The plant genus ptilotus incorporates around 100 species that are endemic to Australia's arid and semi-arid areas. Ptilotus Exaltatus can grow to around 1.2 metres with rough, green foliage and thin, purple flowers up to 10cm in length bloom from April to November. While the plant can be cultivated at any time of year in Australia, experimental research into the cultivation of Ptilotus exaltatus under Central European conditions only results in attractive potted plants and cut flowers from the beginning of April to the end of September. While ptilotus exaltatus suffers from poor seed germination rates, research has indicated that removal of the perianth sheath surrounding the seed led to germination rates of 60-80%.
