Daisy Bush

Olearia tomentosa 'low form'

This compact shrub produces masses of cheery daisy like flowers with petals of pure white from August to May. With green upper surface leaves and undersides in a beige or pale grey, it enjoys a sunny or part shaded position, thrives in good drainage and is moderately frost-hardy.  Prune after flowering to prevent it from becoming leggy and retain its compact, mounding shape.
