Ammobium

Plants

$9.00

Size:

7cm Pot

Variant

Adorable sprays of white mini strawflower-type flowers with statice liked winged stems. Great fresh but perhaps even better dried if harvested when first bloom just starts showing its yellow centre.

Space about 18-25cm apart in a mostly sunny spot. Reasonably good at holding itself upright though the wind may knock over some stems from time to time. Annual, but a very long lasting annual - kept deadheaded/harvested it will continue flowering for months on end.

Our Plant Boxes

We've designed our plant boxes to be as courier proof as physically possible to ensure your plants always arrive in top condition!

To cover the costs of our customs boxes we do however have a minimum plant order of $65 (approx. 7 plants) – you can mix & match any plants or sleeve specials to meet the minimum. (Plant Collection Boxes are however standalone boxes and do not count towards the minimums).

If you want to make the most of the shipping, our plant boxes can fit up to 10 plants per box, and for the most cost effective per plant shipping we can tape two boxes together (which fits 20 plants total).

Plant orders are shipped on Mondays (& Tuesdays).

See our Shipping Page for more info.

Ammobium alatum

Plant Type: Hardy Annual

Ideal Location: Full Sun

Spacing: 15–28cm

Height: 40–60cm+

Overwintered plants will be much much larger than plants planted in Spring, they will likely need some sort of support to keep them upright. Later plantings usually hold themselves up without too much support.

Harvest for drying after the first flower has fully opened but before all the rest have fully opened. In our humid climate dried ammobium can only be kept straight when hanging upside down.
