Almost hardy here in zone 6, and sometimes it self-sows, but there is no guarantee. This dainty fleabane, also known as Santa Barbara daisy, is perfect for filling cracks and crevices and cascading over walkways (Read--likes DRY conditions) with it's wispy stems bedecked with white aging to pink tiny daisies. Also a carefree container plant.
