Including Erigeron glaucus & Erigeron speciosus

Erigeron

Fleabane

With a carefree guise that belies their stalwart nature, Erigeron promises to embellish any little spot: cracks and crevices, window boxes, between paving stones or a border’s foreground. Happiest in well draining, even sandy soils, these vigorous, no-nonsense perennials parade daisylike blooms for months on end and can easily endure dry conditions.

Erigeron glaucus ‘Ron’s Pink’ 

Seaside Daisy

Here’s a perennial we’ve been waiting for: a pink flowering, compact selection of our native seaside daisy. Its upbeat, 2 in. wide daisies feature crowded delicate rays centered with large yellow eyes. This Ron Lutsko discovery hosts droves of blooms above a lush and tidy, bluish green basal rosette. Chipper yet tough, evergreen ‘Ron’s Pink’ maintains its composure through salt spray, howling winds and coastal drought. Zone 8/9.

Blooms May–November.

Size: 6"–12" high x 12" wide; hardy to zone 9.

Erigeron speciosus ‘Pink Jewel’ 

Oregon Fleabane

In an ebullient display, ‘Pink Jewel’s thin, closely set orchid-pink petals abundantly converge around golden yellow centers. From a bed of round-tipped basal foliage, the sturdy, branching stems clad in smaller, lance-shaped leaves bolster 1-½ in. wide, asterlike blooms which are perfect for cutting. Extremely hardy and undemanding, this floriferous, western U.S. native can be partnered with yellow flowering Achillea ‘Marmalade’ for a collage of cheerful flowers. Zone 3/4.

Blooms June–August.

Size: 18"–2' high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4.
