An erect, branching annual easily
established from seed. Native to North Africa and Eurasia, it has naturalized throughout
much of the United States. The plant produces an abundance of large, rounded, five to six
inch flower heads made up of small snowwhite florets. Does not seem to be temperamental
about soil conditions, but does require full sun. Looks very similar to Queen Anne's Lace
and will produce blooms the first year.
Suggested Use: Cut flower gardens, roadsides, disturbed areas.
Miscellaneous: Extensively used in the cutflower industry. Requires a minimal amount of
moisture once established.
Average Planting Success: 70%
