Anacyclus (Mount Atlas Daisy)

This little known plant originates in the mountainous areas of the Mediterranean, and has shown itself to be an easy-to-grow, cold hardy rock garden plant. Dense 1” tall feathery silver-gray foliage shows off the white daisy flowers in early spring. The undersides of the flower petals have a distinctive deep red color that is revealed in the mornings before the flowers unfold. Mat Daisy thrives in poor, well-drained soil. A good plant for edging gravel pathways where it will reseed itself and colonize the area.
