- Species and varieties: Helichrysum bracteatum, commonly known as strawflower, is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family Asteraceae. The 'Sweet Pink' variety is known for its vibrant pink blooms that are popular in dried flower arrangements.
- Hybrid or heirloom: The 'Sweet Pink' strawflower is typically an heirloom variety, known for its traditional cultivation and open-pollinated nature, making it a favorite among gardeners who prefer non-hybrid seeds.
- Pruning and training: Regular deadheading of spent blooms encourages continuous flowering. Strawflowers do not require extensive pruning but benefit from occasional trimming to maintain shape and promote bushier growth.
- Fertilization needs: Strawflowers are relatively low-maintenance in terms of fertilization. A balanced, all-purpose fertilizer applied at planting time and once during the growing season is usually sufficient. Over-fertilization can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
- Hardiness zones: Strawflowers are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 8-10. They can be grown as annuals in cooler climates.
- Climate requirements: Strawflowers thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. They prefer a warm climate and can tolerate drought conditions once established. They are not frost-tolerant and should be planted after the last frost date in cooler regions.
