Tanacetum - Double Sunny Gold Feverfew - Matricaria Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemum (Matricaria) ‘Double Sunny Gold Feverfew’ is a little bundle of sunshine, producing masses of rounded, button-like flowers in a warm golden yellow. The tightly packed blooms have a wonderfully neat, almost pincushion appearance, creating an abundant display above fresh green foliage.
Its branching stems carry plenty of flowers at once, making ‘Double Sunny Gold Feverfew’ particularly useful in a cutting garden. Snip a few stems for the vase and those small golden buttons are brilliant for filling the spaces between larger blooms, bringing colour, texture and a playful finishing touch to bouquets.
In the garden, its multitude of flowers creates an equally impressive effect. Grow it amongst other summer favourites in a sunny border or dedicate a patch to cutting, where you can harvest stems regularly and enjoy plenty of home-grown flowers indoors.
Supplied in approx. 1 litre containers.

Although you may see ‘Double Sunny Gold Feverfew’ sold as either Chrysanthemum or Matricaria, these familiar cut flowers belong botanically to Tanacetum parthenium, the same species commonly known as feverfew. These types have become particularly popular as cut flowers because their branching stems carry numerous small blooms, making them excellent natural bouquet fillers.
Grow ‘Double Sunny Gold Feverfew’ in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Water regularly during active growth, particularly during warm, dry weather, but avoid allowing plants to sit in waterlogged ground. A regular liquid feed can help support healthy growth and the production of plenty of flowering stems. Cut stems regularly as the flowers develop if growing for arrangements, or remove fading blooms to keep garden plants looking tidy. In exposed positions, taller stems may benefit from some discreet support. Successive sowings or plantings can be used to extend the cutting season.
