Strawflower - Creamy White

50 Seeds

Introducing the Creamy White Strawflower Seed, a versatile choice for abundant blooms suitable for both fresh arrangements and dried displays.

These tall, well-branched plants produce double flowers spanning 2–2 1/2 inches across. Initially, the blooms present as pale lemon-yellow, with fresh buds adorned in silvery hues transitioning to a lemon tint as they mature and unfurl their delicate petals. Freshly opened flowers reveal a charming blend of creamy white and lemon shades.

As they dry, the blooms transform into a full lemon colour, offering a striking contrast to their fresh appearance. Known also as bracted strawflower, these plants promise an elegant addition to any floral project, whether fresh or dried, with their dynamic colour transitions and abundant blooms.
