Pyrethrum Robinson's Rose seeds germinate quickly, and commonly known as Painted Daisy and Chrysanthemum Coccineum, this variety of Pyrethrum produces large, daisy-like pink-rose flowers on a top of bushy mounds of very attractive, evergreen, dark-green foliage with finely cut leaves. Perennial Painted Daisy blooms throughout spring and summer, and its showy flowers appear all summer long, attracting butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
