Strawflower is a classic from grandma's garden but also an evergreen of dried flowers. We love using them for wedding arrangements because they don't wilt. They fit perfectly into corsages, wreaths, and boutonnieres. Shades range from the palest pink to a richer baby pink.

A classic of all florist shops, the cute, velvet bunny tail grass. It is great for drying, but for us, it looks most beautiful while still green. We use it to make boutonnieres for wedding guests, for wreaths, simply everywhere.

Feather grass flowers capture attention in beds and bouquets with their lightness and delicacy. All feather grasses love full sun and dry, stony, well-drained soil. To look most natural in beds, it is good to plant them in loose groups of several pieces together with other drought-loving perennials and bulbs. Only then do their stems and inflorescences, set in motion by the slightest breath of wind, truly stand out. Stipa 'Ponny Tails' is a species native to the steppes of Mexico, Texas, and Patagonia. Airy, dense clumps of hair-like delicate leaves resemble horsehair. The leaves are green, turning up to straw-colored towards the flowers. In a suitable location, it also self-seeds.

Gaura is a clump-forming perennial native to Texas and Louisiana. Here, it behaves more like a short-lived perennial. It combines beautifully with grasses and adds lightness and airiness to flower beds. It is an excellent food source for insects. Tiny flowers resembling small butterflies bloom tirelessly from June until the first frosts. For bouquets, harvest as soon as the first two or three flowers open on the stem. Siskiyou Pink is a beautiful variety with pink-red flowers on slightly arching stems. It is less hardy than the white-flowering varieties. The red-spotted leaves are also interesting.

A verbena species originally from South America. In our country, it is often used as an annual, but in mild winters it can overwinter and reproduce by self-seeding. The firm, airy stems beautifully soften perennial beds and make them special with their purple color. It beautifully complements steppe plantings with grasses and rose beds.

Divine color cocktail of sunset colors. From light champagne and apricot to salmon and old wine. Strawflower is a classic from grandma's garden but also an evergreen of dried flowers. We love using them when binding wedding flowers because they don't wilt. They are suitable for corsages, wreaths, and boutonnieres.
