E verlastings and Strawflowers 
Stravvflowers, Everlastings and Ornamental Grasses are beautiful in the garden or cut, but are principally 
grown to dry and use during the winter. For this purpose, cut them before they are fully developed, remove 
foliage, bunch loosely and hang heads downward in a cool, airy and shady place until dried. All grow well 
in any good garden soil, in a sunny position.
