BOTANICAL: Tanacetum parthenium (prev: Chrysanthemum parthenium Matricaria capensis, M. eximia)

PRONOUNCED: tan-uh-SEE-tum par-THEN-ee-um

COMMON: Feverfew BLOOM HEIGHT LIGHT ZONE Early August to September 2 ft. - 3 ft. x equal spread Sun 6 - 10 August - White COMMENTS: Because it is not reliably hardly in all areas of its range, but does self-seed eagerly, this perennial should perhaps be treated in some gardens as an over productive tender perennial. Is adaptable to even the poorest soil, but prefers a well-drained, moist sandy soil and winter mulch for double security.
