeters, it excellently suits the edges of beds or into natural plantings, where it will apply in rural submontane gardens with other robust species. It spreads very well and can create a continuous stand over time. The flowers are not only beautiful to look at, but also edible, so you can safely decorate summer salads or desserts with them. If you want to transfer a piece of this beauty home, do not hesitate to cut it into a vase, where it will last fresh for about a week. It is a rewarding perennial for beginners, which does not suffer from diseases or pests and reliably attracts bees. Show full description

Meadow rue Decorum, Loukykvět

Thalictrum delavayi

Meadow rue 'Decorum' brings unrepeatable lightness and elegance to perennial beds. This robust perennial comes from the mountainous regions of China, where it grows in moister thickets and on grassy slopes. In the garden, it will enchant you with its delicate, lilac to lavender flowers that hover like a purple haze above the dark green, finely divided leaves. It grows to an impressive height of up to 150 cm, making it a great fit for the background of flower beds, where it forms an airy backdrop for other plants. Given its height and fragile appearance, it will appreciate support so the wind does not break it. It loves humous, well-drained soil with plenty of moisture and a location in full sun or partial shade. The flowers are a magnet for pollinators, and in summer, the bed will literally come alive with buzzing. Even though the plant looks very delicate, it is fully frost-hardy. If you like making bouquets, meadow rue is an ideal addition for lightening up the arrangement, but it is not suitable for drying. Just remember that the entire plant is poisonous.

Knautia Red Knight, Loukykvět

Knautia macedonica

Macedonian scabious is an abundantly and long-blooming, undemanding perennial that will bring the untamed charm of summer meadows to the garden. Its wild form originates from the sun-drenched Balkans, where it naturally grows on sunny hillsides and in warm thickets. You will receive from us a mature seedling in a pot, which just needs to be transplanted into well-drained loamy or sandy soil in the sun or partial shade. Here it will quickly take root and form a vigorous clump. The Red Knight cultivar enchants with slender stems up to ninety centimeters tall, which all summer from June to September carry a flood of dark burgundy to deep wine-red flowers. These edible flowers act as a huge attraction for bees, bumblebees, and other insects. The plant is an ideal choice for beginners because it reliably resists frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees and does not suffer from any pests or diseases. Although it belongs to short-lived perennials, in a suitable place it gladly self-seeds. It will fit perfectly into naturalistically designed plantings with ornamental grasses and is popularly used in sweeping meadow bouquets. We recommend cutting the flowers fully open; they will then stay beautifully fresh in a vase for several days.

Blue-eyed Mary, Loukykvět

Omphalodes verna

Spring navelwort is a groundcover woodland perennial native to southern Europe. It naturalized in our gardens as early as the 16th century, and in suitable places, it can form dense carpets of fresh green leaves. Thanks to this, it works as a reliable undergrowth beneath shrubs and trees, where it naturally retains moisture and prevents weed growth. The sky-blue flowers, strikingly similar to forget-me-nots, appear early in the spring, from March to May, and attract the first bees and other pollinators. The plant thrives in partial shade to full shade and requires humus-rich, loamy soil. It is a completely undemanding and frost-hardy perennial that is not bothered by pests or diseases. Although it is a lower plant, its tiny flowers can also be used in delicate spring arrangements.

Sea holly Silver Salentino, Loukykvět
For drying

Eryngium planum

Sea holly Silver Salentino stands out with the silvery metallic color of its flowers and bracts, which looks very modern and novel in flower beds. This perennial will find its use mainly in naturally styled steppe and gravel beds, where it will appreciate full sun and well-drained, even poorer sandy soil. It is an undemanding plant that even beginners can handle; it does not need support and tolerates drought excellently. The flowers are literally a magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies, so you will bring a lot of life to the garden with it. Floristically, sea holly is very valuable because its sturdy stems with striking bracts last a long time in a vase and are also perfectly suited for drying into winter decorations. An interesting historical fact is that the roots of some species used to be eaten candied as sweets in England and France. In folk medicine, it was used as an aphrodisiac, which is where its popular name "male fidelity" comes from.

Dwarf Lady's Mantle, Loukykvět

Alchemilla erythropoda

Dwarf Lady's Mantle is a smaller and more elegant sister to the more famous Lady's Mantle. This charming perennial comes from the mountain meadows of Eastern Europe and the Caucasus, where it forms low cushions in rock crevices and on grassy slopes. It got its species name from its strikingly red-colored stems, which create a beautiful contrast with its grayish-green leaves. These have the ability to catch drops of morning dew or rain, which sparkle on them like little pearls, giving the plant a magical look. Thanks to its compact growth, reaching a height of only about 25 centimeters, it is an ideal choice for edging flowerbeds, for rockeries, or as an underplanting beneath taller perennials and roses. It blooms from May to July with a flood of tiny lime-yellow blossoms that will brighten up even the semi-shady corners of the garden. It is a completely undemanding plant suitable even for novice growers, it does not suffer from pests or diseases, and reliably handles even stronger frosts. In floristry, Lady's Mantle is valued as universal supplementary greenery. Its airy inflorescences add lightness and volume to bouquets, while staying fresh in a vase for a long time. Furthermore, the flowers can be perfectly dried and used in winter arrangements.

Goat's beard Charakter, Loukykvět
New

Aruncus aethusifolius

Goatsbeard 'Charakter' is a cute miniature of its better-known and much larger relative, the standard goatsbeard. This tiny perennial comes from the wooded areas of Korea and Japan, where it decorates the undergrowth of trees with its fine, deeply cut leaves resembling ferns. In May and June, airy panicles of creamy-white flowers appear above the compact clump of fresh green leaves. Thanks to its low growth, it is an ideal choice for shady rockeries, bed borders, or as an underplanting beneath taller shrubs, where it reliably suppresses weeds. It is an absolutely undemanding plant suitable even for novice growers, free from pests, and excellently handles even severe frosts. Its inflorescences can be used in small arrangements and retain their shape after drying, making them perfect for dry binding as well. In autumn, it will additionally delight you when its leaves turn beautiful orange to red shades.

Lady's Mantle Robustica, Loukykvět

Alchemilla mollis

Lady's mantle 'Robustica' will bring freshness and harmony to your flower beds with its bright green leaves and a flood of tiny flowers. In the wild, it can be found in damp meadows and by streams, and even in the garden, it is very hardy and vigorous. Its main advantage is its decorative leaves with fine hairs, which hold water droplets after rain or in the morning – an effect that has fascinated gardeners for centuries. The 'Robustica' cultivar lives up to its name with its upright growth and strong structure, growing up to 60 cm tall and requiring no support. In flower beds, it plays an important role as a connecting element. It is often planted as an edging for walkways or as a companion plant for roses and peonies, providing them with a calm, green background. In addition to its ornamental function, it is also useful – it attracts pollinators and its leaves are edible. If you like to be creative, you will appreciate it in cut bouquets, where it stays fresh for about ten days. It is equally well suited for drying; just harvest it in full bloom and hang it up, so it reminds you of summer even in the winter months.

Cornflower Amethyst Dream, Loukykvět

Centaurea montana

Amethyst Dream brings an unusual shade of deep purple into spring and summer beds, which acts very elegantly. This mountain cornflower grows to a height of around half a meter and forms compact clumps of green leaves, from which conspicuous inflorescences grow from May to July. It is an ideal plant for beginner growers, because it does not require any special care and is fully frost-resistant even up to extreme temperatures. Common loamy and well-draining soil in the sun or in partial shade suits it. Unlike classic blue cornflowers, this cultivar is richer and more color-stable. You can cut the flowers into a vase without worries, where they will last fresh for about a week, or use them in the kitchen, because they are edible. In perennial compositions, it excellently functions as a connecting element between taller and shorter plants and its flowers reliably attract beneficial insects.

Phlox Sweet Summer Ocean, Loukykvět

Phlox paniculata

Phlox is originally a perennial native to North America. It soon achieved great popularity in European gardens and has been systematically bred since the 19th century. It is a classic perennial for cutting into bouquets, where, in addition to colorful flowers, it also delights with a gentle fragrance. We harvest as soon as roughly half the flowers in the inflorescence have bloomed; then they last up to 10 days in a vase. Despite efforts to breed the most resistant cultivars, it remains true that Phlox reacts extremely sensitively to climate and soil conditions, so we carefully pay attention to the correct choice of site. The Sweet Summer series includes cultivars bred for greater resistance to fungal diseases. Sweet Summer Ocean is a very special cultivar introduced to the market in 2012. It is characterized by the color variability of flowers during the day. In cool mornings, the flowers are blue; as temperatures rise, they fade, and by noon they transition to purple-pink.

Anemone Praecox, Loukykvět

Anemone hupehensis

Anemones come from the same family as buttercups. With their elegant flowers on long, slender stems, they can brighten up and illuminate late summer and autumn flower beds. They stand out against a darker background of shrub groups and will also be grateful for their partial shade. The Czech Perennials Association chose autumn anemones as the perennial of the 2022 season. They last 7 days in a vase. Anemone Praecox is a compactly growing cultivar with a rich set of flowers. Due to its lower stature, it is perfectly suitable even for smaller gardens and for growing in containers. A big plus is the early flowering time, and the slightly darker coloring of the underside of the petals adds an interesting touch.

Great Burnet, Loukykvět
Perennial of the Season 2026

Sanguisorba officinalis

Great burnet is a native meadow plant that naturally grows in wet meadows, where it forms dense clumps of dark green pinnate leaves. In the middle of summer, tall, richly branched stems grow from them, topped with tiny dark red to burgundy flower heads that gently sway in the breeze. This perennial is absolutely indispensable for the life cycle of the rare scarce large blue butterfly, which it will reliably attract to your garden with its flowers. In perennial beds, it stands out especially in naturalistic compositions, where in combination with ornamental grasses it creates an airy and light effect. The inflorescences are also an excellent material for florists, adding an unusual structure and color accent to bouquets, while staying fresh for seven to ten days in a vase. If you don't harvest them fresh, you can dry them for winter decorations, as they hold their shape for a long time.

Lovegrass, Loukykvět

Eragrostis spectabilis

Lovegrass originates from the sun-drenched plains of North America, where it naturally grows on dry and well-drained soils. This undemanding tufted grass is an ideal choice for beginner growers, as it does not suffer from any diseases or pests and easily handles frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees. During the season, its green leaves will catch your eye, gradually acquiring a warm orange to wine-red hue as autumn approaches. It stands out primarily in group plantings or in combination with drought-tolerant perennials, where it can beautifully soften and visually connect the entire composition. The real magic, however, lies in its blooming. During August and September, it creates literal clouds of tiny pink flower panicles above the leaf clumps, hovering at a height of around fifty centimeters. For its airiness and elegance, lovegrass is also exceptionally popular for cutting. Florists love to use it in summer and autumn bouquets, to which it adds lightness and volume. It is also perfect for drying, so you can preserve its charm for winter arrangements as well.

Masterwort Star of Love, Loukykvět
New

Astrantia

Masterwort 'Star of Love' is one of those rare treasures that can fully brighten up even slightly shaded places under trees. In nature, it commonly grows in bright clearings, forest edges, and moister meadow stands of Europe, which clearly hints at what suits it. It likes well-drained but nutrient-rich loamy soil that retains moisture. Although it prefers partial shade, it can handle full sun without difficulty; only in such a case will it need more regular watering. You will receive a healthy and strong seedling in a pot from us, which just needs to be planted in its permanent place in the flower bed. You don't have to worry about tedious care; masterwort is an extremely resilient long-lived perennial. Frost down to minus thirty-three degrees will not surprise it at all, and even complete beginners can easily grow it. Only in spring do we recommend watching out for slugs, which occasionally like to feast on its sprouting leaves. The 'Star of Love' variety lives up to its name and stands out with the striking burgundy coloring of its flowers, which bring joy all summer from June to the end of August. They grow on sturdy stems without the need for any support and form dense green clumps reaching a height of roughly sixty centimeters. The flower itself is composed of a delicate central umbel protected by prominent bracts, giving the whole plant a unique look. These burgundy flowers will not escape the attention of pollinators and happily attract bees from the wide surroundings. From a garden use perspective, it is an ideal filler plant for mixed perennial beds, where it introduces an interesting structure when planted at about seven pieces per square meter. Furthermore, it is an absolute hit for lovers of cut flowers. In a vase as part of bouquets, it looks exceptionally delicate and will continue to bring joy for many days. It is also perfectly suited for drying for various floristry ideas. And you can even use its flowers to decorate desserts.

Persicaria Lisan, Loukykvět

Persicaria amplexicaulis

Persicaria 'Lisan' is an indispensable perennial for anyone who wants to have a blooming garden even in the second half of summer and in autumn. This type of persicaria has its origins in the mountainous regions of the Himalayas, where it naturally inhabits moister meadows and forest edges. As a result, the plant is very hardy and vigorous even in the garden, loves nutritious, humous soils that retain moisture, and thrives in both sun and partial shade. In plantings, it is valued for its ability to quickly close the canopy and suppress weeds, while not suffering from diseases or pests. Its dense clumps of fresh green leaves form a perfect undergrowth under taller shrubs or trees and bring dynamics to the beds even when other summer perennials are already fading. The 'Lisan' cultivar stands out for its striking, crimson-red inflorescences in the shape of narrow spikes, which tower above the leaves from July until the first frosts in October. Compared to some other persicarias, it grows to a more compact height of between 50 and 75 centimeters and does not require support, as its stems are firm and upright. These candle-like flowers look very impressive in perennial plantings and are literally a magnet for bees and other pollinators. Persicaria 'Lisan' is also excellent for cutting into a vase, where its rich color and interesting structure will last for several days and perfectly complement autumn arrangements.

Oriental Poppy Brilliant, Loukykvět

Papaver orientale

Oriental poppy Brilliant is a beautiful perennial originating from the regions of the Caucasus, Turkey, and Iran, where it naturally grows on rocky slopes and dry sunny meadows. Thanks to this, it will do best in your garden in full sun in well-drained loamy soil. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant straight into the flower bed, where it will root very quickly. In June, you can look forward to huge bowl-shaped flowers on sturdy stems reaching a height of up to eighty centimeters. The Brilliant variety enchants with its radiant scarlet-red petals, which are complemented in the center by dark burgundy to black spots and stamens. These flowers are a great attraction for bees and other pollinators. After flowering, the large fuzzy leaves die back and the plant takes a summer break, so we recommend planting the poppy alongside later-sprouting perennials or ornamental grasses, which will cover the empty space. Even beginners can easily handle its cultivation, the plant does not suffer from common diseases and easily withstands frosts down to minus forty degrees. You only need to watch out for voles, which unfortunately like the taste of its roots. The flowers can also be used for cutting into summer bouquets. We harvest them at the moment when the colored buds begin to open. If you sear the ends of the stems with a flame for about twenty seconds and immediately put them into cold water, they will bring you joy in a vase for up to four days.

Cultivation

Chrpa horská je vděčnou trvalkou, která se nejlépe uplatní ve venkovských a přírodních zahradách, kde vynikne ve skupinové výsadbě. Sazenice vysazujeme do dobře připravené, kypré a humózní půdy. Místo by mělo být propustné, protože v těžké a zamokřené půdě by mohly kořeny uhnívat. Ideální je stanoviště na slunci, kde se jí daří nejlépe, ale bez problémů poroste i v polostínu pod korunami vyšších stromů, které jí poskytnou ochranu před úpalem. Při výsadbě dbejte na to, aby byl kořenový bal sazenice dostatečně vlhký, a po zasazení rostlinu důkladně zalijte. Díky svému podzemnímu oddenku se rostlina časem rozrůstá do plochy a vytváří husté polštáře, proto jí nechte kolem sebe dostatek prostoru.

Během vegetace je údržba minimální. Rostlina je zvyklá na horské podmínky, takže je velmi vitální. Pokud pěstujete chrpu v chudší půdě, prospěje jí na jaře přídavek kompostu nebo organického hnojiva. Velmi důležitým úkonem je zpětný řez po odkvětu. Když první vlna bílo-fialových květů uvadne, ostříhejte celé stonky nízko nad zemí. Rostlina tím získá novou energii, znovu obrazí krásnými zdravými listy a udrží si úhledný tvar až do podzimu. Často se také stává, že po tomto zásahu vykvete podruhé. Vzhledem k tomu, že rostlina netrpí chorobami a hmyz ji zpravidla nenapadá, nemusíte se obávat složité ochrany a můžete se těšit z opylovačů, které do zahrady přiláká.

Co se týče přezimování, 'Amethyst in Snow' je naprostý nezmar. Je plně mrazuvzdorná v celém našem podnebí a nevyžaduje žádné zakrývání chvojím ani mulčem. Pokud se rozhodnete pro pěstování v truhlíku či květináči na balkoně, je to možné, ale volte dostatečně velkou a hlubokou nádobu. V omezeném prostoru kořenového balu je totiž rostlina náchylnější na výkyvy teplot a vlhkosti. V nádobách dbejte na pravidelnou zálivku, aby substrát nikdy zcela nevyschl, ale zároveň zajistěte dobrý odtok přebytečné vody. Na zimu je vhodné nádobu izolovat nebo zapustit do země, aby kořeny nepromrzly tak rychle jako ve volné půdě, ačkoliv je rostlina vůči mrazu velmi odolná.

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.

Mountain Cornflower, Loukykvět

Centaurea montana

Cornflower Amethyst Dream, Loukykvět

Centaurea montana

Amethyst Dream brings an unusual shade of deep purple into spring and summer beds, which acts very elegantly. This mountain cornflower grows to a height of around half a meter and forms compact clumps of green leaves, from which conspicuous inflorescences grow from May to July. It is an ideal plant for beginner growers, because it does not require any special care and is fully frost-resistant even up to extreme temperatures. Common loamy and well-draining soil in the sun or in partial shade suits it. Unlike classic blue cornflowers, this cultivar is richer and more color-stable. You can cut the flowers into a vase without worries, where they will last fresh for about a week, or use them in the kitchen, because they are edible. In perennial compositions, it excellently functions as a connecting element between taller and shorter plants and its flowers reliably attract beneficial insects.

Lady's mantle Irish Silk, Loukykvět

Alchemilla mollis

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.

Sea Holly, Loukykvět
For drying

Eryngium planum

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.
