Známá též jakoRákosovka velká Greenhills, Rákosník velký Greenhills
Japanese forest grass Greenhills is one of the most elegant ornamental grasses you can plant in the shady corners of your garden. It originates from the moist rocky slopes of the Japanese island of Honshu, which predestines its growing requirements. It loves humus-rich, well-draining soil that does not dry out, and it thrives best in partial shade or shade, where its leaves won't be burned by the sharp midday sun. In gardens, it is valued for its cascading growth that resembles flowing water, thus bringing much-desired movement and lightness to static plantings under trees. The Greenhills cultivar stands out with a fresh, bright green leaf color that literally lights up the darker areas under tree canopies. Unlike variegated varieties, it looks very natural and calm, creating a perfect background for other perennials. This long-lived grass does not spread by aggressive runners and keeps its compact clumping shape. Although it is not used much for cutting, it fulfills its ornamental function until late autumn, when the leaves turn warm beige and golden tones. We leave the dry clumps in the bed throughout the whole winter, when they are decorated with frost, and cut them back only in the spring. Show full description

Autumn Moor Grass, Loukykvět

Sesleria autumnalis

Autumn moor grass is an exceptionally hardy ornamental grass that introduces fresh greenery to the garden right from early spring. Native to the rocky slopes of the Balkans, it is well-adapted to free-draining soils, making it an ideal choice for novice gardeners. It forms neat clumps growing thirty to fifty centimeters tall. Its greatest asset is its bright green foliage, which emerges early and remains in pristine condition in the borders well into winter. The plant is untouched by diseases or pests and handles severe frosts superbly. In August and September, delicate creamy-beige flowers appear above the foliage. These rather subtle spikelets give the plant an elegant, refined look. In the garden, it acts as a perfect filler perennial for sunny or partially shaded spots. It looks absolutely stunning paired with calamint, airy gaura, or flowering oregano. Its delicate flowers and leaves are easily used as foliage filler in fresh bouquets, or they can be dried for small-scale floristry projects.

Feather grass Pony Tails, Loukykvět

Stipa tenuissima

Feather grass flowers capture attention in beds and bouquets with their lightness and delicacy. All feather grasses love full sun and dry, stony, well-drained soil. To look most natural in beds, it is good to plant them in loose groups of several pieces together with other drought-loving perennials and bulbs. Only then do their stems and inflorescences, set in motion by the slightest breath of wind, truly stand out. Stipa 'Ponny Tails' is a species native to the steppes of Mexico, Texas, and Patagonia. Airy, dense clumps of hair-like delicate leaves resemble horsehair. The leaves are green, turning up to straw-colored towards the flowers. In a suitable location, it also self-seeds.

Japanese forest grass Albostriata, Loukykvět
New

Hakonechloa macra

Japanese forest grass Albostriata is a true gem for the shady corners of your garden. This elegant ornamental grass comes from the moist mountain slopes of Japan, where it grows in the undergrowth of light forests and on rocky cliffs. Thanks to its cascading growth, it resembles flowing water and brings unparalleled movement and lightness to the flowerbeds whenever the wind blows. The Albostriata cultivar is prized primarily for its striking leaves, which are decorated with longitudinal white stripes on a fresh green background. This color combination can perfectly brighten up even the darkest spots under trees or taller shrubs. Although it is not suitable for cutting into vases, it fulfills its ornamental function in the garden all year round. In autumn, the leaves turn into warm golden and beige shades, creating a beautiful winter effect that stands out even under a dusting of snow. Japanese forest grass is a long-lived perennial that grows more slowly at first, but over the years forms dense and impressive clumps. It requires humus-rich, well-drained soil with plenty of moisture, but does not tolerate winter waterlogging.

Japanese forest grass Beni-kaze, Loukykvět
New

Hakonechloa macra

Japanese forest grass is a true jewel for shady and semi-shady corners of gardens, bringing an unrepeatable lightness. This elegant ornamental grass originates from the moist rocky cliffs of Japan, where it naturally forms cascading stands. Thanks to its origin, it loves well-draining, humus-rich soil that does not dry out, and appreciates protection from the harsh midday sun. In the garden, it works great as undergrowth beneath trees and shrubs or as an edging element along paths, where its stems wave beautifully in even the gentlest breeze. The Beni-kaze cultivar, whose name poetically translates to red wind, does justice to its name and is sought after for its color variability. While the plant is fresh green and resembles a small bamboo in the spring and summer, with the arrival of cooler autumn days, its leaves begin to turn into deep tones of red, burgundy, and bronze. This color show continues into winter, when the plant dries out, but thanks to its sturdy stems, it keeps its attractive shape even under a dusting of snow. It is a long-lived perennial that does not suffer from diseases or pests, and is an ideal choice for beginners. You just need to cut it low to the ground in the spring and it will sprout back into beauty.

Bugleweed Rosea, Loukykvět
New

Ajuga reptans

Creeping bugleweed is a rewarding and undemanding perennial that inhabits moister deciduous forests and meadows across Europe in the wild. Thanks to its ability to spread quickly using above-ground runners, it creates dense carpets that effectively suppress weed growth and cover bare spots in the undergrowth of trees or shrubs. The Rosea cultivar differs from the original wild species with its delicate, light pink flower spikes, which appear from April to June. Even though it is not suitable for cutting into a vase, it will make a great show in the garden and serve as a valuable source of nectar for bees and bumblebees in the spring period. The plant is fully frost-resistant and its evergreen leaves decorate the bed even during winter, which you will appreciate during periods without snow cover.

Echinacea pallida, Loukykvět

Echinacea pallida

The pale coneflower is one of the exceptionally interesting prairie perennials of the North American continent. In its natural environment, it grows on open, sunny plains, which is why it thrives best in our gardens in full sun in drier, well-drained soil. You just need to transplant this grown seedling straight into the flower bed, where it will reliably take root. It does not need support, easily withstands severe frosts, and is avoided by common diseases and pests, making it ideal for beginner growers. During June and July, it will reward you with aromatic flowers with unusually narrow and drooping petals in light purple and pink tones. The prominent prickly centers are literally a magnet for bees and bumblebees, and the flowers themselves are surprisingly edible. The plant stands out especially in rustic plantings together with ornamental grasses. Gardeners and florists love it for its versatility. The fresh stems bring joy in a vase for about a week. Moreover, the distinctive central cones hold their shape perfectly, can be perfectly dried for winter decorations, or left in the flower bed, where they will create an eye-catching winter structure under a layer of snow.

Anemone September Charm, Loukykvět

Anemone

Autumn anemones are an indispensable part of perennial beds because they take over the flowering baton at a time when most summer species are already fading and the garden begins to take on autumn tones. The original botanical species grow in the moister soils of China and Japan, which predestines their growing requirements in our conditions. They require well-drained but non-drying soil rich in nutrients, ideally in partial shade under trees. 'September Charm' is a reliable variety that will delight you with large pink flowers with a prominent yellow center. The flowers on tall branching stems look very romantic and attract the last pollinators, especially bees. They are excellently suited for cutting into autumn bouquets, where they will stay in good condition for about a week. The plant is hardy and long-lived, but remember that as a representative of the buttercup family, it is poisonous.

Woodland Sage Caradonna, Loukykvět

Salvia nemorosa

This species of sage originally comes from the steppe regions of Central and Eastern Europe. It forms profusely flowering small clumps with straight upright stems. In flower beds, it looks best in groups. Traditionally, due to the identical flowering time, it is planted as a companion to roses. However, it will look just as good in mixed drought-loving steppe plantings with grasses. It lasts 7 days in a vase. The cultivar Caradonna stands out with a long flowering period and dark, almost black-purple stems with tiny purple flowers and dark purple bracts. If we cut it back after flowering, it will bloom again in late August and September.

Red Valerian Rosato Rose Pink, Loukykvět

Centranthus ruber

The 'Rosato Rose Pink' valerian is a richly flowering perennial whose original homeland is the sunny and warm Mediterranean. It grows there on rocky slopes, and therefore, even in your garden, it will appreciate rather poorer, well-drained sandy or loamy soil in direct sun. The seedling you receive from us in a pot simply needs to be transplanted into the flowerbed, where it will quickly form an airy bush with gray-green leaves up to one meter tall. It is completely undemanding, does not need support, does not suffer from diseases or pests, and can handle frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees. Although it belongs among short-lived perennials, it reliably self-seeds in a suitable location. Among perennials, valerian has an unrivaled longest blooming period. From May to September, it forms convex panicles full of tiny, fragrant florets in a vibrant raspberry pink shade, which are an attraction for bees and butterflies. It fits perfectly into drought-tolerant plantings. For bouquets, we cut sturdy stems with freshly bloomed panicles, which will last around seven days in a vase.

Brunnera macrophylla, Loukykvět

Brunnera macrophylla

The largeleaf brunnera comes from the moist mountain forests of the Caucasus, where it forms dense undergrowth. It is an ideal perennial for shady and semi-shady corners of your garden, where it will thrive in humus-rich, moist soil. It resembles classic forget-me-nots in appearance, but don't be fooled, its leaves are much larger, heart-shaped, and rough to the touch. Thanks to them, it acts as a great groundcover plant that sprouts early in the spring and reliably covers bare soil with its leaves until late autumn. It thus forms a natural contrasting background for the delicate, tiny flowers. Tiny sky-blue flowers appear in April, May, and June, creating a beautiful delicate veil over the green carpet of leaves. The flower clusters are also suitable for cutting into spring hand-tied bouquets, where they look very tender. Just watch out for snails and slugs, who like to feast on the juicy leaves of the brunnera, so it's a good idea to check the plants regularly. It is a long-lived and hardy perennial that handles severe frosts without problems and will bring you joy in one place for many years.

Gaura Whirling Butterflies, Loukykvět

Gaura lindheimeri

The charming Gaura 'Whirling Butterflies' is exactly the perennial that will give any flower bed a relaxed, natural look. It originally comes from the dry and hot plains of southern North America, which clearly suggests that it loves sunshine and well-drained sandy soil. You will receive from us a beautifully grown seedling in a pot, which you can simply transplant straight into the garden. Here, it will soon form a dense clump of green leaves, from which long, thin stems dotted with flowers emerge all summer until October.

It can handle even stronger frosts down to minus eighteen degrees. It looks excellent in mixed plantings next to drought-tolerant grasses or other undemanding species. Although it is a short-lived perennial, it willingly self-seeds, meaning it will stay with you in its location for a very long time. If you like creating fresh summer bouquets, Gaura will definitely not disappoint you. You just need to cut the stems the moment the first small flowers open. It is a completely undemanding species without serious diseases, which needs no support and will forgive even beginner mistakes.

Phlomis Russeliana, Loukykvět

Phlomis russeliana

Phlomis, sometimes nicknamed Jerusalem sage, is a valuable perennial bringing a Mediterranean atmosphere to the garden. Originally from the Greek islands and Turkey, this plant is accustomed to harsher conditions, thanks to which it perfectly handles our hot summers and poorer, well-drained soils. Its gray-green, felt-like leaves form a dense cover that works as a reliable barrier against weeds, and it surprisingly tolerates shade under tree canopies well, provided it is not too moist there. In summer, it will thrill you with pastel yellow flowers arranged in regular whorls above each other, which look very exotic and attract plenty of bees and bumblebees. For florists, phlomis is a literal treasure. The fresh flowers look very elegant in a vase, but dried stems with mature seed pods will put on an even greater show. These hold their shape for a long time and are one of the best materials for dried arrangements. Moreover, you can leave them standing in the flowerbed until spring, because their striking silhouette looks breathtaking when covered in frost. It is a rewarding and long-lived plant that even a complete beginner can easily handle.

Sedum Matrona, Loukykvět

Sedum spectabile

Showy stonecrop is one of the longest-living and hardiest perennials you can treat your garden to. It originally comes from the Far East, where it colonizes sunny and dry slopes. For successful cultivation, you simply need to find it a spot in direct sun with well-drained sandy soil. The 'Matrona' cultivar catches the eye at first glance with its fleshy, grayish-green leaves with a burgundy tinge and sturdy stems that do not break and need no support. We will deliver a mature potted seedling that you can easily transplant straight into the flowerbed after unpacking. We recommend planting five to seven plants per square meter; they will soon join into a solid stand around seventy centimeters tall. From August to October, it will then delight you with rich, flat inflorescences in an old rose color. It is an ideal choice for those looking for beauty without unnecessary effort. This stonecrop easily survives harsh winters with frosts dropping to minus twenty-eight degrees, and pests and diseases avoid it. The 'Matrona' variety differs from others in that it will reliably grow even in more nutritious soil, provided it is not waterlogged. In perennial compositions, it creates a beautiful contrast next to delicate ornamental grasses and other autumn flowers. During sunny days, bees, butterflies, and other pollinators constantly take turns over its flowers. You can boldly use the sturdy stems with pink umbels for cutting. They stay fresh in a vase for quite a long time and will bring a touch of the slowly ending summer into your home. 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.

Cultivation

Výběr stanoviště a příprava půdy
Rákosovka japonská Greenhills je pokladem pro stinné části zahrady, kde by se jiným okrasným travám nedařilo. Pro její výsadbu zvolte polostinné až stinné stanoviště, ideálně pod korunami stromů nebo na severní či východní straně domu. Přímé polední slunce by mohlo její jemné listy popálit. Půda by měla být kyprá, bohatá na humus a propustná. Pokud máte na zahradě těžkou jílovitou zeminu, je nutné ji vylehčit přimícháním kompostu nebo listovky, aby kořeny mohly dýchat a nestály ve vodě. Naopak v příliš písčité půdě by rostlina trpěla suchem.
Výsadba a zálivka
Sazenice vysazujeme tak, aby horní část kořenového balu byla v rovině s okolním terénem. Doporučený spon výsadby je 30–40 cm (přibližně 6 až 9 rostlin na metr čtvereční), což časem vytvoří souvislý, nádherně kaskádovitý porost. Po výsadbě je nezbytná pravidelná zálivka, dokud rostlina dobře nezakoření. Rákosovka má ráda vlhko, ale nesnáší přemokření. Půda by měla být stále mírně vlhká („fresh“). 
Péče během roku a hnojení
Jedná se o nenáročnou trvalku, která netrpí na škůdce ani choroby. Během vegetační sezóny stačí hlídat vlhkost půdy, zejména v horkých letních dnech. Hnojení není nutné přehánět; stačí na jaře přidat k trsům trochu vyzrálého kompostu nebo použít pomalu rozpustné hnojivo pro okrasné trávy. Rákosovka roste trsovitě a nerozrůstá se agresivně do okolí, takže ji nemusíte omezovat zábranami. Díky své odolnosti a dlouhověkosti vydrží na jednom místě mnoho let bez nutnosti přesazování.
Zimování a jarní řez
I když listy na podzim zhnědnou a zaschnou, nikdy je nestříhejte před zimou. Suché trsy plní důležitou ochrannou funkci – chrání střed rostliny („srdíčko“) před mrazem a nadměrnou vlhkostí, která by mohla způsobit uhnívání. Navíc ojíněné trsy vypadají v zimní zahradě velmi efektně. Sestřih provádíme až brzy na jaře (obvykle v březnu), kdy celý trs seřízneme přibližně 5–10 cm nad zemí. Poté rostlina znovu obrazí svěžími zelenými listy.
Pěstování v nádobách
Rákosovka Greenhills je vynikající volbou i pro pěstování v květináčích a truhlících na stinných terasách či balkonech. Nádoba musí mít odtokové otvory a na dno je vhodné dát drenážní vrstvu z kamínků nebo keramzitu. Použijte kvalitní substrát pro trvalky smíchaný s trochou kompostu. U rostlin v nádobách je nutné dbát na častější zálivku, protože substrát vysychá rychleji než volná půda. Na zimu doporučujeme nádobu obalit jutou nebo polystyrenem a postavit ji na chráněné místo, aby kořenový bal nepromrzl, jelikož v nádobě je rostlina vůči mrazu citlivější než v záhonu.

Japanese forest grass Albostriata, Loukykvět
New

Hakonechloa macra

Japanese forest grass Albostriata is a true gem for the shady corners of your garden. This elegant ornamental grass comes from the moist mountain slopes of Japan, where it grows in the undergrowth of light forests and on rocky cliffs. Thanks to its cascading growth, it resembles flowing water and brings unparalleled movement and lightness to the flowerbeds whenever the wind blows. The Albostriata cultivar is prized primarily for its striking leaves, which are decorated with longitudinal white stripes on a fresh green background. This color combination can perfectly brighten up even the darkest spots under trees or taller shrubs. Although it is not suitable for cutting into vases, it fulfills its ornamental function in the garden all year round. In autumn, the leaves turn into warm golden and beige shades, creating a beautiful winter effect that stands out even under a dusting of snow. Japanese forest grass is a long-lived perennial that grows more slowly at first, but over the years forms dense and impressive clumps. It requires humus-rich, well-drained soil with plenty of moisture, but does not tolerate winter waterlogging.

Japanese forest grass Beni-kaze, Loukykvět
New

Hakonechloa macra

Japanese forest grass is a true jewel for shady and semi-shady corners of gardens, bringing an unrepeatable lightness. This elegant ornamental grass originates from the moist rocky cliffs of Japan, where it naturally forms cascading stands. Thanks to its origin, it loves well-draining, humus-rich soil that does not dry out, and appreciates protection from the harsh midday sun. In the garden, it works great as undergrowth beneath trees and shrubs or as an edging element along paths, where its stems wave beautifully in even the gentlest breeze. The Beni-kaze cultivar, whose name poetically translates to red wind, does justice to its name and is sought after for its color variability. While the plant is fresh green and resembles a small bamboo in the spring and summer, with the arrival of cooler autumn days, its leaves begin to turn into deep tones of red, burgundy, and bronze. This color show continues into winter, when the plant dries out, but thanks to its sturdy stems, it keeps its attractive shape even under a dusting of snow. It is a long-lived perennial that does not suffer from diseases or pests, and is an ideal choice for beginners. You just need to cut it low to the ground in the spring and it will sprout back into beauty.
