Feverfew
Tanacetum parthenium
Feverfew is a cheerful, easy-care perennial herb producing masses of small daisy-like white flowers throughout summer. Plant in well-drained soil in a sunny to partly shaded spot and water regularly but avoid soggy conditions. It self-seeds freely, so deadhead after flowering if you want to control its spread, and harvest leaves for their traditional medicinal uses.
