Description
Looking for a flower that’s cheery, classy, playful, and tough as nails? Winged Everlasting Ammobium is your girl. We basked in her congenial personality all season, as her starry, bright blooms brought delight to farmers market bouquets, wedding arrangements, and an abundance of dried flower projects. Cut before the flowers open for all-white blooms, or wait a few more days to reveal their yellow, sunny centers. Native to Australia, Winged Everlasting has been in the commercial seed trade since at least 1880.
