Another plant I like to grow, is the Anthemis.

A typical "Cottage garden" type of plant, that is also a perennial. It's pale Yellow daisy flowers make it suitable for any border and it grows to about 12 Inches high.

You can take cuttings early In Spring, just as the young shoots are forming and these should be potted up in 3 inch pots, in a compost with fine gravel mixed in, to help the roots form. In late May or early June, these young plants can be planted outside. During the flowering season, remove any deadheads , as this encourages more flowers.

The variety in the picture(Left) is called "HC Buxton".
