Bracteantha Mohave Fire Red 140mm

Bracteantha ‘Mohave Fire Red’, often known as strawflower or paper daisy, is a standout performer that delivers intense, fiery red blooms with a striking golden centre. The flowers have a unique papery texture that not only adds visual interest but also holds its colour exceptionally well—both in the garden and when cut for indoor arrangements.

This variety is compact and well-branched, making it perfect for pots, hanging baskets, and garden borders. It thrives in full sun and handles heat and dry conditions far better than many flowering plants, making it an excellent choice for coastal and warmer climates like ours.

Tip: Deadhead regularly by removing spent flowers to keep the plant producing fresh blooms and maintain a tidy, compact shape.
