Tanacetum vulgare 'Isla Gold'

Tansy-Gold Leaf

The perfect accent to almost any other color in the garden. Grown for its fantastic foliage; glowing citron yellow, lacy, fragrant foliage forms a robust clump that remains attractive all season. Flat-topped corymbs of golden yellow, button-like flowers attract pollinators in summer. Easy to grow; deadhead to prevent reseeding.
