"Flowers look like giant, purple astilbe blooms with cranberry edging and are a long-standing favorite for dried flower crafts. This variety blooms over a long period of time and adds movement and texture to fresh arrangements. It’s a must-grow for wreath making and drying." -Floret "Plants have mostly basal leaves, which makes the stems easy to locate for cutting, and there are almost no leaves to strip away. Low-growing plants produced 2–3 flushes of harvestable stems in our trials. Excellent for dried flowers or fresh cuts. Flowers dry beautifully, holding their color well. Early statice." ~Johnny's Seeds I have grown this variety and plan to grow it again! The photo is from Ballseed, which is where I purchased my most recent batch of seeds, and which has 98% germination rate!
