Strawflower, Apricot Peach Mix

Strawflowers are one of the best ways to have a touch of summer in your home all year round. They bloom over a long season and are excellent dried flowers for garlands, wreaths, garlic braids and more. (Best to harvest on a dry day when the outer layer of bracts have opened, but the centre is still tightly closed as they continue to open when drying).  Lovely mix of colours ranging from creamy yellow, peach, and sunset orange and red. 

 75 days to maturity, approx. 250 seeds per 0.25g
