The listing, 10- Ptilotus Seeds Annual Plant has ended.

Ptilotus exaltatus 'Joey'(Pink ***** Tails)-A short lived herbaceous perennial to 12 to 15 inches tall with silver-green foliage oblong shaped leaves and from winter through spring 3-4 inch long feathery spikes of small flowers in conical arrangements that start out silvery in bud and age to a nearly neon pink color from the bottom of the spike up. Plant in full sun in a well-drained, preferably acidic, soil. May over winter in USDA Zones 9-10 but this plant is difficult to maintain and might be best planted as an annual. Ptilotus is primarily an Australian genus that comes from throughout the continent from tropical areas to the arid inland. Ptilotus exaltatus occurs widely through the drier regions. Harvested 2013 from my garden.
