Xerochrysum bracteatum
Unique flowers perfect for drier, poorer soils. Makes an excellent, everlasting cut flower which can keep its color for years. Papery flowers dry down on the living plants. Triangular folded petals resemble an origami creation. This is a mix of all colors, from apricot, to maroon, to yellow and white.
