One of our more recent additions and I have to say it is a good one. Large really bright yellow semi-double daisies are held high on stiff stems. Will grow tall if left to its own devices but a quick trim in May will keep it manageable. A large clump is a sight to behold. Needs a sunny site. Height 1.2-1.8m (4-6'). Love it, but then these bright splashes seem to feel right as autumn sets in.
