Golden Feverfew, Golden Feather, Chrysanthemum parthenium 'Aureum'
A highly popular golden-leaved variety, Tanacetum parthenium ‘Aureum’ (Golden Feverfew) is a mounded, clump-forming, dwarf cultivar with sprays of small white daisies atop a particularly decorative aromatic foliage. Emerging chartreuse, the feathery, fern-like foliage of pinnately lobed leaves turns green by midsummer. It is fragrant when bruised or crushed. Vigorous, this short-lived perennial will light up your garden beds from early to late summer. Allowing some seeding will keep this lovely plant in the garden.
