ANTHEMIS E.C. Buxton - Medium 2'- Plant 20" apart. Bushy strong erect stems. White flowers with yellow centers. Removing the spent flowers will promote flowering from late spring into early fall. Drought tolerant.
General Information
Free flowering, provides an abundance of yellow daises all summer and fall for bouquets. The foliage is elegantly cut. Avoid heavier soils for these pest free plants.

This anthemis is a hybrid and propagatian from seeds is questionable. Dividing the rootball or propagatian from cuttings seems to me more suitable. The leaves are slighty scented. It should be suitable for xeriscaping but grows also happy with some rainfall.
