Tanacetum, often known as Matricaria or Wild Chamomile, is an annual cut flower with delicate white flowers and yellow centers, popular in bouquets.
It's an easy-to-grow plant.
The most common variety, Tanacetum parthenium (feverwort), is a short-lived perennial in milder climates (hardiness zones 5-9), but is generally grown and treated as an annual.
Harvest the stems early in the morning when 25-50% of the flowers on each stem are open. Dip the stems briefly in hot water for best results.
With proper care, Tanacetum flowers will last approximately 7-10 days in a vase.
Tanacetum is known as a relatively disease- and pest-free plant. Aphids and spider mites can sometimes be a problem. For a light infestation, you can rinse them off with a strong jet of water. Treatment with insecticidal soap may be necessary for a more serious infestation.
Sow the seeds shallowly in light, well-drained soil and press lightly. Don't cover the seeds, as they need light to germinate.
The seeds germinate after an average of 7–14 days , depending on temperature and humidity.
