Statice is a drought tolerant, tender perennial which is normally considered to be an annual plant. An outstanding variety for fresh or dried cut flower. A re-selected series of large, inflorescent blooms, uniform in height and strong stemmed. 75-90cm (30-36")

Germination Instructions
Seed sown directly in the garden after all frost danger has passed. or sow Statice seeds indoors in early Spring.
Limonium seeds require complete darkness for germination so after you sow and water them, cover the pots (or tray) with a few layers of newspaper.
If the seeds are kept warm at 18°-24°, they will begin to germinate in as little as 7 -14 days.
Once the majority of seeds have sprouted, remove the cover and move your plants to a sunny window. Thin and transplant the seedlings when the first 'true' leaves appear.
Plant outdoors after all danger of frost has passed.

Growing Requirements
Statice should be planted 18"-24" apart in full sun in rich, well drained soil.
