Strawflower, Tall Double Mix

Tall strawflowers produce papery, everlasting flowers in vibrant reds, pinks, yellows, and whites on long stems perfect for cutting. These flowers dry perfectly with zero color fade—they'll look fresh for years in dried arrangements.

Strawflower: These everlasting annual flowers (Xerochrysum bracteatum), commonly known as Strawflowers, are nature's immortal blooms, essential for dried arrangements as their papery bracts retain vibrant colors—hot pinks, oranges, yellows, and reds—for literally years. These low-effort plants bloom continuously from midsummer until frost, producing dozens of flowers per plant without requiring any deadheading.

• Growing Tips: Transplant after the last frost, spacing 9–12 inches apart; plants are heat-thriving once established.

• Sun Requirements: Full sun (6–8 hours minimum).

• Preferred Soil: Well-drained, average soil; tolerates poor soil and drought once established.

• Harvest Details: Cut flowers when half to fully open, before the center opens completely; air-dry inverted in bunches; dried flowers hold color for years; continuous flowering from midsummer to frost.
