Statice Purple Limonium Salt & Drought Tolerant Garden Flower Plant Seeds

Statice (Limonium Sinuatum Purple Attraction) - Commonly known as Statice, this annual features dense sprays of small, papery blooms on stiff stems. The plants establish easily from Statice seeds, and once they are blooming, they put on a lovely show that both the gardener and the butterflies will enjoy. Purple Statice is a very popular cut flower for both fresh and dried uses.

Purple Limonium flowers prefer to be grown in full sun locations and in well-drained soils. These plants do not tolerate soggy conditions, and they do not like to be disturbed once they are established. Statice plants are fairly drought and salt tolerant.
