Grown as a cut flower for winter bouquets. Thrives in full sun and hot weather. The showy part of the flower is actually the bracts. Strawflowers should be cut before the center opens, stripped of their foliage and hung upside down in a cool; place to dry. Insert wire into back of flower head. The flower will dry in a few days and will hold to the wire. Culture: Sow seed indoors 4–6 weeks before planting time. Plant seed on top of growing medium. Keep warm and moist. Or, sow outdoors after all danger of frost has past in full sun location.
