Know before you buy
You can do both. These strawflowers are easy to grow and suitable for direct sowing in the garden once the soil has warmed, though starting them indoors a few weeks before your last frost can give you a head start on the season.
To dry them, cut the stems when the flowers are just beginning to open. Hang them upside down in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area until they are completely crisp to the touch.
While they are well-branched and sturdy, they can benefit from support in areas with high winds or heavy rain. If your garden is exposed, a simple garden stake or a light hoop support will help keep the tall stems upright.
These flowers thrive in well-draining soil with a neutral pH between 6.0 and 7.0. They are not particularly fussy, but they do perform best when the soil is kept consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Yes, as an annual, they are prolific bloomers. Regularly harvesting the flowers for bouquets or deadheading spent blooms will encourage the plant to continue producing new stems and flowers until the first frost.
