Therefore, permanent cultivation in a pot or container is recommended in this country. As soon as temperatures drop in autumn, the shrub is best moved to a bright, cool winter quarter (approx. 5 to 10 degrees Celsius). During this dormant phase, it usually loses its leaves, which is why watering is reduced to an absolute minimum and fertilizing is stopped completely until the plant sprouts again in spring.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pflanzenwelten Andre Heinek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56233586065793,"sku":null,"price":2.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/6332\/3777\/files\/Calliandra_eriophylla6.jpg?v=1788808190"},{"product_id":"salvia-coccinea-samen-scharlachroter-salbei-dauerblueher","title":"Scarlet Sage (Salvia coccinea) - Seeds - Fiery temperament for your flower bed","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"markdown markdown-main-panel md-content enable-luminous-fast-follows enable-updated-hr-color stronger\" id=\"model-response-message-contentr_871d1c7366d64139\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eA tireless, continuous bloomer that instantly brings an exotic flair to your balcony or garden with its fiery presence: Salvia coccinea originates from the warmer regions of North and South America.

It winds its way up independently and necessarily requires a climbing frame, trellis, taut strings, or a fence for support. The ideal location is full sun, warm, and ideally protected from the wind. Well-drained, normal garden soil is perfectly sufficient. Over-fertilized or extremely nitrogen-rich soils lead to strong leaf growth, which comes at the expense of flower formation. Since the plant is cultivated as an annual in Central Europe, it is not frost-hardy in the fall. When grown in pots, excellent drainage should be ensured by using structural additives such as sand, pumice, or perlite to prevent waterlogging.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eUsage and ornamental value:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eIn addition to its role as a floral highlight, this climbing plant is ideal as a natural, fast-growing privacy screen for balconies and seating areas. Within a few weeks, bare fences, pergolas, or trellises can be transformed into a dense, green canopy of leaves. Alternatively, hanging cultivation in large hanging baskets is also possible, where the shoots fall picturesquely over the edge of the container. From mid-summer until early autumn, it produces its striking, fuzzy, hairy inflorescences, from which new azure funnel flowers open daily. Ecologically, Jacquemontia offers great benefits in the garden: the countless, continuously appearing flowers provide an extremely attractive and reliable source of nectar for bees, bumblebees, hoverflies, and butterflies for months.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eJacquemontia tamnifolia\u003c\/i\u003e originates from the tropical and subtropical regions of the American continent, where its range extends from the southeastern United States through Central America to northern South America.

Damit er sich optimal entwickelt, benötigt er zwingend einen warmen, vollsonnigen Platz. Der Boden sollte durchlässig, eher mager, kalkhaltig und trocken sein, denn Staunässe verträgt er absolut nicht. Als genügsamer Schwachzehrer benötigt er in der Regel keine zusätzliche Düngung. Um ein unschönes Verholzen von unten zu verhindern und die kompakte, dichte Form zu erhalten, empfehle ich einen regelmäßigen Rückschnitt: einmal im zeitigen Frühjahr (etwa um ein Drittel bis die Hälfte einkürzen, aber nicht ins alte Holz schneiden) und ein leichter Korrekturschnitt direkt nach der Blüte im Hochsommer.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eErnte und Nutzung:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eDie intensiv duftenden Blütenstände ernte ich am besten an einem warmen, trockenen Vormittag, kurz bevor sich die kleinen Blüten vollständig geöffnet haben.

Kulinarisch lässt sich Lavendel sparsam dosiert äußerst vielseitig einsetzen, etwa für feine Kräutermischungen, mediterrane Fleischgerichte, aromatisierte Desserts oder entspannende Tees.
