- Species and varieties: White static flower seeds belong to the species 'Limonium sinuatum', commonly known as Statice or Sea Lavender. There are several varieties of this species, but the white static is particularly known for its pure white, papery flowers.
- Hybrid or heirloom: White static flower seeds are typically heirloom, meaning they are open-pollinated and can be saved and replanted, producing plants true to the parent plant.
- Pruning and training: Pruning is not typically necessary for white static flowers. However, deadheading spent flowers can encourage more blooms. No specific training is required as these plants naturally grow in a bushy, clump-forming manner.
- Fertilization needs: White static flowers are not heavy feeders. A light application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at planting time should be sufficient for the growing season.
- Hardiness zones: White static flower seeds are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 3-10. They are quite hardy and can tolerate a range of climates.
- Climate requirements: These seeds prefer full sun and well-drained soil. They are drought-tolerant and can thrive in coastal and dry climates.
