How to grow:
Everlasting are valued by flower arrangers as once dried their flowers last for a very long time. They therefore make an ideal plant to grow in the garden. If you want to grow them outdoors from the off, then sow the seeds about a month before the last frost of spring; simply cover the seeds. Everlasting like to grow in a sunny part of the garden into a light sandy soil.
If you want to start off Everlasting and other Helipterum members indoors first then the growing process should start about 5 weeks before they are due to be transplanted into the garden after the last frost of spring. they should be sown in peat pots, and the seed lightly covered with soil. it will take from between two to three weeks to germinate at 18 to 24 degrees Celsius. Once ready they should be grown outdoors, spaced about 20cm apart.
