Leucanthemum vulgare
Daisy white
Daisy is an absolute classic that is an essential part of any proper country garden and simply belongs to summer. It originally comes from the sun-drenched meadows and light forest edges of Europe, where it grows as a reliable and long-lived perennial. It is from these natural habitats that it inherited its immense lack of demand and adaptability. It thrives best in full sun in standard, well-draining garden soil. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot, which you only need to transplant directly into the flower bed, where it will root very quickly and soon form a lush clump. White flowers with a yellow center can beautifully brighten up mixed plantings and act as a great magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. It is an invaluable and classic perennial for early summer bouquets. We recommend harvesting flowers for a vase when they have firm and smooth central discs. They will then stay fresh in a vase for seven to ten days. After the first flowering, it is worth trimming the plant slightly, which will easily encourage the formation of new buds.

Cultivation
Daisies love full sun and well-drained, humus-rich soil. Since you will receive a reliably rooted and mature seedling from us, you can plant it directly into a prepared flowerbed. The soil should not be too heavy, stony, or clay-like, as plants suffer in such inhospitable conditions and may be unnecessarily short-lived. It is absolutely essential to avoid areas with winter waterlogging, to which these perennials are extremely sensitive. When planting, remember to leave sufficient space between individual seedlings. A larger spacing ensures that air can flow freely between the plants, which acts as the best natural prevention against fungal diseases. During the main growing season, keep the bed slightly moist, but definitely do not overwater. Although daisies tolerate short periods of drought relatively well, they will form much richer clumps and set more buds in evenly moist soil. Fertilizing does not need to be overdone; adding a little well-matured compost to the plant in early spring is perfectly sufficient. Pruning completely right after the first flowering will significantly support the overall vitality of the seedling and reliably ensure repeat blooming in the later stages of summer. After about three to four years, it is highly recommended to carefully dig up, divide, and replant the clumps in a new location. With this simple task, you will beautifully rejuvenate the plant, prevent it from exhaustion, and significantly extend its overall lifespan in the garden. In early spring, pay increased attention to freshly sprouting young shoots, which slugs unfortunately love to snack on. They pose the greatest risk to the daisy; otherwise, this plant is very healthy and does not suffer from any other specific pests or diseases. It is a fully hardy perennial, so it does not require any special protection or covering for the winter. If you do not have your own garden, you can safely grow our seedling in a larger container or a spacious planter on a sunny balcony or terrace. In this case, however, ensure that the chosen pot has a high-quality drainage layer of gravel or expanded clay at the bottom. This will reliably prevent root rot. When growing in containers, also remember to water slightly more frequently than in open ground.
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.

Zinnia Cresto Peachy Pink
Zinnia 'Cresto Peachy Pink' brings a refreshing palette of colors full of cool tones to summer flower beds. Growing this charming annual from seeds is ideal even for complete beginners.

The plants grow to a height of sixty to ninety centimeters, and occasional pinching will benefit them with richer branching. In the garden, they form beautiful combinations with delicate ornamental grasses or other annuals in similar tones. Zinnia also acts as a reliable magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. Long, sturdy stems, which sometimes benefit from light support, make this flower the perfect material for cutting.

Saponaria vaccaria
Vaccaria Pink Beauty
Saponaria vaccaria, or cow soapwort 'Pink Beauty', is a reliable annual that brings a romantic and airy element to summer flower beds. It easily makes up for its unconventional name with a rich profusion of tiny, pastel-pink flowers that bring a sense of lightness to the garden. These appear on sturdy stems sixty to ninety centimeters tall during the summer months, from June to September. The delicate flowers not only look beautiful and soften the surrounding plantings, but they also act as a magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which will naturally enliven your garden. For healthy growth, cow soapwort appreciates a bright location, but it can grow in light shade without any problems.
It looks very elegant in the garden, and thanks to its structure—reminiscent of baby's breath—it combines perfectly with more robust types of flowers, for which it makes a delicate background. You can confidently cut three to four richly branched stems from each plant. They will bring great joy even if you simply place them in small vases in your living room. Cow soapwort grows and blooms very quickly from seeds, which in practice means that it also fades a bit faster. If you want to enjoy its delicate pink flowers in the bed and in the vase for as long as possible, it is worth sowing the seeds in stages. You can perform direct sowing from February to May in several consecutive phases. Even complete beginners can thus have fresh cut flowers available throughout the season.

Cornflower Tall Double Black Boy
It is hard to imagine anything more rustic. The 'Tall Double Black Boy' variety is a much fuller-flowered Cornflower than the one we commonly see along roadsides and hedgerows.

It grows to a height of sixty to eighty centimeters, so it appreciates support in the flower bed to prevent its thin stems from breaking.

The flowers appear in the summer months from June to August and become a huge attraction for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies.

In the garden, it is an excellent addition to mixed borders. If you enjoy creating bouquets, 'Rosetta' will thrill you as a cut flower.

Larkspur QIS White
Larkspur are spring beauties that have no equal. If you want to grow them for cut flowers, you must be vigilant and harvest quickly before all the buds open. Especially in the warm springs of recent years, they bloom quickly, so we recommend sowing several batches exactly 14 days apart. The QIS White larkspur flowers have a pure white color, which makes them great for weddings as well. You will harvest one thicker stem and 4-5 smaller side stems from one plant. It is one of the varieties that is also perfect for drying! Simply hang it 'head down' in a dry, shaded, and well-ventilated place. This allows it to keep its beautiful color even after drying.
