Carex remota
Remote Sedge
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.

Sporobolus heterolepis
Dropseed
Prairie dropseed originates from the vast North American prairies, where it forms a natural part of the wild and unbridled landscape. This ornamental grass grows in neat and very dense clumps of fresh green leaves, which turn bright yellow shades in autumn. During August and September, delicate clouds of pink and beige flowers hover above the clumps on sturdy stalks, reaching a height of up to seventy centimeters. The flowers also spread a very pleasant and unmistakable fragrance into their surroundings. In the garden, prairie dropseed stands out best when planted in a sunny spot in groups of multiple plants accompanied by other drought-tolerant perennials, with which it will create an impressive steppe scenery. The seedlings do not require any complicated care, they easily handle frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees, and do not suffer from any diseases or pests. The airy and fragrant inflorescences are also perfectly suited for cutting into summer bouquets, to which they add unusual lightness and texture.

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.

Isodon longitubus
Isodon longitubus
The Japanese perennial Isodon longitubus is a welcome addition to any shady corner of the garden that lacks color in the autumn. Its home is in the moister edges of Asian forests, where it grows in pleasant partial shade; therefore, it requires protection from direct sun in our conditions as well. It thrives in normally moist, well-drained, humus-rich loamy soil. From our shipment, you will unbox a strong potted plant, ready for immediate planting at a spacing of forty centimeters. The Isodon stands out primarily for its late blooming at the very end of the season. While other plants are fading, it opens into delicate blue-violet flowers in October, which attract stray bees and other pollinators. Although the thin stems are not suitable for bouquets or drying, they bring much joy to a front garden. Care is very easy; the plant is not bothered by pests, maintains its compact shape without staking, and reliably withstands winter down to minus twenty-three degrees.

Fragaria vesca
Wild Strawberry
Wild strawberry brings to the garden the charm of forest clearings and sunny glades, where it naturally occurs across all of Europe and northern Asia. This tiny but hardy herb is valued primarily for its incredibly aromatic fruits, which, although they cannot compete with cultivated garden strawberries in size, easily surpass them in their intense flavor and aroma. The plant forms low cushions of deep green trifoliate leaves, and from April to June it is adorned with tiny, pure white flowers that are an irresistible attraction for bees and other pollinators. Thanks to its low maintenance and frost resistance down to -35 °C, it is an ideal choice even for beginner growers.
In the garden, wild strawberry perfectly fulfills the function of a groundcover perennial that spreads quickly via long above-ground runners and can effectively suppress weeds. It does best in sun or partial shade, where it has access to humous and slightly moist soil, exactly what it would find in the undergrowth of light deciduous forests. It is suitable for natural corners of the garden, under shrubs or as an edging for flowerbeds, where you can pick a sweet reward at any time. Although you won't use it much for cutting into a vase or for drying, its value lies in its living beauty and edible fruits, which ripen gradually and offer the purest taste of nature right at your home.

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.

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.

The firm central cones additionally dry excellently, and you are guaranteed to use them in various dried arrangements and autumn decorations. Definitely do not cut the faded dark centers on the flowerbeds before the arrival of winter, because they will retain their firm shape and, covered by hoarfrost, will ensure an engaging winter spectacle.

Cultivation
Growing the Sedge 'Remota' (Carex remota) is a great solution for shady and damp spots in your garden. We recommend planting this seedling in a location that mimics its natural environment, i.e., in light partial shade to a cool, shady corner. For successful growth, it needs heavier clay or loam soil with a high humus content. It is a plant with high moisture requirements, so make sure the soil is constantly slightly damp and does not dry out. Plant the seedlings at a spacing of thirty to forty centimeters apart. This spacing is important for optimal air circulation and gives the plant room for natural self-seeding. The sedge multiplies on its own and will gradually grow into a dense, twenty to thirty-centimeter-tall undergrowth.
This adaptable perennial is also suitable for growing in pots and window boxes. When growing in containers, however, count on the fact that the plant is entirely dependent on your watering. Therefore, choose a more spacious container that will retain more moisture and fill it with a denser, nutrient-rich substrate. Fertilizing does not need to be overdone; adding a little organic fertilizer or compost in the spring is enough to support vitality. The sedge starts to bloom in early summer with small yellow-green spikes. Although the plant has no scent and its flowers are not suitable for cutting or drying, it acts as an excellent and calm background in the flowerbed for more striking shade-loving species.
Care for the sedge throughout the year does not require any special gardening skills. The great news is that it does not suffer from any common diseases, and pests avoid it altogether. It is a long-lived perennial with excellent frost resistance down to -29 degrees Celsius (climatic zone 5a). Do not cut the plant back in the autumn, as its light green leaves retain their shape even under snow, providing a very valuable winter effect. Only early in the spring, before new shoots emerge, is it enough to gently groom the clumps and remove old or browned leaves. This will promote its fresh appearance for the coming season and keep the seedling in great condition for many years.
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.
