Everlasting Daisy – Cate’s Orange

Chrysocephalum apiculatum ‘Cate’s Orange’

Bring a cheerful splash of colour to your garden with this hardy, low-growing native perennial. Forming a soft, spreading mound of attractive grey-green foliage, it produces clusters of vibrant golden-orange, button-like flowers throughout spring and summer. A lovely choice for garden borders, rockeries and mass plantings, it also looks beautiful spilling over the edges of pots and retaining walls.

Plant in a sunny, well-drained position and trim lightly after flowering to encourage compact growth and more blooms. Moderately frost tolerant and a great addition to any sunny garden.

Everlasting Daisy
Endemic to Western Australia, this annual everlasting daisy is a go-to-choice for creating pretty native wildflower meadow effects in your garden. With flowers ranging from pure white to deep pink with contrasting bright yellow or deep black centres, each stem is topped with a flower appearing from August to November that opens in full sunshine, closing at night or in wet conditions. Can attract a range of bees and other pollinating insects to your garden. Be sure to grow in sandy open soil in sun to part shade, feed with native fertilizer and water in dry weather and cut back old flowers to encourage reshooting. Everlastings can also be dried by hanging upside down after cutting – pick in bud, they will open as they dry and retain their colour. H-0.2-0.7m W-0.2-0.4m
