This rare species is a mound of cheerful 3/4" orange daisies with gently curving petals creating a little open cup surrounding the chocolate centers. Delicate looking with refined narrow foliage, it’s a strong grower that blooms all summer and requires little more than occasional deadheading. The silky petals fold up when rain threatens!
