Cow soapwort

Cowsoapwort might surprise you with its unconventional name, but it will win you over in the flowerbed immediately. This tender annual creates clouds of tiny flowers and its airy appearance strongly resembles the popular baby's breath. Its delicacy complements more striking flowers beautifully, making it a perfect addition to summer bouquets. Cowsoapwort grows reliably and sets flowers early. However, because it blooms relatively quickly, we recommend sowing in several stages a few weeks apart. This will give you fresh stems for cutting over a much longer period. You can sow the seeds directly into the bed; if you're unsure about the process, our guide on direct sowing will help you. Simply divide the picked stems into smaller jars to decorate your windowsill or table.

Vaccaria Pink Beauty, Loukykvět

Saponaria vaccaria

Saponaria vaccaria, or cow soapwort 'Pink Beauty', is a reliable annual that brings a romantic and airy element to summer flower beds. It easily makes up for its unconventional name with a rich profusion of tiny, pastel-pink flowers that bring a sense of lightness to the garden. These appear on sturdy stems sixty to ninety centimeters tall during the summer months, from June to September. The delicate flowers not only look beautiful and soften the surrounding plantings, but they also act as a magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which will naturally enliven your garden. For healthy growth, cow soapwort appreciates a bright location, but it can grow in light shade without any problems. It looks very elegant in the garden, and thanks to its structure—reminiscent of baby's breath—it combines perfectly with more robust types of flowers, for which it makes a delicate background. You can confidently cut three to four richly branched stems from each plant. They will bring great joy even if you simply place them in small vases in your living room. Cow soapwort grows and blooms very quickly from seeds, which in practice means that it also fades a bit faster. If you want to enjoy its delicate pink flowers in the bed and in the vase for as long as possible, it is worth sowing the seeds in stages. You can perform direct sowing from February to May in several consecutive phases. Even complete beginners can thus have fresh cut flowers available throughout the season.
