Bracteantha ‘Daisy Fields Gold’

Common Name:
Strawflower ‘Daisy Fields Gold’

Description:
Bracteantha ‘Daisy Fields Gold’ is a vibrant and compact Australian native strawflower variety, celebrated for its bold golden-yellow blooms and exceptional garden performance. The papery-textured flowers have a signature straw-like quality, opening to reveal warm, sunny tones that brighten up any bed, border or container. This variety produces masses of blooms over an extended period, thriving from late winter through spring and into summer in Melbourne’s climate. It prefers a sunny, well-drained position and is especially valued for its drought tolerance once established. The compact, mounding habit makes it ideal for cottage gardens, native-themed plantings, and low-maintenance landscapes. 'Daisy Fields Gold' is also highly attractive to bees and butterflies, contributing to pollinator health and garden vitality. The flowers retain their colour and shape well when dried, making them popular for long-lasting cut arrangements and crafts.
