bought two of these two years ago at a garden center
in Sept-Oct, they really stood out in their pots and I've moved
them twice since their current site and they have such interesting foliage hanging out and besides my sedums,
ornamental grasses (both fountain and flame grass), all
coming out for there end of the season farewell. A nice bush
with really cool white daisy flowers right till frost, well worth
finding.

Very hardy and great for xeriscaping. Comes back on previous year's growth and holds small bud-like leaves over the winter. Unique and a great flowering companion with Autumn Joy sedum.

This is a wonderful plant for the perennial garden. It is very reliable and requires little care -- only occasional watering. I planted two of these last summer (they were gallon-size potted plants). They are now about 2 feet tall by 3 feet wide. The blossoms in the fall are very much like those of the shasta daisy. The foliage is beautiful -- almost succulent in appearance. This plant tends to be very hardy in my zone 5 garden. Another major plus is that the rabbits tend to leave it alone!
