- Completely overshadowed by its well known cousins and but rarely seen in gardens these days, this is a charming and easy-to-grow perennial producing clusters of sweet-scented golden flowers and aromatic, lance-shaped tarragon-like foliage.
- Repels many pests.
- Height 61-70cm (24-27").
- Aromatic foliage.
- Can be grown as a herb.
- Sow April-May 6mm (¼") deep direct into finely raked, moist, warm soil where the plants are to flower and rake the seed in gently.
- Germination usually 7-14 days. For earlier flowering, sow February/March 3mm (1/8") deep into good quality compost and place on a windowsill or in a greenhouse at approximately 18-21°C (65-70°F) to germinate.
- Space seedlings to 5cm (2") apart and grow on.
- Plant out 8-12cm (20-30") apart in a sunny position end of May.
