Strawflower

The Strawflower is a beautiful annual flower variety with double-petaled flowers in warm colors ranging from yellow to orange and pink, with green foliage. These flowers are perfect along the edge of a border, and because they do not wilt, they are ideal for creating dried bouquets. The plant has a long-lasting bloom throughout the summer and is also an excellent honey plant. Keep in mind that the Strawflower is not hardy. The height can reach up to 40 cm.

Cultivation Tips for Strawflower:

• Sowing Instructions: Sow seeds at 20°C in March-April. Plant once in pots under glass, then transplant the young plants to the garden after the last frost, spacing them 20 cm apart. Alternatively, sow directly in the garden in May-June.

• Blooming and Drying Tips: To dry the flowers, pick them at the beginning of blooming. Dry them in the shade and air, hanging them upside down.

• Location and Soil: The Strawflower prefers a sunny location and well-draining soil. This promotes plant health and ensures optimal blooming.

This flower is a great addition to your garden not only for its beauty but also for its long bloom and its ability to dry well for use in bouquets.
