Notes
'Nijin Bigo' arctic daisy (Chrysanthemum 'Nijin Bigo') is a perennial. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun. The double blooms of gold and maroon reach up to 4.5 inches wide and open from early to late summer and again in early to mid autumn. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Bees visit the flowers, and cooler weather can deepen the colors.
Pairs well with Statice, Labyrinth dahlia, and Lemongrass.
