Description
Moluccella laevis
This unique, green flower is an eye-catcher in the garden!
What a delightful weirdo of a plant! Stalks festooned with lime green, bell-shaped bracts reach 2-3’ tall with tiny, fragrant white flowers hiding in their bases. They’re a striking conversation both in the garden and in fresh/dried bouquets. They represent luck, according to the language of flowers!

Directions: Direct seed in fall through early spring with 4” spacing. Gently press seeds on top of soil, as seeds require light to germinate. Watch for seedlings in late winter and early spring. Transplant seedlings to 12” spacing once they have their true leaves in mid to late spring.
