Silvery-Rose Strawflowers Wildflower Seeds

Bring soft, rosy colour to your garden with Xerochrysum bracteatum ‘Silvery Rose’, a beautiful strawflower variety known for its papery pink blooms and long-lasting appeal. The delicate rose-toned flowers add a lovely touch to garden beds and borders, while their distinctive texture makes them especially appealing for cut flower arrangements. One of the best features of strawflowers is their ability to retain their colour and shape when dried, allowing you to enjoy their beauty long after the growing season. Harvest them for dried floral displays, handmade wreaths or everlasting arrangements, or leave them growing in the garden for a cheerful seasonal show. Planting Guide They benefit from regular light pruning annually to encourage branching and more flowers. Severe pruning to overcome "legginess" may be successful but only as a last resort.
