Perennial Collection

Red tones in the garden bed

A collection for lovers of red. An effective combination of perennials for sunny spots with good soil and the possibility of watering. Thanks to the combination of grasses, perennials, annuals, and alliums, you can create a spectacular display in the very first season. The tone-on-tone color scheme balances a selection that is rich in shape and structure, which will be effective both in the flower bed and in bouquets. Great additions are perennial grasses (millet) and annual, yet all the more effective, fountain grasses. The selection of annuals includes species suitable for direct sowing (cornflowers) as well as those for starting indoors. You will find everything about their cultivation in the detailed descriptions of each item. When planning, count on an average of six to seven perennials per m², though this always depends on the soil quality in your garden and your goals. In nutritious and sufficiently moist soil, perennials will grow faster and the distances between them can be larger to start; in poorer conditions, it is better to plant more densely. The time you can dedicate to bed maintenance will also be a deciding factor. Our collection allows you to be creative and adapt it to your needs and your garden. You can easily adjust the number of plants as well as species and cultivar substitutions in your cart. For example, if you do not want to grow annuals from seeds, you can keep only the perennials in your cart. You can choose specific species or change the cultivars. When shopping in the autumn, you can take advantage of available bulbs and order the complete collection including ornamental alliums, which will add an unusual color and shape element to your bed. Show full description

Allium sphaerocephalon, Loukykvět

Allium sphaerocephalon

The round-headed garlic draws attention with its striking flowers, which form unmistakable dark purple and burgundy dots. It is a summer-blooming variety that reaches a height of about seventy to one hundred centimeters. Its egg-shaped inflorescences, three to five centimeters in size, are densely packed and appear from June to August. Its leaves resemble chives in shape, but it is typical for summer garlic that they begin to naturally yellow and wither during the blooming period. The deep color of the flowers stands out perfectly in mixed prairie plantings alongside delicate ornamental grasses. Furthermore, the dense inflorescences act as a magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. Anyone who creates home arrangements will love this plant. The firm, long stems are excellent for cutting into fresh bouquets, and the heads retain their shape and color after drying for use in dried arrangements. The entire plant is fully edible and completely resistant to common diseases.

Cornflower Tall Double Black Boy, Loukykvět

Centaurea cyanus

You can't imagine anything more meadow-like! It is a terrible shame that it can only be grown at lower temperatures. The Tall Double series is a fuller-flowered Cornflower than the one we see along the roadsides. And Black Boy is a truly unique specimen. The color is dark burgundy to black.

Scabiosa QIS Deep Red, Loukykvět

Scabiosa atropurpurea

A novelty among Scabiosas! This piece is from the QIS series, meaning a quality, bred variety. But that's not all; the color shade is also great. It is not black like the Scabiosa Black Purple, but a red wine, burgundy shade. And just like the others, the open flowers each have a white pistil, creating a sugared effect.

Knautia Red Knight, Loukykvět

Knautia macedonica

Macedonian scabious is an abundantly and long-blooming, undemanding perennial that will bring the untamed charm of summer meadows to the garden. Its wild form originates from the sun-drenched Balkans, where it naturally grows on sunny hillsides and in warm thickets. You will receive from us a mature seedling in a pot, which just needs to be transplanted into well-drained loamy or sandy soil in the sun or partial shade. Here it will quickly take root and form a vigorous clump. The Red Knight cultivar enchants with slender stems up to ninety centimeters tall, which all summer from June to September carry a flood of dark burgundy to deep wine-red flowers. These edible flowers act as a huge attraction for bees, bumblebees, and other insects. The plant is an ideal choice for beginners because it reliably resists frosts down to minus twenty-eight degrees and does not suffer from any pests or diseases. Although it belongs to short-lived perennials, in a suitable place it gladly self-seeds. It will fit perfectly into naturalistically designed plantings with ornamental grasses and is popularly used in sweeping meadow bouquets. We recommend cutting the flowers fully open; they will then stay beautifully fresh in a vase for several days.

Purple Allium, Loukykvět

Allium atropurpureum

Purple garlic, Latin name Allium atropurpureum, originally traveled to us from the sunny regions of the Balkans. At first glance, it captures attention with its exceptionally dark, deep burgundy color, which acts as a perfect contrast in the garden to lighter perennials and ornamental grasses. During May and June, striking semi-spherical inflorescences composed of tiny star-shaped flowers bloom on sturdy stems reaching sixty to ninety centimeters in height. They look beautiful, emit a pleasant fragrance, and attract bees, bumblebees, and other pollinators from afar. After flowering, the plant gradually goes dormant in the ground, so it is ideal to combine it with species that will subtly fill its space over the summer. The flowers also stand out in summer bouquets, where they remain fresh for many days. You can also dry them or leave them in the bed through the winter, as their snow-covered silhouettes create a magical sight. Additionally, the flowers are edible and make a great garnish for dishes.

Rudbeckia Cherry Brandy, Loukykvět

Rudbeckia hirta

These beauties love heat, which is why we associate them mainly with late summer and early autumn. Scalding helps with vase life: dip freshly cut stems into 90°C water for 3 minutes and then immediately into cold water. One plant produces at least 5 stems. Cherry Brandy is a beautiful shade of dark wine.

Lobelia Queen Victoria, Loukykvět

Lobelia fulgens

Lobelia Queen Victoria is an unmissable perennial for lovers of vibrant colors and striking contrasts. Its original homeland is the moister regions of North and Central America, so in your garden as well, it will appreciate more abundant watering and humous, well-drained loamy soil. If you provide it with a sunny to semi-shady location, it will reward you with radiant carmine-red flowers from August to October. These create a perfect spectacle in combination with dark burgundy to bronze leaves and sturdy stems that reach a height of just under one meter. You will receive a beautifully grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant directly into the flowerbed. Here it perfectly complements plants with similar moisture requirements. The flowers act as a reliable magnet for bees and other pollinators, and you can also cut them for a vase, where they will liven up your interior. Growing this short-lived perennial requires a little more attention, especially when it comes to protection from slugs, which like to feast on it. Before winter, it is also good to keep in mind that its frost resistance reaches minus fifteen degrees, and to provide it with suitable protection. Also remember that all parts of the lobelia are poisonous, so it is advisable to consider the planting location with regard to pets.

Talinum Jewels of Opar, Loukykvět

Talinum paniculatum

Talinum latnaté, známé pod názvem Jewels of Opar, vnáší do zahrad i kytic lehkost a hravost. Tato nenáročná letnička tvoří přízemní růžici svěže zelených listů, ze kterých od června vyrůstají tenké, šedesát až devadesát centimetrů dlouhé stonky. Na jejich vrcholcích se otevírají obláčky drobných kvítků v zářivých odstínech karmínové, korálové a růžové. Přitahují pozornost včel a motýlů, zatímco samotná rostlina je navíc zcela jedlá. V záhonu působí jemně a vyplní místa mezi výraznějšími trvalkami. Jako výplňová zeleň vynikne i ve váze. Řezat můžete kvetoucí stonky nebo počkat na drobné lesklé semeníky, které lze snadno usušit. Semena talina zvládnou vypěstovat i začátečníci. Vyséváme je od dubna do června na slunné či polostinné stanoviště s propustnou půdou. Na povrchu je nezasypáváme, ke klíčení potřebují světlo. Netrpí na škůdce a na konci léta se ochotně sama přesévají.

Allium amethystinum

Kultivar Allium amethystinum známý jako Red Mohican přináší do záhonů neokoukané vínové barvy a hravé tvary. Tvoří vysoké a pevné stonky, na kterých začátkem léta rozkvétají tmavě červená květenství s jemnou vůní. Od nás obdržíte kvalitní cibuli připravenou k usazení do půdy, nečeká vás tak žádné zdlouhavé pěstování ze semínek. Rostlina dorůstá zhruba do jednoho metru a díky své pevné stavbě bez potíží stojí i bez opory. Skvěle zapadne do smíšených venkovských výsadeb, kde funguje jako výrazný svislý prvek. Zelené listy s příchodem léta přirozeně zatahují, proto je dobré česnek kombinovat s rostlinami, které prázdné místo rychle vyplní. Voňavé květy jsou velkým lákadlem pro včely i čmeláky a jako příjemný bonus jsou plně jedlé. Jde o mimořádně odolnou rostlinu, která hravě zvládne i drsnější mrazy. Vínové hlávky vypadají nádherně ve váze a dají se s úspěchem sušit pro tvorbu trvanlivých aranžmá. Neostříhané květy navíc zdobí zahradu svými siluetami dlouho do zimy.

Persicaria Lisan, Loukykvět

Persicaria amplexicaulis

Persicaria 'Lisan' is an indispensable perennial for anyone who wants to have a blooming garden even in the second half of summer and in autumn. This type of persicaria has its origins in the mountainous regions of the Himalayas, where it naturally inhabits moister meadows and forest edges. As a result, the plant is very hardy and vigorous even in the garden, loves nutritious, humous soils that retain moisture, and thrives in both sun and partial shade. In plantings, it is valued for its ability to quickly close the canopy and suppress weeds, while not suffering from diseases or pests. Its dense clumps of fresh green leaves form a perfect undergrowth under taller shrubs or trees and bring dynamics to the beds even when other summer perennials are already fading. The 'Lisan' cultivar stands out for its striking, crimson-red inflorescences in the shape of narrow spikes, which tower above the leaves from July until the first frosts in October. Compared to some other persicarias, it grows to a more compact height of between 50 and 75 centimeters and does not require support, as its stems are firm and upright. These candle-like flowers look very impressive in perennial plantings and are literally a magnet for bees and other pollinators. Persicaria 'Lisan' is also excellent for cutting into a vase, where its rich color and interesting structure will last for several days and perfectly complement autumn arrangements.

Red Valerian Pretty Betsy Red, Loukykvět

Centranthus ruber

The crimson red flowers of valerian will brighten up any sunny garden and reliably attract plenty of pollinators. This airy perennial has its origins in the Mediterranean region, where it decorates warm, sunny slopes and dry places. Thanks to this, it is completely undemanding, and in your garden, it will do best in full sun with well-drained, sandy, or loamy soil. The striking red shade of the 'Pretty Betsy Red' variety is complemented by gray-green leaves. Valerian holds one amazing record, as it offers the longest blooming period of all perennials. From early summer until early autumn, it constantly adorns itself with tiny edible florets clustered in convex panicles. Even complete beginners can easily manage its care. Pests and diseases avoid the plant, and it easily handles severe frosts. Even though it grows as a short-lived plant, it willingly self-seeds. In compositions, it looks excellent next to delicate grasses. Its blooming stems are a great attraction for bees and butterflies, and hummingbird hawk-moths often feast on them as well. Valerian flowers perfectly liven up summer bouquets. For the vase, cut the stems just before they unfurl or when freshly opened; they will last about a week at home.
