Bring the classic charm of a European meadow to your garden with this fuss-free summer bloomer.
The Corymbflower Tansy is a hardy perennial herb from Europe that brings a wild, natural look to outdoor garden beds. It grows between 0.6 and 1 meter tall, making it an ideal choice to plant behind shorter border flowers. During the summer, it stands out with its dark green, feathery leaves and large flat clusters of daisy-like white flowers with bright yellow centers.
Growing this plant is remarkably simple, making it perfect for those who are new to gardening. It thrives in either full sun or partial shade and requires only moderate watering, showing great tolerance to dry spells once established. When you want more of them, you can easily propagate them by dividing the mature plants or planting their seeds.
While you must keep this toxic plant away from pets and children, it is highly beneficial for local wildlife. The summer blooms are excellent at attracting helpful bees and butterflies to your yard. It also pairs beautifully with companion plants like Salvia nemorosa and Achillea to create a lively, colorful garden display.
