Provancheri's Philadelphia fleabane is a delicate native daisy found in northeastern North America, preferring moist, partially shaded environments such as woodland edges and stream banks. Keep the soil consistently moist and avoid letting it dry out completely between waterings. It is an excellent low-maintenance choice for native pollinator gardens in cool, temperate climates.
