Nipponanthemum nipponicum

The big white daisy flowers start to open at the end of September in our garden. I love this plant, it provides a stunning display at a time of year when other plants are starting to look a bit tired.

I have three plants in The Pylon Garden here at The Paddock, I value them not just for their floral display but also their rounded mound of green leaves.

I prune back the branches in spring. Over winter, big fat green growth buds are borne along the stems, alway looking like they can’t wait to burst into growth.
