Statice is a Mediterranean native herb that has been cultivated since the 17th century for its beautiful flowers and medicinal properties. It is highly favored by florists as the clusters of flowers last a very long time after being cut. The papery flowers are considered ‘everlasting’ because they dry well and retain their color. Statice plants produce abundant sweetly fragrant flowers, can tolerate heat, dryness, and coastal conditions, and grow quickly, making them a popular choice for annual planting in cooler climates. They are also known to be deer resistant.

I ended up only receiving about 36 of the 50 that I was suppose to receive and I never got a response.
Miss Parker –
I love statice because of their double-duty as dried flowers that last indefinitely! I bought these seeds in an order of over $80. The entire order was shipped/arrived SO quickly, was safely packaged, and each packet was labeled with instructions & info. I especially appreciated the photograph of the item on each packet. It is a great memory-refresher! I would absolutely do repeat business with Seedville USA!
