Easy and fast growing from Helichrysum seed, Strawflower, is a hardy perennial native to Australia. In most areas of the United States, however, it is grown as a summer annual. The 36 - 40 inch tall plants have 5 inch long lance-shaped leaves and double blooms often over 2 1/2 inches across. Flowers of this species are great as cut flowers and when they are dried, the papery flowers will last indefinitely. The plants are easy to grow from flower seed and make excellent container plants. Helichrysum Bracteatum Rose plants are easy to establish from flower seed, and they are a valuable addition to the flower garden, giving a wonderful show of color. They prefer full sun to partial shade (especially in warmer climates).

 For early blooms, sow Helichrysum seeds indoors 6 - 8 weeks before planting time. Strawflower seeds can also be directly sown outdoors once frost season has passed and temperatures are consistently warm.
