Warm wishes for wonderful, joyous winter holidays!

A short preview for the month of May 2025 comes together with a big THANK YOU to all our customers and blog readers for another good season!
We are very grateful for your continued support and inspiration!

The month of May is our “season of ten thousand flowers” and it was filled with too many treasures to count them all: Primulas, spring vetches (Lathyrus vernus) species Peonies, Epimediums, Trilliums…plus the flowering in the small rockery. Few Irises had an excellent flowering in 2025, reason why they are top featured in our greeting card-review.

May 2025: Iris lacustris, Iris tectorum ‘Album’, Iris ruthenica, Glaucidium palmatum ‘Album’, Primula x polyantha ‘Violet Victorians’, Epimedium ‘Raspberry Truffles’, Gentiana clausa, degenia velebitica, Corydalis turtschaninovii

It is good to keep photo and written garden records; looking back we can notice the progress over the years, what species were short lived and how the new ones are performing. In any case, by growing plants from seeds it will never be a shortage of flowers in your garden!
