General information about Pampas Grass (Cortaderia):
Pampas Grass (Cortaderia) is a clump forming, usually tall ornamental grass for in an open spot in the full sun in good soil. Pampas Grass has beautiful tall flower plumes and grey-green foliage with rough sharp edges. The first few years after planting it is advised to cover Pampas Grass with straw in winter, as it is not yet fully hardy. Also too much water in winter can be deadly. A good practice is to tie all the foliage up into a sheaf before the winter. This will divert excess water away from the heart of the plant and also protect against frost. Do not cut back the leaves till spring time. To give Pampas Grass a good start, it is recommended to plant Pampas Grass before the summer. Pampas Grass is beautiful as a specimen or in a grass-garden, surrounded by less tall ornamental grasses.

Helianthus orgyalis - Willow-Leaved Sunflower

Botanical name       : Helianthus orgyalis 
Common name          : Willow-Leaved Sunflower, Narrow-Leaved Sunflower, Sunflower 

Colour               : Yellow, leaves narrow 
Flowering time       : August - October 
Full grown height    : ± 250 cm

Moisture requirement : Normal 
Winter hardiness     : Till -35°C  (USDA Zone 4) 
Spacing              : ± 90 cm (± 1,2 per m²) 
Details              : Insect friendly, At the nursery, all Helianthus plants are close together and have little ventilation. As a result, they often get mildew in late summer and autumn. This is quite normal for this species and not harmful. You can just plant them in the garden. Because they are then further apart, the chance of mildew in subsequent years is much smaller. 

Pot size             : Square 9 cm, volume 0,5 Liter

General information about Sunflower (Helianthus):
Sunflower (Helianthus) is best known as an annual cut flower but there are luckily also a lot of perennials. It is this last group of hardy plants we offer you in our assortment. The flowers of these species are not as large as those annuals, but you get more than one per plants. They are also goon in the vase. Sunflower is a strong growing, tall and bushy plant which requires plenty of space. Sunflower likes a spot in the sun in well-draining, good and fertile soil. It is good to add some fresh compost annually. Sunflower looks good in a country or natural garden where it will also attract lots of butterflies. For those gardeners who do not like bright yellows, there are also cultivars in cream. Combine Sunflower with tall Asters (Aster), Culver's Root (Veronicastrum), Maiden Grass (Miscanthus) and Plume Poppy (Macleaya).

General information about Hop (Humulus):
Hop (Humulus) is a strong, fast growing climber, which is still also found in the wild. Only the female plants will produce the distinctive 'Hops', used in brewing beer. There are varieties of Hop specially selected for this purpose but others, which are better suited for the garden, grow less vigorous and have nice yellow/green foliage in spring. Most varieties of Hop need a fair bit of space. A woodland area is ideal, when planted in half shade in a humus rich soil. Add some fertiliser every spring. If Hop produces lots of new shoots in spring you can use these in some nice recipes. Hop is not really suited to grow in a pot as they want to root deeply. Plant Hop carefully and give them time to establish.

General information about Maiden Grass (Miscanthus):
Maiden Grass (Miscanthus) is one of the most well-known ornamental grasses. They are clump forming, reasonably fast-growing plants which often also display nice autumn colours. The height of Maiden Grass varies from knee-height to over 2 meters. Especially nice are the varieties with striped or mottled leaves. Maiden Grass can be used as a solitary plant or in groups. Maiden Grass prefers a spot in the sun in normal soil, although some shade does not harm it either. It flowers in late summer and is quite spectacular. When gone over, the flower stems still give you a nice display over winter. Some varieties of Maiden Grass will only flower after a nice warm summer. Do not cut Maiden Grass back until spring, as soon as the young shoots are visible. Maiden Grass is a very versatile grass that should be in every garden.

General information about Rosinweed (Silphium):
Rosinweed (Silphium) is a genus of very easy perennials which flower for a long time. It is an impressive plant to be planted in the back of the border. Even in winter, Rosinweed adds structure as the stems stay upright. Rosinweed likes a spot in the full sun, but will also do with half shade. The soil should be normal to moist and fertile. A gift of fresh compost in spring is always appreciated. Strong neighbours for Rosinweed are Hemp Agrimony (Eupatorium), Meadow Rue (Thalictrum) and Maiden Grass (Miscanthus). Rosinweed produces a good cut flower and is loved by many insects. Watch out in spring for slugs and snails eating the fresh new shoots.
