Is statice an annual or perennial?
People also ask, when should you plant a statice?
Start seeds of statice flowers indoors, eight to ten weeks before the last frost date. Statice plant care may involve a hardening off period in cold temperatures when plants are three to eight weeks old, providing a more productive plant with earlier blooms. Blooms develop in mid to late summer.
Similarly one may ask, how do you take care of a statice plant?
Plant annual statice in full sun for the brightest colors and sturdiest stems. They tolerate a bit of shade, but the plant will be floppy and need support. Grow annual statice from seed, starting them indoors two months before the last expected frost date. These tiny seeds require a small amount of soil to cover them.
You can't really dig and divide statice with any success. The plants have a woody base and resent being cut. You can collect seeds, though, and sow them in the spring. It simply dies down after 2-3 years but because it sets seeds you can have new plants coming up in your garden over the years.
