Purple Red Strawflower is an everlasting flower with papery purple-red blooms offset by bright yellow centers. Purple Red Strawflower is incredibly long lasting when cut, due in large part to its stiff, papery bracts, which create a beautiful daisy-like effect. Purple Red Strawflower is easy to grow and a champion in hot and arid regions. No cutting garden is complete without strawflowers. Purple Red Strawflower makes an excellent dried flower, retaining its color and shape for months or even years. Just cut the blooms and enjoy them in DIY craft projects, such as dried flower wreaths.
