Notes

'Forever Happy' statice (Limonium sinuatum 'Forever Happy') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It handles cool weather and a light frost. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Its light rose-lavender flowers appear in early to late summer and again in autumn, and bees visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer. It also tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with California poppy, Silver sage, and Creeping thyme.
