Mexican fleabane 'Profusion'
One of the late daisies, gone pink, 6 Oct 2026

Mexican fleabane 'Profusion'

Erigeron karvinskianus 'Profusion'

A small pot of wiry stems that Kirsty brought back from Barnsdale, catalogued late. The daisies open white and turn pink as they age, so it carries both at once.

Lives on the patio table with the Remcosemary and the sage cutting.

Did you know?

The name fleabane comes from the old belief that the dried plants drove fleas out of the house.
