Craspedia globosa
(100 days) Open pollinated.

Annual. Drumroll, please. The globular dimpled ¾" yellow flower heads set atop durable 18" stems do look a bit like they could mark out a paradiddle or two. But better use would be as a carefree garden accent with a prolonged bloom, or brought inside in a long-lasting bouquet. They also dry with no fuss. Just stand them upright and they dry perfectly, retaining their color. A tender perennial in Zones 8–11 that blooms almost the entire season. In less temperate climes start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. ~1,100 seeds/g.
