Fireball Strawflower

In true strawflower fashion, these are very late to flower—but they’re worth the wait.

Absolutely stunning blooms with dark orange petals and bright yellow centers that live up to their fiery name. Excellent for bouquets and ideal for drying, as the flowers retain their vibrant color. Plants are tall, upright, and non-branching, with sparse foliage.
