Not just another white daisy, this selection is hardier, more disease resistant and vigorous than other selections, and it does not set seeds, meaning it blooms nearly non-stop! The flowers close at night, revealing a metallic reverse that shines in moonlight. Perfect for a rock garden, border or containers. A Plant Select® award winner. |
