Dusty miller seeds – This offering includes over 120 seeds of the Senecio cineraria, commonly known as Silverdust, Silverado, and Snowflakes. These plants can reach heights of 8 to 18 inches and feature 3 to 7 inch long leaves that are finely cut and velvety, resembling snowflakes. The blooms are bright yellow in color.
These plants are heat tolerant and drought resistant, requiring low maintenance. They are tender perennials in zones 8 to 10, but can be grown as annuals in all zones. They thrive in full sun to partial shade and can adapt to most soil types. Dusty miller grows well in containers, is known to withstand frost, and serves as a great option for light-colored edging or bedding. It is also used for creating high contrast with green and dark colors in gardens.
Furthermore, the dusty miller is hardy and makes an excellent cut flower filler. It is perfect for craft projects and dries well. These can be harvested fresh or dry at the desired length. Instructions for growing are included with the seeds.
