Notes
'Creamy White' strawflower (Xerochrysum viscosum 'Creamy White') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and xeriscape beds. It handles cool weather and a light frost. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, loamy soil. It grows 36 to 40 inches tall and blooms profusely, so the stems work well in fresh or dried arrangements. It sits low on the menu for deer.
Pairs well with Purple sage, Bindweed, and Lemongrass.
