Erigeron karvinskianus
Admittedly, I didn't come across the Spanish daisy until late. It blooms and blooms and blooms and blooms . For months. Non-stop.
And it multiplies so wonderfully. In cracks, in walls, in flower beds, in pots. Light and delicate, like a breath, and yet powerful and overflowing with flowers in pink and white.
Completely undemanding . Loves sun, but is also happy in partial shade. Drought , no problem! Seeds itself and forms dense cushions.
And is avoided by snails.
