Very nice.

It's hard to tell...is it white or lavender? (I know it says blue)

Also nice in size...how long has it been planted there?

When I saw you post, I thought: Kalimeris? Kalimeris? Why do I know that name?

Then it hit me, I planted a Kalimeris integrifolia 'Daisy Mae' this spring. It was a pretty small plant and hasn't bloomed yet, but it seems to be growing fast. It wouldn't surprise me if it did bloom before the end of summer.

Yours is pretty. I'm looking forward to seeing what mine does.

The aster like flowers have petals with a hint of blue and a yellow center.

(I think the plant you are seeing is now in its 3rd year in our garden).

"...Kalimeris integrifolia 'Daisy Mae'...."

Of course I immediately looked up this particular species. Very nice Kevin.

A customer recently came in looking for this plant, and I wasn't familiar with it. One of our growers had it, so we ordered it in and they were all promptly acquired by our avid gardening customers. Next time we get it in, I'll have to make sure I grab one quickly before we're sold out again!

Saweeet!

Have you had much seeding from that, Rouge? I had a Kalimeris (not sure which one - a neighbour gave it to me) that seeded around vigorously. It was pretty but I eventually got rid of it. I'm becoming less tolerant of self-seeders and have a number of things that are now questionable but that I used to like!

'woody', I have two of these KIB, both in the same general area and I have not noticed any seeding.

So pretty! I also heard that Kalimeris was a determined self seeder so I have previously stayed away. Perhaps certain cultivars are better behaved.

Due to Rouge, I too have the Kalimeris in its semi first year, planted late last year. Starting to look good but would seem to need time to develop.
