Golden Marguerite (Anthemis tinctoria 'Moonlight') is an amazing, low-maintenance plant. With bright golden-yellow, daisy-like flowers, it will add a cheery touch to your garden. The foliage is silver-green, making a striking contrast with the yellow blooms. The blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other beneficial insect species, making it an excellent source of nectar and pollen for wildlife. It is also drought-tolerant and deer-resistant, making it an ideal selection for a low-care garden. Easy to grow, it blooms throughout summer until the first hard frost. Its long flowering period and ability to fill in gaps in the garden makes it an asset for any garden.

watering
Golden marguerite (Anthemis tinctoria 'Moonlight') should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. This typically happens about once a week, depending on the temperature and humidity in the environment. During hot days, the plant may need to be watered twice per week. However, during cooler days, it may only need to be watered once every 2 weeks. Avoid over-watering the plant, as this can cause root rot. If the soil stays constantly moist, root rot can occur very quickly.
sunlight
Golden Marguerite (Anthemis tinctoria 'Moonlight') is best grown in full sun but can tolerate some shade during the hottest parts of the day. For optimal growth, the plant should receive 6 to 8 hours of full sun per day, ideally concentrated in the morning and afternoon hours. In areas with extreme heat and high temperatures, it is best to provide the plant with partial shade in the afternoon hours to help protect from scorching.
pruning
Golden marguerite (Anthemis tinctoria 'Moonlight') should be pruned once or twice a year. For optimal growth, before the plant blooms in early summer, you should prune off any old or dead flower heads, as well as any dead or diseased stems. For a more natural look, lightly shear the entire plant in late fall or in late winter, before new growth begins. When pruning, you should remove only 1/3 of the total height, and take care to preserve the natural shape and size of the plant.
