Bracteantha Bracteata (Mohave Yellow Strawflower) is a bright and cheerful Australian native perennial valued for its rich golden-yellow, papery blooms that retain their colour and structure even when dried. Its compact, bushy habit and soft grey-green foliage make it ideal for adding vibrant, long-lasting colour to garden beds, borders, and mass plantings. Flowering generously through the warmer months, this variety delivers continuous visual impact while attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators.

Highly regarded for its toughness and low-maintenance nature, Strawflower thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, making it an excellent choice for waterwise and low-care gardens. It performs exceptionally well in hot, dry conditions and is perfect for cottage gardens, containers, and floral arrangements. With its extended flowering season, bold colour, and durability, Mohave Yellow is a reliable and versatile choice for gardeners seeking easy-care, high-impact colour.
