Perennial Collection with Bulbs and Seeds

Nostalgic Cottage Collection

This collection presents a shapely, diverse foundation for creating a perennial bed with the atmosphere of a countryside holiday. It is suitable for a sunny spot with good soil and, at the start, the option for watering. Over time, these tried-and-tested, resilient perennials will manage even without your daily presence. A colorful base is formed by 'Summer Pastels' yarrow. If you have a favorite color, you can choose from our other cultivars. And then we have something of every color: Pink mallow for repeat flowering; blue, pink, or white sage of your choice. The vertical highlights are undoubtedly provided by hollyhock, fennel, and sweet pea, each in its own way. Sweet pea will appreciate support to climb on; you can choose white, pink, or a mix. Fennel with its airy umbels will serve as a gentle background for lower species and can easily be replaced by dill, for instance. Tall hollyhocks are a classic in country gardens. They are usually classified as biennials or short-lived perennials. If you prefer longevity, reach for those with simple flowers from the 'Spotlight' series, and if you are a lover of double flowers, you will surely forgive your favorites their impermanence. And daisies? A summer classic you simply cannot do without. Feverfew and foxglove round out the entire collection. You can pre-grow them from seeds or occasionally buy them directly at our nursery. For a spring effect, it is great to supplement this collection with daffodils and tulips. And if you desire an even more diverse selection of species, combine this package with our 'Fragrant Collection for Roses' or add aromatic herbs for utility. When planning, count on an average of six to seven perennials per m², depending on the soil quality in your garden and your intentions. In nutritious and sufficiently moist soil, perennials will grow faster and the distances between them can be larger to start with; in poorer conditions, it will be better to plant them more densely. The time you can dedicate to bed maintenance will also be a deciding factor. With our collection, you can work creatively and adapt it to your needs and your garden. In the basket, you can easily adjust plant counts and choose appropriate species and cultivar substitutes. For example, if you are already growing some of the perennials in this collection and only need to supplement your bed, you can keep only the selected species in your basket. Conversely, when shopping in autumn, you can take advantage of available bulbs and order the complete collection, including spring bulbs and alliums, which will ensure your bed has plenty of flowers in both spring and summer. Show full description

Yarrow Summer Pastels, Loukykvět

Achillea millefolium

An original wild perennial with a large distribution area from Europe to Siberia. Suitable for natural and wild plantings. It grows in meadows and dry grassy places. A very adaptable and undemanding plant, it grows in clumps and spreads by runners. By cutting back after the first flowering, we encourage a set of new flowers. For bouquets, we harvest when the florets are fully open. It lasts 10 days in a vase. Summer Pastels is characterized by a changeable and soft range of colors from white and vanilla to salmon, brick red, and bronze.

Daffodil Shrike, Loukykvět
Fragrant
Special offer

Narcissus

The Shrike narcissus draws attention from a distance with its unusual flowers, which combine pure white with warm shades of orange. The flowers gradually transition to a richer apricot color, and as the bloom ages, the color fades into softer apricot tones. The central petals are distinctly wavy and ruffled. Occasionally, they even reach the very edge of the flower or playfully alternate with the white petals, creating a rich and fluffy appearance. The plant reaches a height of about forty centimeters and will brighten up any spring flower bed during April and May. Its pleasant scent reliably attracts the first spring bees and other pollinators. In the garden, this narcissus stands out both in large groups and in combination with other spring bulbs or lower perennials. The bulb you receive will grow into a healthy plant that does not need support and is resistant to common diseases. Thanks to their sturdy stems, the flowers are absolutely ideal for cutting into spring bouquets, where their unusual shape and fragrance will bring much joy.

Feverfew Campagne, Loukykvět

Tanacetum parthenium

Single feverfew, a classic among cut flowers. Centers are yellow, petals are white. However, it differs from other single feverfews in our offer. In growth and flowers, it is sparser; one might turn their nose up at it. But! It blooms first of all; it is an early variety and that's why we love it so much!

Checkerbloom Brilliant, Loukykvět

Sidalcea

The 'Brilliant' prairie mallow is a charming short-lived perennial that resembles miniature hollyhocks with its flowers and brings a romantic touch to the summer garden. Its homeland is the sunny plains and meadows of North America, so it will also grow best in full sun in your garden. We send customers mature potted seedlings, which simply need to be transplanted into well-drained, loamy, and sufficiently humous soil. Caring for it is very easy and can be effortlessly managed even by beginners. During the summer, it needs regular watering, and the only things you need to watch out for are slugs and the possible appearance of rust on the leaves. However, the plant is highly frost-resistant and will survive the winter without problems down to minus twenty-eight degrees. From June to September, it forms tall, straight stems heavily laden with tiny flowers. These reliably act as a magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies, providing them with a rich pasture. An interesting fact is that these flowers are completely safe and even edible, so you can use them to liven up summer salads or desserts. In flowerbeds, the prairie mallow perfectly complements classic combinations with roses, but it also fits perfectly into wilder plantings in the company of ornamental grasses. It grows to a height of around one meter and does not need any support. If you like to decorate your home with fresh flowers, prairie mallow stems are great for cutting and look beautiful in summer bouquets. The 'Brilliant' cultivar stands out especially for its vibrant, richly colored flowers in shades of crimson, which you truly will not miss against the green background of the leaves.

Foxglove Pam’s Choice, Loukykvět

Digitalis purpurea

The Pam's Choice foxglove cultivar is an unmissable classic of both country and modern gardens, bringing the magic of nature into your flower beds. It is a native species to Central Europe, where it grows in forest clearings and light forest margins. Therefore, it thrives best in partial shade or full sun with slightly moist but well-drained loamy soil. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply transplant directly into your flower bed. It usually behaves as a biennial or short-lived perennial, easily handling frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees Celsius and not suffering from diseases. From a basal rosette of leaves, it sends up sturdy stems up to one hundred and twenty centimeters tall. These carry creamy white bell-shaped flowers with breathtaking dark burgundy marbling inside the throat. The flowers reliably attract bees and bumblebees. Although the entire plant is poisonous, for growers it is a completely undemanding species that is also popular for cutting. In a vase, the stems stay fresh for six to eight days. After blooming, the foxglove reliably self-seeds in a suitable location.

Mullein Wedding Candles, Loukykvět

Verbascum chaixii Album

Mullein 'Wedding Candles' is a garden cultivar of a native European perennial that naturally grows on sunny rocky slopes and will bring vertical dynamics to your garden. Thanks to its origin, it suits full sun and permeable sandy soil, where it needs almost no watering. Even a complete beginner can handle growing it because it does not suffer from diseases or pests and easily withstands frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees Celsius. You will get a mature seedling in a pot, which only needs to be transplanted into a bed, ideally at a spacing of five to seven plants per square meter. The 'Wedding Candles' cultivar grows to a height of over a meter and does not need any support. It is adorned with gray-green felted leaves and during May and June it produces striking pure white flowers that have purple fuzzy stamens. These edible flowers act as a huge magnet for bees and bumblebees. Although it is a short-lived perennial, it reliably self-seeds in a suitable location. It is suitable for mixed perennial beds, where it beautifully complements lower steppe grasses. You can use the flowers for cutting into summer bouquets, but they are not suitable for drying. If you leave the mullein in the flower bed through the winter, its silhouette will provide an interesting spectacle.

Hollyhock Chaters Rosa, Loukykvět

Alcea rosea plena

Hollyhocks are a necessity for every lover of rural atmosphere. We traditionally associate them with sunny cottage gardens, even though they came to Europe with ancient travelers along the Silk Road all the way from the steppes of Central Asia. And the taste for travel has remained with the hollyhock. It often self-seeds and you will find it in a place where you certainly didn't plant it. Naturally, it is a biennial or short-lived perennial. However, its instability is balanced by beautiful double flowers and a distinct silhouette and height. It is suitable for cutting and was also used for dyeing and as a medicinal plant. The Chater's series includes proven varieties with pompon-like double flowers.

Tree mallow Candy Floss, Loukykvět

Lavatera olbia

You will fall in love with tree mallow 'Candy Floss' for its flood of delicately pink flowers that resemble cotton candy. This originally Mediterranean plant very quickly forms a rich, almost shrub-like clump in the garden, which is literally covered in flowers during the summer. Thanks to its origin, it loves sunny and warm locations with well-drained soil, where it thrives best. Its open calyxes are an irresistible attraction for bees and bumblebees, so the flower bed will be buzzing with life. The flowers are not only beautiful to look at but also edible, so you can unconventionally decorate summer salads or desserts with them. They are also suitable for cutting into a vase, where they will keep bringing joy for several days. Although it is a perennial, it often behaves as a short-lived plant in our conditions. Its frost resistance reaches roughly -10 degrees Celsius, so we recommend planting it in protected areas and covering it with conifer branches or a thicker layer of mulch for winter to secure its beauty for the next season.

Common fennel, Loukykvět

Foeniculum vulgare

Common fennel is an imposing aromatic perennial that brings an unrepeatable veil effect into the garden. It originally hails from the Mediterranean, where it grows in sunny places. Therefore, it also prefers full sun and well-drained loamy soil here. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply transplant into the flower bed, spacing them sixty centimeters apart. It grows to over a meter tall and is cultivated for its finely divided leaves in green to bronze shades, but it does not form bulbs. In summer, yellow-green umbels appear, acting as a magnet for bees and other pollinators. The entire plant smells of anise, and both its leaves and flowers are edible. It handles severe frosts without difficulty, doesn't suffer from diseases or pests, and any beginner can manage its care. In a suitable spot, it reliably self-seeds. It pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses, the flowers last seven to ten days in a vase, and the mature umbels can be dried for winter decorations.

Sweet pea White Pearl, Loukykvět

Lathyrus latifolius

The perennial sweet pea White Pearl will bring a flood of pure white flowers to the garden and liven up any empty support. It originally comes from the light woodland edges of Southern and Central Europe, where it climbs over the surrounding vegetation. Therefore, a sunny spot or partial shade and ordinary, well-drained loamy soil suit it well. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply transplant directly into the flowerbed. It is an exceptionally resilient perennial that can handle frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees. For successful growth, it needs support to climb to a height of over two meters. Throughout the entire summer, it forms clusters of flowers similar to the annual sweet pea. Although they lack its fragrance, they reliably attract bees and butterflies. The White Pearl cultivar captivates with its pure white color, making it look very elegant. It does not suffer from pests and even beginners can handle growing it. It quickly greens up fences and trellises and its flowers perfectly complement summer bouquets, in which they stay fresh for a long time. Just remember that, like other sweet peas, it is poisonous.
