An old fashioned favourite in a beautiful colour palette of peach and apricot. Strawflowers are productive and easy to grow.  Excellent in the mixed garden border and a long lasting cut flower. Can be used fresh or dried.

Plant type: annual  

Height: 36-42”

Planting depth: surface sow

Exposure: full sun

Plant spacing: 9-12” 

Approx seeds per packet: 50

How to sow: 

Sow seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost. Surface sow as light is required for germination. Harden off seedlings and transplant outdoors after last frost. Pinching is not necessary.

Care:

Strawflowers are low maintenance and will tolerate heat and drought. For died flowers, harvest when blooms are half way open and hang upside down until firm. 75-85 days to maturity.
