Ammobium Alatum -

, commonly known as Winged Everlasting , is a hardy perennial herb native to eastern Australia. It is widely celebrated in horticulture as an "everlasting" flower because its papery blooms retain their shape and color long after being dried. The plant is particularly distinguished by its unique "winged" stems, which feature thin, longitudinal ridges that give the species its name— alatum being Latin for "winged".
