About This Plant
Sun or part shade; protect from western sun. A nearly evergreen perennial, with velvety white foliage and cheerful daisy flowers. Dusty Miller’s name and habit makes it a memorable bedding plant. Use it for mass among more strongly formed perennials.
Although often employed as a bedding plant, Dusty Miller is drought-, heat-, and cold-tolerant, and can be longer lived. The fuzzy leaves impart a degree of deer-resistance.
Maintenance
None.
