St. John's wort
St. John's wort is an inseparable part of a Czech summer, lighting up flower beds and the open countryside with its typical yellow blooms. These low-maintenance perennials and semi-shrubs handle sunny and drier spots perfectly, though some varieties thrive in the shade as well. They are a great choice for anyone looking for hardy plants that require minimal care and watering. Besides traditional varieties, you will also find specially bred cultivars popular in floristry. For them, it only starts with the flowers. After blooming, slightly pointed colorful berries appear on the branches; while not edible, they serve a fantastic decorative purpose. They hold firmly on the plant and stand out perfectly in autumn arrangements or cut bouquets, adding an interesting structure. Moreover, the bushes often bloom again right after the first batch of berries ripens.
