Strawflower Seeds

The strawflower (Xerochrysum bracteatum) is a stunning and long-lasting bloom, perfect for gardeners looking to add vibrant colours that last well beyond the summer season. As one of the most popular everlasting flowers, it is ideal for fresh arrangements as well as dried bouquets.

Easy to grow, strawflowers thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Start seeds indoors in March–April for earlier blooms or sow directly when the soil is warm. The more you cut, the more it flowers – making it perfect for non-stop harvesting all season long.

What makes strawflower special is its ability to retain both colour and shape when dried. Simply hang them upside down in a dry, dark place, and you’ll have beautiful blooms to enjoy year-round.

Available in a variety of shades like yellow, orange, white, pink and red, strawflower also attracts bees and butterflies – making it a wonderful choice for both garden beauty and biodiversity.
