Notes
'Fort Vancouver' arctic daisy (Chrysanthemum 'Fort Vancouver') is a perennial for border accents, mass plantings, and cutting gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun. Deer tend to pass it by. Large double blooms with bronzy-red and pink petals open in early to late summer and again in early to mid autumn. Strong stems reach up to four feet tall, and bees visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Statice, White sage, and Totally Tangerine dahlia.
