Gorgeous strawflower with single, apricot colored flower that show variations in color tones from strawberry to rose to peach. All blooms have a foundational golden undertone.
Papery and straw-like blooms of strawflower attract pollinators. If cut flowers are kept in a dry place, they can stay robust and colorful for years to come. Enjoy them on the plant or cut when fresh 12″ below the blooms and let them dry upside down.
