Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This girl has been around for awhile…a testimony to her hardiness. In early autumn, warm yellow daisies age to apricot tones. Plants can grow to a lanky 28”, so pinch back in June for a sturdier habit and more flowering stems. Grow in well drained soil and sun. Beloved by bees and butterflies.
Butter-yellow daisy blooms are washed with a peach glow as the flower ages and the nights get cooler. An easy care, hardy variety that slowly spreads to large clumps that need little care, perhaps a pinch in June or dividing once in a blue moon. For rich, organic soils that are well-drained. Looks lovely with native grasses, blooms September to October.
A winter hardy mum in zones 5-9 producing masses of soft apricot yellow daisy like flowers maturing to gold. Grows 24"-30" tall, blooming in September thru October. Likes sun to part shade. May be listed as "Dendrantheumum" A great Cut Flower.
