How to grow Strawflowers from seed

 

[Logan]

I used to grow them but i got fed up with the slugs and snails eating them when they were young, but they did grow out of it and that i don't do dried flower arrangements any more.

I used to grow these and dry them for flower arrangements and their other name is helichrysum, if it still is and the butterflies like them.
