Best Mix Strawflower Seeds

What a dilemma -- these Paper Daisies are so gorgeous in bloom that you may want to let them dazzle the summer garden, yet if you cut them in bud they make fabulous dried arrangements that last for months! Luckily, the problem is solved by these floriferous 2-foot plants, which generously give you enough blooms for garden, vase, and Everlasting use!

Fully 2 inches across and jammed with thin, strawlike petals just drenched with color, these blooms begin in early summer and keep coming until fall on vigorous 2-foot plants. Appearing above the gray-green foliage, they are held upright on strong stems. And the colors! Salmon, apricot, pink, rose, magenta, white, and cream -- all with merry yellow centers -- give you enough variety to supply cool- or warm-toned bouquets.

To dry as Everlastings, cut the flowers before they are fully open, remove any foliage, and hang the branch upside-down in a dry, well-ventilated location. Pkt is 100 seeds.
