EVERLASTING FLOWERS 
The seeds of all the varieties may be sown outdoors early 
in spring, with the exception of Gomphrena, which sometimes 
does not germinate well in the open ground, and it is best 
to sow it indoors and transplant. For winter bouquets the 
flowers should be cut before they are fully open, tied in 
bunches and suspended with the heads down, to keep the 
stems straight.
