Description
The giant  Silvery-Rose produces lots of papery flowers in beautiful silvery-pink tones just as the variety name reveals.

The variety produces double and large flowers that shimmer in the daylight with their magical color.

It is excellent for use as a cut flower but is equally enchanting when dried. Of all the flower varieties that can be dried, this is our customer service manager Ulrica's great favorite.

She usually mixes Silvery-Rose with currant and fills her home with perpetual bouquets to enjoy when the summer season seems far away.

The reason it's her favorite is because the color is so cold pink and pearly.

Care and cultivation advice

Pre-cultivated indoors April-May in sowing soil. Cover the seed with a transparent cover provided with air holes for the best germination results, but it also works without it. When the seeds germinate, the seed needs to be in light and plant lighting can be used in darker areas. The plants can be planted out when the risk of frost is over. Just like all young plants, this variety needs to be protected from strong spring sun. So let the plant stand for shorter periods in the sun for the first few days so that it can acclimatize!

This variety can also be sown directly when the soil is properly warmed up. Make sure the soil is moist during the germination period.)

(Clean reYellowarly for a longer bloom!)

The flowers can be dried, keep in mind that they should be dried when they have just bloomed for best results.
