A tidy, compact, long-flowering perennial that provides colour and interest throughout much of summer and autumn.
- From June to October, masses of bicoloured daisy-like flowers, golden yellow in colour with a mahogany red centre, are produced on airy stems. Regular deadheading will prolong the flowering time later into the autumn.
- Very fine, feathery dark green foliage provides softness and texture to surrounding plants, and compliments its own contrasting flowers.
- An ideal plant for a full sun, well-drained area, and can also tolerate semi-shade. It has a good tolerance for drought once established. A very good plant for pots due to its long flowering time, and also makes for a great cut flower. A staple in prairie-style gardens, mixed perennial and shrub borders, coastal gardens and rockeries.
- The flowers will attract a wide range of bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
- Height and Spread approx. 40-60cm x 40-60cm.
- Supplied in a 9cm pot
