QIS Deep Rose statice is a rich, rosy-purple stunner that holds its colour beautifully—fresh or dried.

This premium statice variety is a favourite with flower farmers and home gardeners alike, thanks to its uniform plants, strong stems, and saturated deep rose blooms. The papery flowers add instant texture to garden beds and are absolute workhorses for bouquets, wreaths, and dried arrangements. Even after cutting and drying, the colour stays vibrant, making this a dependable choice for everlasting flowers that truly last.

In the garden, QIS Deep Rose forms tidy, upright plants that bloom generously through summer. It thrives in sunny, well-drained spots and doesn’t ask for much once established—perfect for gardeners who love reliable results without fuss. Pollinators appreciate the blooms, while deer tend to leave statice alone, which is always a win.
