Statice

Most farms now produce improved "tissue culture" varieties of statice which are less susceptible to botrytis and are available in a range of interesting new pastel colours. Statice should be stored in dry, well aired conditions to avoid development of botrytis mold.
Tinted Statice is available year round in a wide range of punchy colors.

At Long's, we always have a popular selection of beautiful purple statice.
