Characteristics:
Heat and drought tolerant. Deer resistant. Attracts
butterflies and birds
|
1998 Perennial Plant of
the Year by the Perennial Plant Association. This staple of
the southern summer garden tolerates heat, full sun and
less-than-wonderful soil conditions. Very sensitive, however, to
poor drainage. The drooping petals (ray flowers) around the raised
central cone (disc flowers) put on a great show in small numbers or
in masses. |
|
Uses: Borders,
meadows, butterfly gardens, masses, small gardens and containers,
cut and dried flowers. |
