A low growing soft-wooded perennial with dark green leaves and everlasting flowers that attract butterflies. Great rockery, border or pot plant. Good heat tolerant plant, performs best in full sun but will tolerate light shade. Do best with moist soil, as dry soil conditions will reduce the flowering. To preserve the flowers for dried arrangements, pick while in bud. They can keep their colour and last for years.
