Xerochrysum ‘Sundaze White’ – Everlasting Daisy
A low growing soft-wooded perennial with green foliage and white everlasting flowers that attract butterflies. A great rockery, border or pot plant for long lasting flowering. Good heat tolerant plant, performs best in full sun but will tolerate light shade. Dry soil conditions will reduce the flowering. Feed with a good native fertilizer for best performance, water well after applying to prevent leaf burn. To preserve the flowers, pick them in bud. They can last for years, and will keep their colour when dried.
