Anthemis sancti-johannis

Masses of the sunniest orange marguerite daisies make Anthemis sancti-johannis a bright, unusual, and wonderfully useful perennial for summer gardens. This hard-to-find beauty produces glowing orange daisy flowers above bushy, ferny, fragrant foliage, bringing cheerful color and fine texture to borders, dry gardens, cottage plantings, and pollinator beds.

Also known as orange chamomile or St. John’s chamomile, this drought tolerant perennial grows to about 2' tall and blooms through summer, when many gardens are grateful for another wave of heat-ready color. The vivid orange flowers pair beautifully with lavender, blue salvias, silver foliage, yarrow, ornamental grasses, and deep purple companions. It is especially effective in sunny mixed plantings where a warm, naturalistic look is welcome.

Plant Anthemis sancti-johannis in full sun with well-drained soil. Once established, it tolerates dry conditions well and rewards minimal fuss with masses of bright blooms. Easy, fragrant, and hard to ignore, this is a glowing garden accent. Explore more favorites in our Best-Selling Perennials & Biennials collection.
