This introduction is a very long-blooming perennial, forming an upright, midsized mound of bright-green ferny leaves. Golden-yellow daisies appear from early summer to late fall, each with a brilliant red eye. Shear plants lightly in July or August to encourage renewed blooming if flowering begins to wane. Great for the middle of a sunny border, for massing or planting in mixed containers. Tolerates heat and humidity. Truly a tremendous colour breakthrough. A 2008 introduction from Terra Nova Nurseries. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
