Limonium sinuatum aka Perennial Sea Lavender
Taxonomy ID: 2100
Limonium sinuatum, also known as wavyleaf sea lavender, statice, sea lavender, notch leaf marsh rosemary, and sea pink, is a Mediterranean plant species in the family Plumbaginaceae. This erect annual can grow up to 60cm in height and has sinuately lobed basal leaves. In summer and early autumn, it produces dense short spikes of bright yellow flowers. Native to the entire Mediterranean Basin, Limonium sinuatum thrives in sandy grounds and is known for its papery flowers that are often used in dried arrangements. It is a favorite choice for cutting gardens due to its ability to dry well. These hardy plants are tolerant to salty and sandy soils, making them suitable for coastal gardens. With their low maintenance requirements, statice plants perform well in dry soils with low to average fertility and can thrive in all climate zones as an annual.
