Adding unique form and texture to garden beds, containers, and fresh arrangements, the feathery, silvery rose flower spires of Ptilotus exaltatus Matilda are eye-catching to say the least, especially when sunlight filters through them from behind. Like pointed bottlebrushes, the blooms are more bristly than they first appear and sit atop sturdy stems with leathery, gray-green foliage. The long-lasting blooms beckon to bees and butterflies in the garden or make excellent cut flowers that are gorgeous in a vase or unique additions to mixed bouquets.
