Forever Happy Statice Seed

Item #HSC-STA-003-PKT

Rose-lavender statice with yellow flowers.

Fresh, Forever Happy shows light rose-lavender bracts around sunny yellow true flowers, an unusual pairing that helps tie different colors together in an arrangement. When dried, only the rose-lavender keeps its color.

First cuts are a bit short, but stems lengthen with later harvests. Very uniform plants carry 1 1/2–3" clusters on strong stems. Statice lasts a long time fresh and is one of the easiest flowers to dry, holding its color well.

Plants grow 20–30" tall and flower about 110–120 days from sowing. Open-pollinated.

Growing guide

From seed to harvest

Start in trays

Sow 5–6 weeks ahead in 50-cell trays at about 70°F, barely covered; direct sowing is not advised.

Root them cool

Hold seedlings near 60°F for 1–2 weeks after emergence, then plant out after frost.

Space in sun

Set plants 8–12" apart in full sun and rich, well-drained soil.

Cut when colored

Harvest when most florets are open and colored; hang upside down to dry.

Growing Information

About 5–14 days at around 70°F (21°C).

Starting transplants (recommended)

Sow in 50-cell trays or similar containers 5–6 weeks before planting out. Light helps the seed sprout, so cover it only enough to keep it in place. Harden off and plant out after the last frost. Direct sowing is not recommended.

Cool start

Keeping seedlings at about 60°F (16°C) for a week or two after they come up helps them root well.
