About This Species
Grow me instead of Oxeye daisy
Smooth fleabane is a native perennial growing to 40 cm tall. It has daisy-like flowers with yellow centres and a mass of thin, delicate “ray” flowers in violet, purple, pink, or white appearing on thick, hairy stems. Smooth fleabane requires full to part sun and regular watering to thrive. It will bloom all summer.
When selecting non-invasive plants for your garden, be sure to look for those that are suitable for your location, including moisture requirements, hardiness zone, and avoidance of known bear attractants among other factors.
