Golden marguerite
3,78 $
Dainty little flower, similar to daisies but completely yellow. Golden marguerites will brighten up your garden with its plentiful blooms from late June until late September, when they also become a feast for pollinators.
The main appeal of this specific variety however is the rich dye that can be extracted from it, as the alternative name “dyer’s chamomile” suggests. With golden marguerite, natural fibers can be dyed in rich shades of yellow, buff and orange.
Package: 200 seeds
