Bracteantha Bracteata (Mohave White Strawflower) is a clean, elegant Australian native perennial known for its crisp white, papery blooms that retain their shape and colour even after drying. Its compact, bushy growth habit and soft grey-green foliage make it an excellent choice for adding brightness and contrast to garden beds, borders, and mass plantings. Flowering generously through the warmer months, this variety provides long-lasting visual appeal while attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators.
Highly valued for its resilience and low-maintenance nature, Strawflower thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, performing exceptionally well in hot, dry conditions. It is ideal for waterwise gardens, cottage-style plantings, and container displays, offering reliable colour with minimal care. With its extended flowering period, crisp flower colour, and durability, Mohave White is a perfect choice for gardeners seeking a fresh, versatile, and easy-care flowering plant.
