Sea lavender-limonium statice, which allows to make long-lasting, dried flower arrangements for baskets that do not lose their color, are ideal plants for fresh cut flowers and annual borders.

Sea lavender is a one-year plant that allows you to grow papery, eye-catching flowers on unusually wavy spikes.

These plants, also known as lemonium, develop rapidly after being planted from the seed at the beginning of spring.

They have natural varieties in the coastal Aegean and Mediterranean basins and bloom healthy in soil with plenty of permeable sun.

If you want to grow lemon in pots, choose grounded flat and wide pots.

If possible, expand the pot holes and fill them with loose and permeable garden soil where they will develop healthily.

The flowering plant, which is suitable for pot and garden production, will carry the warm and colorful summer enthusiasm to the winter months not only with its elegant shoots that it opens throughout the season, but also with its dried flowers that will decorate your vases until the following spring.

Seed sowing Early spring, February-May sowing can be done.

Likewise, since it is easier to maintain soil moisture in autumn sowing, the first attachment stage of the plant can be overcome more easily.

How to germinate: Spread the seeds on the soil surface of the production pots you fill with quality, moist peat, cover them with a thin layer of sifted germination peat or vermiculite.

Germination occurs within 7-14 days at 18-24 degrees.

In order to prevent the soil from drying out during this period, place a plate under the production pot and irrigate from here.

When the young sprouts came with hand-pickable paint, you surprised them by leaving 5 cm between each sprout in a large pot.

After the danger of frost has passed, slowly prepare the plant for outdoor weather conditions by taking it indoors again at night.

Carry the seedlings prepared in this way to a deeply ventilated and anchored area where they will receive plenty of sun in loose, filtered soil and plant them in their permanent places with a distance of 25 cm between each seedling.

Harvest the dried flower by hand during the period when the flowers are in the most beautiful color and dry.

Tie the bundles you have collected in this way and hang them upside down and allow them to dry completely.
