Statice Special Mixed Seeds

Statice can be either an annual or perennial; annuals have smaller, less established roots because they complete their life cycles in one year. Our statice seeds are half-hardy annuals, so their roots won’t be too deep. As such, you can grow them in pots as well as flower beds.

No, statice flowers don’t need support. It has sturdy stems that are self-supporting, even in light winds. But if your statice is planted somewhere shady, it can become stretched as it grows, in which case it might benefit from a support or grow-through ring. Statice flowers are generally low-maintenance, not just in terms of support, but watering and feeding too.

Pair statice with cosmos or zinnia for colour. Or, for plants that thrive in a similar environment, consider lavender, echinacea, or salvia. If you're keen to pair your statice with other dried cut flowers, consider Helichrysum (Strawflowers) and grasses for indoor displays.
