Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Anthemis marschalliana is a low growing prostrate marguerite with stunning, finely-dissected, silver foliage topped with cheery yellow daisies for a long period in late spring and summer. Drought tolerant. From Turkey and the Caucasus.
Lacy mat of silvery foliage beautiful through much of the year, but in May and June the chrome- yellow daisies glow for weeks on end. This tough, mat-forming perennial from West Asia will become a centerpiece of your xeriscape or dry border. Also grows in loamy soils if not over fertilized.
