(Formerly Chrysanthemum pacificum) This Japanese species forms a bushy mound of lobed green leaves, attractively edged with silver, remaining attractive all season long. Flowers appear in late fall, with soft pink petals surrounding a yellow button centre. Superb as a foliage plant in the border, or in containers. Very tolerant of summer heat and humidity.
