Blackfoot Daisy

Blackfoot Daisy brings cheerful, long-lasting color to hot, dry gardens with crisp white daisy-like flowers surrounding sunny yellow centers. Blooming from spring through summer and often into fall, it forms a low mound of narrow gray-green foliage that looks right at home along pathways, in rock gardens, at the front of borders, or spilling gently over walls.

Native to rocky grasslands, limestone slopes, and desert landscapes of the southern Great Plains and Southwest, Blackfoot Daisy thrives in intense sun, lean soil, and excellent drainage. Its abundant flowers support native bees, butterflies, and other small pollinators, while its compact 6–12 inch habit makes it easy to tuck into water-wise plantings without overwhelming neighboring plants.
