You’ll LOVE growing strawflowers, Jane! I spend lots of time watering too. A necessary evil of gardening! 😉

I have never grown strawflowers but they sound perfect for our hot summers. I spend a lot time watering so I vote for anything that takes less water! Pinning and sharing!

Hi Barbara,
Yes, Strawflowers are smart little things, closing up almost like they don’t want the rain to get into their eyes! LOL I hope yours are blooming wonderfully in the Summer sunshine, and glad I could help!

I just bought my first straw flowers today and brought them home. Then came a monsoon storm, and my flowers closed up to hard little knobs! Concerned, I came looking on the internet and found your blog! Thanks, I’ll stop worrying and maybe they’ll open again when the sun comes out in the morning?

You’re so right, Carrie! This Summer in particular has “drought-tolerant” written all over it! Too bad it isn’t as easy to make ME a drought-tolerant, heat-and-high-humidity-tolerant, person! 😉
