Dusty Miller 'New Look'

New Look is one of the most productive and distinctive Dusty Miller varieties available. It features thick, upright stems and large, smooth-edged silver leaves that create a bold, modern texture in the garden or vase. Unlike the finely lobed types, New Look offers a cleaner silhouette that stands out in both fresh and dried arrangements.

The more you harvest it, the more it produces—making it a favourite for cut flower growers and bouquet fillers. As with other Dusty Millers, flowers are typically removed to direct energy into vigorous foliage growth.

Tolerant of heat, drought, and poor soils once established, this easy-care foliage plant provides a strong silver accent all season long.

Also known as Silver Ragwort, Senecio cineraria, or Jacobaea maritima.
Usually grown as an annual, though it is a tender perennial in Zones 8–10.

HOW TO GROW:

Transplant (recommended): Sow 8–10 weeks before the last frost. Do not cover seeds, as light is required for germination—a light layer of vermiculite may be applied to help retain moisture. Bottom water or mist gently to avoid displacing seeds.

Transplant into cell packs or larger containers once the first true leaves appear. Keep foliage as dry as possible and avoid late-day watering to reduce the risk of Alternaria (leaf spot disease).

Direct seeding is not recommended.
