Tanacetum parthenium ‘Aureum’
Golden Feverfew |
USDA Zone: 3-9 |
Plant number: 1.508.600
(Formerly Chrysanthemum parthenium) Golden Feverfew is grown mostly for its beautiful chartreuse-yellow foliage, which forms a low bushy mound, perfect for edging. Well-suited to both the flower and herb garden. Plants burst into a display of single white daises in mid-summer. A short-lived perennial, this will self-sow about and should return for many years. Excellent as a cut flower. Plants may be pruned back hard to rejuvenate the leaves after blooming. Seedlings that appear may be moved at any time.
