Early Bird Gets the Bloom
Limonium & Statice
Guess who's making a grand return? Dazzling Limonium (stage name: Statice) is back in 39 extraordinary varieties that far surpass seed-grown strains. Thanks to tissue culture propagation, each young plug is a genetic clone possessing all of the charms of its extra-fabulous mother plant.
Since all of this greatness takes time to achieve–tissue culture is an intricate, slow laboratory process–ordering is now open for Limonium shipped this Spring 2025. If you’ve had your eye on these beauties, don’t delay: quantities will be extremely limited after August 1.
Order now to receive your plugs in weeks 8, 9 or 10 of 2025.

Limonium Growing Guide
All types of Limonium appreciate a cool start to life and prefer to be transplanted into cold soil under short day conditions. Your plugs will receive a chilling period before they ship so they will be hardened and ready for transplant.
A light frost will not bother these tough crops. Cold is necessary to initiate bud formation. Remove early flowering shoots to allow the plant to grow a large rosette of leaves that will support heavy flowering later in spring. Once they start flowering they can go on for months.
Statice types will slow down in hot weather, but the finer textured filler types will keep producing all summer and may even become perennials. We make no hardiness guarantees but many of the parent species used in Limonium breeding will easily survive in zones 4 and 5.
