Chrysanthemum pacificum
Gold and Silver Mum
Description
This bi-colored groundcover is stunning because of the color splashed effects. Leaves have a silvery edge to them. It is heat and drought tolerant, spreading slowly. Flowers look like yellow buttons. This plant is known more for its foliage than flowers. During the heat of the summer, deep water every 1-2 weeks. Cut it back in winter to make it more presentable.
