Perennials, Bulbs, and Seeds Collection
Fragrant Rose Companions
The collection of fragrant perennials is a selection that works well as a companion to large-flowered, shrub, or even climbing roses. However, you can easily use it on its own. It provides a romantic, delicate atmosphere and we can imagine it in a sunny front garden by a country house as well as in modern garden designs. The perennials in this collection have the same requirements as roses – a full dose of sun, nutrient-rich yet well-drained soil, and the possibility of watering during the warm season. The colors and shapes of the flowers are selected so that they leave the roses plenty of room on stage, but still function well without them. That is why airy umbels and the ethereal foliage of Fennel meet the austere and upright spikes of Agastache. The tiny flowers of Nepeta pre-bloom the summer Phlox and serve as a shape contrast. Blue Nepeta creates contrast, while pink creates harmony. And the color palette of Phlox is even richer; we can choose our favorite or coordinate with the rose blooms. The silvery-gray leaves of Artemisia provide a neutral base and elegance to the bed. And the combination with Clematis? That is a classic in the world of roses. This species naturally creates ground cover or can lean on a structure, fence, or the branches of roses and shrubs. A flood of fragrant flowers is certain in both cases. The last perennial is Saponaria, which we mention last because the fragrance of its flowers stands out beautifully in the evening after a hot day. For Phlox lovers, we have a tip for their annual variety. It is good to pre-grow them; they will appreciate the same conditions as most of the perennials in this collection, i.e., plenty of sun and regular watering.
When planning, count on an average of six to seven perennials per m², though it always depends on the soil quality in your garden and your intentions. In nutrient-rich and sufficiently moist soil, perennials will grow faster, and the distances between them can be larger at first; in poorer conditions, it is better to plant more densely. The time you can dedicate to garden maintenance will also be a deciding factor.
Our collection allows you to work creatively and adapt it to your needs and your garden. You can easily adjust plant counts and appropriate species or cultivar substitutions in your cart. For example, if you already grow some of the perennials from this collection and just need to supplement your flowerbed, you can keep only your chosen perennials in the cart. Conversely, when shopping in autumn, you can take advantage of available bulbs and order the complete collection including spring bulbs and Allium, which will ensure your garden has plenty of flowers in both spring and summer.

Nepeta racemosa
Catmint Walker’s Low
Catmints are ideal companions for roses, suitable for naturalistic gardens, and lower species also for boxes and pots. Some of them are an irresistible attraction for cats, caused by the hallucinogen nepetalactone. This should be present in the highest amount in the species Nepeta cataria. Conversely, lemon-scented catmints reportedly do not attract cats. The botanical name Nepeta likely comes from the name of the ancient Etruscan city Nepet - Nepi in the territory of today's Italian province of Viterbo, where the plant was once cultivated. Nepeta racemosa naturally grows on dry meadows and rocky, stony slopes from the Caucasus to Central Asia. It has aromatic grey-green leaves and forms a tufted semi-spherical bush. Walker’s Low got its name after an Irish estate where it was bred in 1970. It has the most intense blue-violet flower coloration.

Narcissus
Daffodil Precocious
The Precocious narcissus will reliably brighten up your garden in the spring with its elegant and original color combination. Its simple, pure white petals create a perfect contrast with the deep salmon-colored ruffled center. The flowers appear during April and May on sturdy stems that grow to a height of about forty to forty-five centimeters. The entire plant looks very polished and brings fresh dynamics to the waking spring garden. Moreover, these early flowers serve as a welcome attraction for the first bees and other pollinators. In the garden, this narcissus works well in more formal flower beds as well as in naturalistic plantings. It looks excellent alongside early-blooming perennials or smaller bulbs, where its striking centers nicely break up the uniform greenery. At the same time, it is an excellent choice for lovers of cut flowers. Thanks to its strong stems, which do not break and do not need support, it stays fresh in a vase for a surprisingly long time. You will receive top-quality bulbs of the largest available size from us. In our opinion, it is simply a reliable piece for every flower bed.

Allium nigrum
Black Allium
Allium nigrum comes from Southern Europe, making it a perennial highly resistant to summer drought. Despite its name, it blooms from May to July with hemispherical flower heads eight to ten centimeters wide. They are composed of tiny creamy-white florets with prominent green ovaries. It reaches a height of sixty to eighty centimeters, and its stems stand out in flower beds alongside summer flowers and shorter grasses. You will receive a bulb ready for autumn planting. The flowers serve as a reliable magnet for bees and butterflies. The entire plant has a pleasant scent and its parts are edible, so you can also use them to garnish dishes. The sturdy stems stay fresh for a long time in a vase and are suitable for bouquets. The flower heads can also be easily dried for dried arrangements. During the summer, the leaves naturally die back underground, so it is ideal to plant this Allium near perennials that will subsequently cover this empty space.

Agastache rugosa
Agastache
Agastache rugosa comes from regions of China and Japan, where it naturally grows in sunny and warm locations. Its strikingly toothed green leaves might resemble a nettle at first glance, but they definitely don't sting. On the contrary, when crushed, they reward you with a pleasant mint-anise scent. From the supplied mature potted seedling, after transplanting, a stable and robust perennial reaching a height of around one meter will quickly grow. It thrives best in full sun in well-drained, loamy, or sandy soil. Caring for it is very undemanding, it does not suffer from diseases or pests, and it handles our winters and frosts without any problems. From July to September, it creates rich purple inflorescences that persistently attract bees and butterflies. An added bonus is that these flowers are edible. The plant fits perfectly into perennial beds, where it forms a beautiful vertical element. If you like making bouquets, you will definitely use the purple flowers for cutting. They stay fresh in a vase for approximately seven days and are interesting even after blooming. They also find their use when dried for winter decorations because they perfectly maintain their shape.

Phlox paniculata
Phlox Sternhimmel
Phlox, known as 'plamenka' in Czech, is originally a native perennial from the moister meadows and forest edges of North America. It soon achieved great popularity in European gardens and has been systematically bred since the nineteenth century. It is a classic garden perennial that brings a romantic mood and abundant floods of flowers to summer beds. The approximately one meter tall straight stems are adorned with deep green leaves and bear dense inflorescences on top from July to August. The Sternhimmel variety stands out with elegant small flowers with delicate color transitions in light purple and white. At the same time, the whole plant smells very pleasantly, which acts as a reliable magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies from the wide surroundings.
Although phlox is very easy to grow and even complete beginners can manage the care, it pays to pay attention to the correct choice of location. We send customers already mature seedlings in a pot, which you can easily transplant directly into the garden. Here, phlox thrives best in a sunny to semi-shady location with loamy, humous, and well-drained soil. It is ideal to keep a spacing of about fifty centimeters when planting so that each clump has enough space to grow. They like plenty of moisture, and stable humidity is important to them. During severe drought, they can react sensitively and be more susceptible to powdery mildew, so they will welcome more abundant watering in the hot summer. Fortunately, you don't have to worry about pests; they avoid it. As for winter, you can throw your worries behind you, because the plant can handle severe frosts down to minus thirty-four degrees.
In ornamental beds, phlox stands out both individually in larger groups and in combination with other summer perennials or shorter ornamental grasses. Furthermore, it is an absolutely ideal plant for cutting into vases. It will lend your home not only beautiful pastel colors but also its unmistakable sweet scent. We recommend harvesting stems for bouquets when approximately half of the flowers in the main inflorescence are already fully open. If you provide them with clean water, they will reward you with extraordinary durability and will easily last ten days in a vase.

Clematis heracleifolia
Clematis Mrs R. Brydon
Clematis 'Mrs R. Brydon' is an unusual and very resilient perennial that brings softness and color to the garden just as summer transitions into autumn. The original species comes from the shrubby and forest edges of East Asia, which is why a location in the sun or partial shade suits it well here too. It will thrive in loamy and humus-rich soil with regular watering. An interesting feature of this clematis is its variable growth. If you provide it with support in the form of a fence or trellis, it will willingly climb up to a height of two and a half meters. However, if you leave it to grow freely without support, it grows like a carpet and forms a dense shrub. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you can simply transplant straight into the garden. Care is easy, it doesn't suffer from diseases or pests, and even beginners can easily manage it. During August and September, it gets covered in an abundance of flowers in a gorgeous lavender-blue shade, which react to the ambient temperature and can interestingly fade or darken. The flowers reliably attract bees and are suitable for cutting into bouquets. When handling, remember that the plant is poisonous.

This species brings interesting structure to the garden. You will receive high-quality bulbs from us that will reliably bloom after planting. In beds, it thrives in the sun in well-drained soil, where it perfectly complements perennials. The stems are ideal for cutting into bouquets, where they stay fresh for a long time.

Saponaria officinalis
Soapwort Rosea Plena
Soapwort is an exceptionally hardy and undemanding perennial that will bring a flood of flowers and a delicate sweet scent to the garden. The original wild species grows in sunny and semi-shaded places with loamy or sandy soil, where it forms rich stands and easily survives even very severe frosts. While the wild form can spread too aggressively in flowerbeds, the cultivated double-flowered variants are much more considerate to other plants and stay in their place. From June to September, it reliably attracts bees and butterflies. In the garden, it perfectly complements mixed perennial beds, where it requires no special care or support. It is excellently suited for cutting into summer bouquets. We recommend harvesting the stems when about a third of the flowers are open; then they will stay beautiful in your vase for a full seven days. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you simply transplant into the bed. The 'Rosea Plena' cultivar will enchant you with its double flowers in a gorgeous light pink shade and a record-long blooming period.

Foeniculum vulgare
Common fennel
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.

Allium stipitatum
Allium stipitatum Mont Blanc
A large-flowered, white-blooming ornamental allium with a flower head diameter of about 12 centimeters. It blooms slightly later than similar purple-flowering species. It has sturdy stems, yet a location protected from the wind is better for it. Its leaves are fresh green in spring but begin to yellow during flowering. Therefore, we plant it in mixed beds with lush perennials.

Allium
Allium Cameleon
Allium 'Cameleon' is a charming bulbous plant that lives up to its name, creating a subtle color transformation in the flower bed. While its small inflorescences are initially a deeper old-rose shade, they slowly fade over time to pure white with light pink veining. The flowers on their sturdy stems look very delicate in the garden and stand out best in mixed steppe flower beds or rock gardens, where they create harmony with lower-growing ornamental grasses. Alliums are generally a great draw for insects, and both bees and butterflies seek out their flowers with preference. If you enjoy creating your own bouquets, you will certainly appreciate using Allium in floristry. The inflorescences look wonderful in early summer arrangements and will bring you joy in a vase for up to fourteen days.
