Statice 'Apricot'
The very best flower for drying! And this is one of the prettiest colours of statice in soft apricots that hold their vibrancy really well when dry. These blooms hold their shapes and colours practically forever.
Quick growing and usually fast germination. Start sowing in early spring. Benefit from warmth at around 21°C to speed up germination. They need light to germinate so barely cover with compost, or leave them uncovered and use a propagator lid to stop the surface from drying out. Make a few sowings a few weeks apart to have successional flowers. Can be direct sown once the weather and soil have warmed.
Plant Type: Half Hardy Annual
Aspect: Full Sun
Spacing: 12 inches apart
Days to Maturity: 11o-120 approx
Height: 2ft
