Collection of perennials and bulbs

For a Sunny Balcony

A selection of the most resilient yet delicate and refined species for hot spots in full sun. They are forgiving if you occasionally delay watering, but they make uncompromising demands for plenty of sunshine. Due to their delicate nature, they are perfectly suited for container gardening. You can plant several pieces or species together in containers, or use your favorites as unique focal points in individual pots or window boxes. Do not skimp on container sizes; only in sufficiently spacious pots can you ensure balanced and stable conditions for the plants. Also, don't forget a drainage layer. Our tips for growing individual species in pots can be found in the detailed information for each specific perennial. However, container gardening is not a requirement, and you can plant our selection in a standard garden bed and combine it with our other collections. When planning such a bed, 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 are already growing some of the perennials in this collection and only need to supplement your collection, you can keep only the chosen species in your cart. Conversely, when shopping in the autumn, you can take advantage of available bulbs and order the complete collection including ornamental bulbs and alliums, which will provide your bed with structural and color variability. Show full description

Allium neapolitanum, Loukykvět
Special offer

Allium neapolitanum

Allium neapolitanum traveled to us from the sunny Mediterranean, where it grows naturally in dry steppe communities. In spring, during May and June, it produces thirty to fifty-centimeter-tall upright stems that bear delicate, star-shaped, pure white flowers. The entire plant also has a pleasant fragrance and acts as a reliable lure for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, to whom it offers valuable food at the beginning of the season. We always select and send our customers the largest available bulbs, from which strong and healthy plants will easily grow. In gardens, this garlic looks absolutely great in combination with drought-tolerant grasses and various herbs, where its pure white flowers stand out beautifully. Fans of cut flowers will also fall in love with the plant, as it will stay fresh in a vase for a good two weeks. Given that both the leaves and flowers are edible, it can also be used to garnish spring dishes. During the summer, it naturally retreats into the ground to rest and gather strength for the following spring.

Meadowsweet, Loukykvět

Filipendula vulgaris

Dropwort is our native drought-tolerant perennial that, thanks to its tuberously thickened roots, easily copes with even very dry locations. In nature, you will find it on sunlit slopes and dry meadows, making it an ideal choice for gravel beds or natural-style gardens where you don't have to worry too much about watering. It forms basal rosettes of finely divided, fern-like leaves, from which stems carrying rich inflorescences emerge in June and July. Floristically valuable are its fragrant milky white to creamy inflorescences, which attract a large number of bees and other insects. The flowers have a pleasant scent and stay fresh in a vase for about a week. The buds themselves are already highly decorative, looking like tiny pearls before blooming, and they also put on a great show after flowering when they turn into small stars. The plant is fully frost-hardy and absolutely undemanding to grow.

German Garlic, Loukykvět
Special offer

Allium senescens

Allium senescens (mountain garlic) is an undemanding yet highly valuable addition to any garden. With its leaves emerging early in the spring, it effectively fills empty spaces in flower beds. It is exceptional for its late flowering and ability to keep its leaves green from spring until late winter. In July and August, it delights with light purple flowers. It finds its place in rock gardens and containers. Although its stems are shorter, its flowers are excellent for cutting.

Scabiosa Pink Mist, Loukykvět
New

Scabiosa columbaria

Pincushion flower 'Pink Mist' brings lightness and delicate beauty to the garden. The original species grows on dry and sunny meadows or rocky slopes, so it will also appreciate full sun and well-drained loamy soil at your place. Compared to the Caucasian pincushion flowers, it is smaller, growing only to thirty to forty centimeters. However, it stands out with its endurance, as it blooms almost continuously from June to October, especially when you continuously remove the faded inflorescences. The light pink to lilac flowers are eagerly visited by bees and butterflies. In a flower bed, it looks great alongside shorter grasses and other sun-loving perennials. It is a short-lived plant, which, however, readily self-seeds in the right place. The flowers on sturdy stems are excellent for cutting into fresh summer bouquets, but they are not very suitable for drying. The petals are also edible, and you can use them to decorate desserts, for example. You will receive a strong seedling in a pot from us, which you simply need to transplant to a permanent location, where it will easily handle even stronger frosts.

Wood Calamint Menthe, Loukykvět

Calamintha sylvatica

Calamint 'Menthe' is an undemanding perennial that reliably perfumes any sunny garden. Its original homeland is bright deciduous forests and bushy hillsides, which is why it thrives best here in direct sun in well-drained or poorer loamy soil. It handles winter without problems and tolerates severe frosts. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant into a bed, where it will soon form a compact bush up to forty centimeters. It does not suffer from diseases or pests, so even beginners can easily manage its care. Until autumn, it blooms with a multitude of tiny white flowers with a pleasant minty-spicy scent that attract bees and butterflies. It looks good among roses as well as in natural-style steppe beds with lower grasses. It is also fully edible; the flowers and green leaves will beautifully decorate summer dishes. It is perfectly suited for cutting into smaller fresh bouquets, to which it adds a delicate structure in the vase.

Rock rose Sulphureum Plenum, Loukykvět

Helianthemum hybrida

Rock rose Sulphureum Plenum is literally a sun lover that will brighten up any rockery or dry wall. The original species of these low subshrubs are found on sunny and rocky hillsides, which is why even in the garden they require well-drained, poorer, and rather sandy soil where water does not sit. From May to July, the plant is covered with a flood of tiny double flowers in a pastel yellow shade, resembling miniature roses in shape. Thanks to its low and creeping growth, it is perfectly suited for edging flower beds or filling joints between stones. A great advantage is the winter effect, where the plant retains its fresh green foliage, so the flower bed does not remain empty even under the snow. To help this rock rose maintain its compact and dense shape, we recommend trimming it after flowering. It is fully frost-hardy and attracts a large number of pollinators.

Feather grass Pony Tails, Loukykvět

Stipa tenuissima

Feather grass flowers capture attention in beds and bouquets with their lightness and delicacy. All feather grasses love full sun and dry, stony, well-drained soil. To look most natural in beds, it is good to plant them in loose groups of several pieces together with other drought-loving perennials and bulbs. Only then do their stems and inflorescences, set in motion by the slightest breath of wind, truly stand out. Stipa 'Ponny Tails' is a species native to the steppes of Mexico, Texas, and Patagonia. Airy, dense clumps of hair-like delicate leaves resemble horsehair. The leaves are green, turning up to straw-colored towards the flowers. In a suitable location, it also self-seeds.

Fleabane Blütenmeer, Loukykvět
Special offer

Erigeron karvinskianus

Fleabane 'Blütenmeer' is an ethereal, short-lived perennial that traveled to us all the way from Mexico and brings unbridled lightness to European gardens. It looks like a flood of tiny daisies that gradually change color from pure white to soft pink, so you will see a diverse palette of shades on a single plant at the same time. It is perfectly suited for growing on sunny rockeries, in dry stone walls, or even in pots, where it forms richly blooming cushions. Although it is a short-lived plant, it often maintains itself by self-seeding in well-drained soil, so you will enjoy its beauty in the garden repeatedly. Moreover, the flowers tirelessly attract bees and other pollinators from the beginning of summer until the first frosts. You can also harvest them into small vases, where their tender little flowers will complement the atmosphere of your home.

Allium Baltimore, Loukykvět
New

Allium oreophilum

Allium 'Baltimore' is an unmissable perennial that brings radiant colors to the garden. During May and June, it produces striking inflorescences in an intense cyclamen-pink shade. The plant grows to a modest height of fifteen to twenty-five centimeters, making it an ideal choice for edging sunny flower beds or enlivening rock gardens. Deep green leaves and aromatic flowers attract bees and other useful pollinators, so your garden will soon be full of life. You will receive high-quality bulbs from us that will reliably grow and bloom after being planted in well-drained soil. This species goes very well with shorter drought-tolerant grasses and early-blooming perennials. In addition to its ornamental function in the flower bed, it offers other uses as well. The flowers are edible and serve as a wonderful, unconventional decoration for dishes. If you like making bouquets, you can cut the stems for a vase, where they will stay fresh for a long time. At the same time, the inflorescences can be easily dried and used in long-lasting dried arrangements, where they retain their shape.

Gaura, Loukykvět

Gaura lindheimeri

Gaura is a charming clump-forming perennial whose original homeland is the sunny plains of Texas and Louisiana. In the garden, it will appreciate exactly the conditions it is used to from nature, meaning full sun and well-drained, even poorer and sandy soil. A sturdy clump that grows to a height of around eighty centimeters will grow from the seedling you receive. It belongs among the very undemanding plants for beginners, which are completely avoided by diseases and pests. Although it behaves more like a short-lived perennial here, it willingly self-seeds in a suitable location. The tiny little flowers colored in pure white and light pink shades resemble small butterflies and bloom tirelessly from June all the way to October. It adds extraordinary lightness and airiness to flower beds, making it combine beautifully with ornamental grasses. During its long months of blooming, gaura is constantly surrounded by bees, for which it represents a rich food source. The flowers are perfectly suited for cutting into summer bouquets. We harvest the stems for vases as soon as the first two to three little flowers open on the stem. On the contrary, the plant is not suitable for drying.
