Flowering Plant


Everlasting Daisy Purple Red — also known as a paper daisy or strawflower (Helichrysum/Xerochrysum group) — is prized for its striking, papery bract flowers that hold vibrant color even when dried. These flowers add eye-catching contrast in garden borders, rockeries, and pollinator beds and are equally popular for cut and dried floral designs. They thrive in sunny positions with well-drained soil and are relatively easy to grow.
