Everlasting Flower Mix Art Pack Seeds

Sale price$5.79

While there is no hiding from the universal truth of impermanence, there are places to find respite. Everlasting flowers are one such foothold: they are something beautiful that lasts. The blooms delight us in the garden from mid-summer on, and when harvested and dried they keep their bright, cheerful tones throughout the colder months. Alas, after a year or two of exposure to ambient light, the blooms begin a slow process of fading: everlasting in name only, they, too, must eventually cede to impermanence. Annie Rochelle’s watercolor-and-ink rendering of this mix captures the flowers at peak freshness—just before they would be harvested for drying—while its pale palette suggests the muted tones of the dried blooms.Shallowly sow seeds indoors in individual pots, one or two per cell. As the sprouts put on their first true leaves, you will be able to distinguish them from each other. Transplant outdoors after danger of threat is past, making sure to plant a good mix of seedlings for balanced bouquets. Cut the finest flowers of each variety as they bloom and hang upside down inside in a well-ventilated, cool spot, away from direct light. Assemble your forever (or nearly!) dried bouquets at seasons' end for lasting winter cheer. Art pack designed by EstA Macleod for Hudson Valley Seeds.
