What is this flower

5 years ago


I bought this flower at Home Depot and it was missing a tag to identify it. I don’t know if it’s a spring only flower in my zone (I live in Chicago area, Illinois) or if it can take the heat of summer. Does it like full sun or shade or partial sun? Is it a annual or perennial? I love daisies and it looks like a daisy so perhaps it’s in the mum family? Any help would be appreciated!

    Its a Senetti, a Pericallis hybrid (commonly called cineraria). It is a tender perennial usually grown as a cool season annual. Won't take heat well, especially in full sun, so a shadier location might prolong its vitality and flowering period.

    you can probably continue bloom by deadheading it ...


    are you using it as a potted deck plant.. or thinking about in ground???
