Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Galaxy' has a double tier of cheery yellow petals that shine against the glossy green foliage. The plants are smaller than others in the series -- 12 inches tall and wide -- making them great for containers and the front of the border. The Big Bang Series is the culmination of extensive breeding work. Plants in this series are well-branched featuring daisy-like flowers that bloom continuously from midsummer into fall. The unique flower forms and colours are out of this world!
'Galaxy' is quickly becoming a standby perennial for season-long color and durability. It's a sturdy, compact, heavy bloomer with semi-double, bright yellow blooms. Very well-branched with a very long bloom time and attracts butterflies (but not deer). Great in a cutting garden, butterfly garden, as a ground cover or in a container.
