Golden Marguerite

Anthemis tinctoria 'E.C. Buxton'

Plant Details:

Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Asteraceae
Plant Description: This plant has an abundance of light-yellow daisy-like flowers that bloom above aromatic, lacy green foliage. These dainty blooms can be enjoyed throughout the summer and sometimes into the fall. It is great for adding interest and color to perennial borders and planting beds.

Maintenance:

Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
