Helichrysum 'Silver Mist'
helichrysum
With finely textured silver foliage and stems, Helichrysum ‘Silver Mist’ makes a beautiful, branching foil plant for mixed containers or baskets. Easy to grow, this helichrysum is a tender, perennial favourite with the woolly leaves intensifying in colour with more light.
Pair it with purples and pinks, such as petunias, zonal pelargoniums or verbenas, for a truly stunning colour contrast.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plants, but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Helichrysum Silver Mist:
Pot on and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can be planted outside in a well-prepared bed.
Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth, and feed at regular intervals throughout summer with a high-potash fertiliser. Taller plants may need supporting with brushwood stems in exposed positions.
