Profuse bloomers for fresh or dried arrangements.
Tall, well-branched plants produce double flowers 1 1/2–2″ across. Blooms are slightly smaller, and plants are a few days later to bloom than the other colors in the King Size series. The creamy coral-and-raspberry color is worth the wait. Also known as bracted strawflower.

| HARVEST | Keep blooms harvested or deadheaded for optimal yields. Fresh or dried: Cut when 2-3 layers of petals have unfolded but before flowers fully open to reveal center. Note: Blooms that are very open, past optimal maturity, will close in the dark of night and on dark, overcast days. These blooms can appear as if they are at the at a good stage for cutting, though they are overmature. To avoid these misleading blooms, harvest on bright mornings or let your harvested blooms set in light for a few hours. Overmature blooms should open back up for identification and discard. Avoiding overmature blooms is especially important if being used for drying as blooms continue to open during the drying process. When dried, overmature blooms will shatter (fall apart) and appear discolored. |
