Amaranthus caudatus

Amaranth Mira

An Amaranth novelty. Usually, you encounter solid colors with amaranths, so 'Mira' is a pleasant refreshment. The color is not solid; it shifts between green, antique pink, and burgundy. A great and delicate combination! Amaranth is an unbeatable filler for bouquets. Simple to grow, fast-growing, and adding beautiful structure whether to a garden bed or a bouquet. Show full description

Daucus carota

Pure splendor! We don't have nicer photos for this year because every year we cut the ornamental carrot down to the last stem and there is simply no time left for photos. Thin, strong stems and umbel inflorescences resembling dill at their ends. There are thousands of tiny flowers on each stem creating a veil or lace effect. It is a mixture of colors, where some flowers are pure white, but the majority are chocolate to burgundy with a touch of white.

Zinnia elegans

The best-selling cut Zinnia ever! But the main thing is the color! Antique wine fading into antique pink. The Queen Lime series is our favorite Zinnia; it's love at first sight! The flowers are large, up to 10 cm, surrounded by many petals, giving a double-flowered appearance. Moving towards the center, the petals get smaller and end up unopened at the center, creating a frosted cupcake effect. No other Zinnia compares!

Bupleurum rotundifolium

Our favorite foliage and filler. It grows beautifully and binds famously! The flowers are yellowish, so they don't color-match every bouquet, but we still never have enough of it! And after flowering, tiny seed pods form which are also beautifully decorative and don't wilt; we love collecting those too.

Gorgeous! It is on our list of top Zinnias. The petals are 'crumpled' and bent inwards, giving a wild impression. The color is antique pink; some fade to a nude tone. If you arrange wedding flowers, you know this is a trendy color and a Zinnia you simply must have!

Ammi visnaga

Ammi likes low temperatures, so it is purely a spring and autumn beauty. It adds a fresh and airy effect to all bouquets, and the same applies to the flower bed. The flowers are composed of individual tiny florets resembling lace, which is why we use it instead of baby's breath. 'Casablanca' is a larger Ammi; the plants are taller and more robust, the stems stronger, and it doesn't fade as quickly. Still, we recommend sowing more than once.

Eryngium planum

An evergreen favorite at the flower market! Sea Holly is a perennial; it lasts for several years in the flowerbed and spreads beautifully. The "flowers" and leaves are slightly prickly; it does look like a miniature thistle after all. The stems and tops are silvery blue. And mature, bloomed Sea Holly doesn't wilt, making it great for drying, wreaths, and similar uses. For drying, harvest when the thistles are colored blue and the stem below the thistle is firm. Just hang them upside down in a dry, ventilated place, out of sunlight.

Helichrysum bracteatum

This piece has been with us for a long time. Light pink combined with creamy white. Each flower has a different distribution and combination of these two colors. The Strawflower is a classic from grandma's garden but also an evergreen of dried flowers. We love using them when arranging for weddings because they don't wilt. They are suitable for corsages, wreaths, and boutonnieres. For drying, we harvest flowers that are not yet fully open, when the yellow center cannot be seen yet. At the same time, we check the stem below the flower; it should already be firm, not "rubbery". Just hang them upside down in a dry and ventilated place, out of direct sunlight.

Delphinium consolida

Larkspurs are spring beauties that are unmatched. But if you want to harvest them for cut flowers, you must be vigilant and harvest quickly before all buds open. Especially in the warm springs of recent years, they bloom quickly, so we sow several batches 14 days apart just to keep up with the harvest. Larkspur QIS White is a delicate white, fitting beautifully into wedding floristry. From one plant you will harvest one thicker stem and 4-5 smaller side ones.

Just when we thought there couldn't be more beauty, along came Cherry Bronze. Orange leaning into raspberry, one of the most beautiful color shades on the farm ever. We are always looking for interesting varieties and colors. And Snapdragon Madame Butterfly is our darling! The flowers are double-flowered and that takes the whole Snapdragon to a new level! Stems aren't as massive and long as, for example, the Potomac and Maryland series, but they make up for it with their doubleness. We use them in bouquets, where they create beautifully large volume. One plant produces one larger and 4 smaller side stems.

And speaking of Dahlias, the color resembles the Café au lait shade. Compared to the color-similar King Size Apricot China aster, the flowers are a bit larger and fluffier. One plant produces 11-15 flowers.

Cultivation

Pro předpěstování vysejte nejdříve 5 až 6 týdnů před posledními mrazy. Potřebuje světlo ke klíčení, proto zasypejte jen tenkou vrstvou substrátu, aby nedocházelo k vysychání.

Ze začátku je nutné zalévat pouze spodem, kdy vložíte sadbovač do misky s vodou a necháte vodu vzlínat. Zalitím svrchu spláchnete všechna vysetá semínka.

Jakmile budou sazeničky větší, snižte teplotu na 17-18°C a přesazujte ven až po posledních mrazech.

Přímý výsev je také možný, laskavec potřebuje vyšší teploty ke klíčení, proto počkejte až na květen. Zasypáváme jen tenkou vrstvou, semena potřebují světlo ke klíčení.

Doporučujeme oporu.
