Double Feverfew Seeds: Cutflower, Pollinator Favorite

Double Feverfew

This is a first-year blooming perennial! Pollinators love it, and it is super drought-tolerant to boot! An easy-to-grow plant that produces loads of airy stems smothered in miniature snowball-like blooms. The fluffy white flowers have delicate golden centers, making wonderful accents in bouquets. A favorite old-fashioned variety that is so sweet and goes so well with pretty much everything. One of my new favorites for sure!

Seed Sowing & Growing Notes
Start seeds indoors in trays 8 to 10 weeks before the last frost; transplant out after all danger of frost has passed.

Harvesting/Vase Life
Harvest when one-quarter to one-half of the flowers on a spray are open. Feverfew is notorious for making its water dark and murky overnight, even with a floral preservative. To combat this, add a few drops of bleach to the water. Expect a vase life of 7 to 10 days.
