Transition Farms: Strawflower 'Apricot Peach Mix'

Xerochrysum bracteatum

Soft yellow to apricot to peach to raspberry strawflowers - with layers of paper petals that move through the hue from light to dark - on each flower - Apricot Peach Mix is a stunning everlasting

• Easy to grow.

• Prolific bloomers

• Colour variation in each bloom from light to dark in the same hue

• Plants are tall and well branched.

• Loved by pollinators.

They are a great addition to cut flower arrangements with a long vase life and a colour that changes as they age. They mix with brights AND pastels adding interest late spring - autumn.

Unusual, multi petalled, papery blooms with tight pointy light to dark peachy buds which gradually open to reveal a soft yellow to raspberry papery petal combination around a brighter yellow centre.

Plants are tall and well branched.

Equally attractive fresh in bouquets or mixed into dried flower arrangements as the colour lasts. If you are cutting for drying, ensure the blooms are cut as buds and hung upside down until the stem dries. Keep harvesting for continuous blooms. Does self seed in some climates.

Attractive to pollinators.
