Tanacetum parthenium

Description

Also known as Matricaria, or Feverfew.

This is another mix, open-pollinated seed line from our cutting garden. These sweet white, white & yellow, and cream button and daisy-like flowers are one of our favorite bouquet fillers, as well as an excellent drying flowers. Feverfew is said to have medicinal qualities as well, though we suggest using plants as medicine with caution.

Feverfew is quite easy to start from seed. Sow seeds indoors, in flats, 6-8 weeks before your last frost. Do not cover seed, as light is required for germination. Sow outdoors after last frost, spacing 8-12”. Feverfew is considered a tender perennial.
