Feverfew is a charming perennial herb that produces masses of small, daisy-like flowers with crisp white petals and bright yellow centres from late spring through summer. Growing to around 60–90 cm tall, it brings colour and texture to cottage gardens, borders and herb gardens while attracting bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects.
Traditionally cultivated for centuries as a medicinal herb, Feverfew has long been associated with supporting general wellbeing, particularly in traditional European herbal practice. Today it is also valued as an ornamental plant, producing an abundance of long-lasting blooms that are excellent for cutting and drying. Easy to grow and drought tolerant once established, it readily self-seeds under favourable conditions.

Planting / Sowing
Surface sow or lightly press seed into a fine seed-raising mix without covering, as light assists germination. Keep evenly moist and maintain temperatures of 18–22°C until seedlings emerge. Transplant into a sunny position with well-drained soil, spacing plants 30–40 cm apart. Remove spent flowers to encourage continued blooming or leave some to set seed for natural self-sowing.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
