A familiar coastal plant, Erigeron 'Four Winds' is a compact, spreading perennial with grey-green foliage and pretty, yellow-centred, lavender pink daisies. Flowering throughout summer, it will self-seed readily into walls and crevices. It’s perfect for growing in a rock garden or awkward dry, sunny corner. Due to its preference for coastal habitats it’s tolerant of salt and high winds.
Grow Erigeron 'Four Winds' in a sheltered spot in well-drained soil in full sun. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering and cut back in autumn.
