Notes
'Forever Moonlight' statice (Limonium sinuatum 'Forever Moonlight') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It grows fast to 24 to 30 inches tall and bears yellow and lavender blooms that bees visit. The flowers make a sturdy cut or dried stem. Deer tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with California poppy, Creeping thyme, and Purple sage.
