100 Seeds Feverfew Herb Tanacetum parthenium Daisy-like Flowers
Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) is a classic cottage garden herb grown for its cheerful, daisy-like blooms and aromatic, ferny foliage. This hardy perennial behaves like a short-lived perennial or self-seeding annual in many climates, quickly forming bushy clumps that brighten borders, herb gardens, and wildflower patches with a long season of small white flowers with yellow centers.
Feverfew is a versatile garden plant that works well in mixed borders, cutting gardens, and pollinator-friendly landscapes. The dainty blooms are long-lasting when cut and blend beautifully with other cottage garden favorites. Plants are easy to grow from seed, tolerant of a range of conditions, and will readily naturalize when allowed to go to seed, returning year after year with minimal effort.
