Description
Xerochrysum bracteatum
Superb dried flower!!
Strawflowers have petals that resemble the texture of straw when mature and hold their color and texture even when dry. A mix of different colors (pink, yellow, and white) makes for grand crafts and dried flowers. This flower is also slightly frost-tolerant, so it continues to bloom into fall! Pollinators love them! Plant next to your tomatoes for a bumper crop.
