Signs of Spring ― New Leaves
New, rosette-like leaves began sprouting this week on my Montauk Daisy (Chrysanthemum Nipponicum), though I was certain it was dead. I took a chance when I planted it rather late in the season and now I'm glad I did. This sun loving, fall blooming perennial grows to 36" high and produces large, white daisies with dark green, succulent leaves.
All of the words and photos here are mine except where noted. Click on photos for closer views. I have had a magical connection with the natural world since childhood.
