Craspedia
globosa * Billy Buttons |
| Craspedia globosa has
these 1" globes that grow on long stems. The
gray leaves are linear and grass-like. This makes for an interesting
contrast in the garden. The yellow flowers last for a tremendous time on
the plant and dry fantastically. Craspedia globosa will bloom spring through summer. I have
grown Billy Buttons in east exposures and in full sun. It has performed well in both. They
work well as a dried flower or as a cut flower. Craspedia globosa is a
native to Australia. Individual plants will die off but I seem to
get enough seedlings to keep them going year after year.
