Helichrysum chionosphaerum Seeds

 Dwarf Everlasting

The genus Helichrysum consists of an estimated 600 species, in the sunflower family, Asteraceae. It occurs in Africa (with 244 species in South Africa), Madagascar, Australasia and Eurasia. The plants may be annuals, herbaceous perennials or shrubs, growing to a height of 60–90 cm (24–35 inches). The genus was a wastebasket taxon, and many of its members have been reclassified in smaller genera, most notably the Everlastings, now in the genus Xerochrysum. Helichrysum chionosphaerum commonly known as Dwarf Everlasting is a mat-forming perennial with rosettes of greyish-white silky leaves. From winter to summer it bears striking glossy white flowers with yellow centres.
