Helenium Rubinzwerg

Sneezeweed Rubinzwerg will bring the warm tones of Indian summer to your late summer beds and the unique atmosphere of the North American prairies, where this species originally comes from. Sneezeweeds grow wildly in moist meadows, so in the garden, too, they will appreciate humous soil that doesn't dry out and a spot in full sun. The garden cultivar Rubinzwerg is valued for its more compact height and especially the rich ruby to burgundy color of its flowers, which have the protruding center typical for sneezeweeds and slightly drooping petals resembling a skirt. In perennial plantings, it looks very dynamic and perfectly complements ornamental grasses or other sun-loving perennials blooming in autumn. The flowers are a magnet for bees and other pollinators, who find food on them at a time when many other plants are already fading. Moreover, the sturdy stems predestine this sneezeweed for cutting into a vase, where it will last and show off for quite a long time. The plant is fully frost-resistant and long-lived, just keep in mind that it is slightly poisonous and should not be consumed. Show full description

Helenium Dunkle Pracht, Loukykvět
New

Helenium

Sneezeweed Dunkle Pracht will bring the rich and warm colors of late summer to your flowerbeds. These robust perennials have their origins in the moist meadows and light forests of North America, where they naturally seek out sunny habitats with plenty of moisture. In the garden, therefore, they do best in humous and well-drained soil that should not dry out completely in the summer months. Thanks to its height exceeding one meter, it is perfectly suited for the background of perennial borders or as a prominent feature in country and prairie gardens. The flowers are also a strong magnet for bees and other pollinators, who visit them abundantly during the summer. The Dunkle Pracht cultivar, which translates to "Dark Magnificence", fully lives up to its name thanks to intense wine-red flowers with a protruding dark center. The plant is undemanding and suitable even for beginner growers and is fully frost-resistant down to very low temperatures. It blooms persistently from July to September, thereby beautifully bridging the period when summer perennials fade and autumn asters are just waking up. Sturdy stems make sneezeweed an excellent flower for cutting into vases. Although the plant is not edible and is poisonous, its ornamental value and contribution to the garden ecosystem are irreplaceable.

Solidaster Lemore, Loukykvět

Solidaster hybride

Solidaster 'Lemore' is a unique perennial that originated from an interesting cross between goldenrods and asters. Its parent species come from sunny meadows, which is why it will do best in your garden in full sun in well-drained, sandy, or loamy soil. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant straight into the flower bed. Here, it will soon form clumps about seventy centimeters high, which do not need support and easily survive severe frosts. Solidaster does not suffer from diseases or pests, making cultivation easy even for beginners. From July to September, flowers appear that make the 'Lemore' variety very attractive. They bloom in a bright yellow color and gradually change through cream to milky white. The florets are slightly larger than those of goldenrod, attract bees and butterflies, and are even surprisingly edible. The plant is perfectly suited for cutting into summer arrangements; it will last beautifully in a vase for a full ten days.

Giant scabious, Loukykvět

Cephalaria gigantea

Giant scabious is an imposing solitary perennial that will bring a striking vertical structure and natural wild charm to the garden. It comes from the mountain meadows of the Caucasus, which dictates its growing requirements. From the delivered seedling, a highly noticeable plant with a massive, sparsely branched growth will quickly grow in full sun or partial shade and humus-rich loamy soil. Given its dimensions, we recommend planting one piece per square meter. It commonly reaches a height of up to two and a half meters, yet it needs no support at all. From June to August, it forms scabiosa-like flowers in pastel yellow to lime colors on long stems. This creates a very effective contrast between the relatively massive bulk of green leaves and the airy, wiry stems with small flower heads. It resists frosts down to minus thirty-four degrees without any problems, does not suffer from diseases or pests, and easily self-seeds. It is a highly attractive lure for bees and other pollinators. The unusual flowers are perfectly suited for cutting; they last about five days in a vase. The faded inflorescences are also interesting, useful for drying and floristry purposes. If you leave them in the flower bed, they will provide a beautiful winter effect.

Helenium Kupferzwerg, Loukykvět
New

Helenium

Sneezeweed Kupferzwerg is a true jewel for lovers of fiery colors and naturalistic gardens. Its name, which can be loosely translated as copper dwarf, refers to the deep red to copper color of its petals, which can change into softer tones as blooming progresses. This North American prairie perennial loves full sun and humous, sufficiently moist soil. If you provide it with the right conditions, it will reward you with a flood of flowers from mid-summer until early autumn. In flowerbeds, it looks breathtaking in combination with ornamental grasses or other late-blooming perennials. For beginner gardeners, this sneezeweed is a great choice thanks to its low maintenance and full frost resistance down to very low temperatures. It is a long-lived plant that will last for many years in one spot. The flowers are suitable for cutting into colorful summer bouquets but are not directly intended for drying. Remember spring protection against slugs, which can damage young shoots, and keep in mind that the plant is slightly poisonous. Planting spacing of 40 to 50 cm is recommended so that individual clumps have enough space for their development.

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.

Helenium Septembergold, Loukykvět
New

Helenium

Sneezeweed Septembergold will reliably brighten up any garden when summer slowly hands over its scepter to autumn. The original species of this long-lived perennial come from the moister meadow growths and forest edges of North America. For successful cultivation, therefore, it will appreciate a sunny spot with well-drained, loamy, and highly humous soil that retains adequate moisture. It is an exceptionally frost-resistant plant that effortlessly endures even harsh winters, so you don't have to worry about it even in colder regions. The massive clumps with dark green leaves grow up to around one meter tall and do not need any support. From July to September, floods of flowers open on sturdy stems. The Septembergold variety stands out with a magnificent golden-yellow shade that brings a warm atmosphere to the beds. These flowers are literally a magnet for bees, bumblebees, and other pollinators. Although the plant does not suffer from diseases, watch out for slugs and snails in the spring when sprouting, as they might feast on the young shoots. Please note that the entire plant is poisonous and not intended for consumption. In the garden, sneezeweed applies perfectly in mixed perennial beds combined with ornamental grasses or autumn asters. Ideally plant three to four pieces per square meter with spacings of forty to fifty centimeters so they soon form a dense canopy. It is also excellent for cutting into summer and autumn bouquets. It will stay fresh in a vase for a long time and bring a piece of solar energy right into your home. It is not suitable for drying for floral purposes.

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.

Gaura, Loukykvět

Gaura lindheimeri

Gaura is a charming clump-forming perennial whose original homeland is the sunny plains of Texas and Louisiana. In the garden, it will appreciate exactly the conditions it is used to from nature, meaning full sun and well-drained, even poorer and sandy soil. A sturdy clump that grows to a height of around eighty centimeters will grow from the seedling you receive. It belongs among the very undemanding plants for beginners, which are completely avoided by diseases and pests. Although it behaves more like a short-lived perennial here, it willingly self-seeds in a suitable location. The tiny little flowers colored in pure white and light pink shades resemble small butterflies and bloom tirelessly from June all the way to October. It adds extraordinary lightness and airiness to flower beds, making it combine beautifully with ornamental grasses. During its long months of blooming, gaura is constantly surrounded by bees, for which it represents a rich food source. The flowers are perfectly suited for cutting into summer bouquets. We harvest the stems for vases as soon as the first two to three little flowers open on the stem. On the contrary, the plant is not suitable for drying.

Phlox Sweet Summer Compact Rose Dark Eye, Loukykvět

Phlox paniculata

Phlox, also known as garden phlox, is originally a native perennial to North America. It quickly achieved great popularity in European gardens and has been systematically bred since the 19th century. It is a classic perennial that many remember from our grandmothers' gardens, but it also has its place in modern plantings. It loves the sun or light partial shade and requires nutritious, humous, and moist soil to fully show off its beauty. If you provide it with enough moisture, it will reward you with a flood of flowers during July and August. This plant is a classic perennial for cutting into bouquets, where, in addition to its colorful flowers, it also delights with a delicate fragrance. We harvest it once about half of the flowers in the inflorescence have bloomed; it will then last up to 10 days in a vase. The 'Compact Rose Dark Eye' cultivar belongs to the healthy and vigorous 'Sweet Summer' series, which is bred for higher disease resistance and a compact growth habit. It grows to a height of only about 50 to 70 centimeters, making it suitable even for smaller flower beds.

Cornflower Tall Double Blue Boy, Loukykvět

Centaurea cyanus

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.

Lesser calamint Blue Cloud is an undemanding and modest perennial that reliably perfumes any sunny garden.

Throughout late summer and into autumn, it blooms with a record number of tiny blue flowers that are so typical of the Blue Cloud variety.

It will look great among roses or in naturally designed steppe flowerbeds, where it naturally complements lower ornamental grasses. Additionally, both the blue flowers and green leaves are edible, so you can use them to garnish summer dishes.

Phlox White Clouds, Loukykvět

Phlox amplifolia

Phlox White Clouds lives up to its name and looks like fluffy white clouds in the garden. It is a native North American species, Phlox amplifolia, which differs from better-known phloxes by its wider leaves and, above all, greater hardiness. It naturalized in European gardens as early as the 19th century and has enjoyed great popularity ever since. It is an ideal perennial for beginners because it tolerates drier soil well and does not suffer as much from fungal diseases. In the garden, it grows to a height of about one meter, making it a perfect fit for the background of perennial beds, where it forms a striking focal point in summer. Its fragrant flowers are literally a magnet for bees and other beneficial insects. Phloxes are also a traditional part of country bouquets. For the longest vase life, which is around 10 days, we recommend cutting the stems when approximately half of the flowers are in bloom. We ideally plant the seedlings in loamy, humus-rich soil in full sun or partial shade.

Cultivation

Záplevák 'Rubinzwerg' je vděčná trvalka, která do zahrady vnese ohnivé barvy, ale aby vám dělala radost dlouhá léta, je třeba respektovat její nároky na vláhu.  Zápleváku se nebude dařit na suchých, písčitých místech bez zálivky. Vyberte pro ni stanoviště na plném slunci, kde bude mít k dispozici živnou, humózní a především nevysychavou půdu. Pokud máte na zahradě těžší jílovitou půdu, vylehčete ji kompostem, aby byla propustná, ale stále držela vlhkost. Nedostatek vody se projeví vadnutím a zasycháním listů odspodu, což rostlině ubírá na kráse. 
Při výsadbě zakoupených sazenic dodržujte doporučený spon 40–50 cm. Rostliny se časem rozrostou do šířky a vytvoří husté trsy, které plevelům nedají šanci. 'Rubinzwerg' je ceněný pro svou stabilitu, takže se nemusíte bát, že by se po prvním dešti povalil, opora většinou není nutná. Květy se objevují od července až do září a jejich sytě vínová barva s typickým vypouklým středem láká včely a další opylovače. Pokud chcete kvetení co nejvíce prodloužit, nenechávejte rostlinu vysilovat tvorbou semen a odkvetlé květy průběžně odstřihávejte. Díky tomu bude záplevák neustále nasazovat na nová poupata a zdobit záhon až do příchodu prvních mrazíků.
Zdravotní stav zápleváku je obecně vynikající, netrpí na padlí ani jiné běžné choroby trvalek. Jediným významným nepřítelem jsou slimáci, kteří dokáží na jaře zlikvidovat čerstvě rašící výhonky. Zejména u mladých výsadeb kontrolujte okolí rostlin a používejte mechanické zábrany nebo ekologické přípravky proti plžům. Rostlina obsahuje látky, které jsou mírně jedovaté, což ji sice chrání před okusem zvěří, ale vy byste na to měli pamatovat, pokud se na zahradě pohybují malé děti. Rostlina není určena ke konzumaci. Teprve v předjaří odstraňte celou nadzemní část řezem těsně nad zemí.
Pěstování v nádobách je u tohoto kultivaru možné a díky jeho výšce kolem jednoho metru vytvoří v kontejneru dominantní prvek terasy či balkonu. Pro úspěch je však nutné použít velkou nádobu (min. 10–15 litrů), na dno dát drenážní vrstvu štěrku a použít kvalitní substrát pro balkonové rostliny, který dobře drží vodu. V nádobě je rostlina zcela závislá na vaší péči – nesmí přeschnout! V zimě je kořenový bal v květináči náchylnější na promrznutí než ve volné půdě, i když je rostlina v zemi plně mrazuvzdorná. Proto květináč na zimu obalte jutou nebo polystyrenem a postavte ho na chráněné místo.

Helenium Helena Red Shades, Loukykvět
