I had a clump of Tanacetum macrophyllum that was growing at my old house - it grew next to the greenhouse so it got the extra moisture from the roof and had shade during the afternoon. It was very healthy, it grew at least 5' tall and had stems as thick as my thumb. It looks like a giant yarrow, the plant grows straight up and the flower heads are about 8 - 10" across. The whole clump was at least 4' across after several years and it bloomed in the early summer. It is an easy plant but it needs moisture, good soil and some shade to grow well. It is one of those plants that always is wilted when the sun hits it.
Well given its need for moister conditions to do its best I will pass on it.

Ceylon Daffodils, they face outwards, which I really like. I planted them last fall, so they're putting on a good show this spring. They make me happy with their cheerful color where only white snow has been for many months!
So nice to see everyone’s bulbs! My year in bulbs continues with Ixia ”Buttercup,” Tulipa clusiana, Dutch iris (a little past their prime), Leucocoryne and (I think) Watsonia humilis
