Ideal will be blankets, kraspedia, zatrwian, amaranth, and if you have a hard time deciding bet on a mix of plants for dry bouquets.

Most flowers for dry bouquets prefer a sunny position and permeable, well-drained soil. Before sowing, it is a good idea to enrich the soil with compost or organic fertilizer to give the plants a good start.
