have: new feverfew seeds
Comments (0)I now have feverfew seeds available for trade. Am looking for empire, honeycrisp, or winesap apple seeds or seedlings; apricot seedlings, lowbush blueberry seeds or plants, waltham (or similar) broccoli seeds, carrot seeds, comfrey seeds or plants, meadowsweet seeds or plants, zolushka potato seeds, any potato seeds, yarrow seeds or plants, and mary washington asparagus seeds. Thank you...See Morefeverfew color question
Comments (5)I agree with Flora. The center disks get larger and rounder as the plant works on making seeds so seeing those you know the flowers are older. Feverfew is a beauty to add to any garden. Largely pest and worry free. It is a prolific self-seeder so if that is a problem, dead-head as the flowers loose their petals. But since feverfew is so short-lived, you'll want to save some seeds or let Nature take its course if you want feverfew to continue in your gardens. FataMorgana...See MoreFeverfew in the rose garden?
Comments (24)Ha! I think I have figured out some of the contradictions above (annual/perennial; reseeds massively/does not; invasive or not; woody or not; and the PICTURES!). We appear to be talking about 2 completely unrelated plants - chrysanthemum parthenium (aka tanacetum perthenium) and orlaya grandiflora. The former is a type of daisy (perennial), looks like a daisy, talks like a daisy, walks like a daisy, etc. The latter is an annual, looks related to Queen Anne's Lace. Look at the pictures - the ones posted by Irisgal directly above are orlaya grandiflora. The one posted higher up by Vickysgarden is a version of the daisy one. This is what we get for using only a common name - many totally unrelated plants have the same common name. Although when I looked on the web I must say that I never found any reference to orlaya gradiflora being called "feverfew", that does not mean it is not called that somewhere.

Comments (7)Certain varieties of Mugwort do look like and are sometimes VERY difficult to distinguish from Feverfew just on foliage alone. They also have aromatic foliage.... Your plant does look like Feverfew, but the only way you can be 100% sure is to wait until it blooms....See MoreJeanne_in_Idaho
