Daisy Bush, New Zealand Daisy Bush
Particularly suitable for coastal gardens, Olearia x scilloniensis (Daisy Bush) is a compact, rounded evergreen shrub with small, wavy-edged, gray-green leaves. In late spring or early summer, every shoot becomes so smothered with clusters of white, daisy-like flowers with yellow centers, that the leaf almost disappears. Fast-growing, this flowering shrub is wind-hardy, does not mind salt-laden air or atmospheric pollution, and requires very little attention.
