Ajania

Ajania (Chrysanthemum  pacifica) is a really neat type of chrysanthemum that is grown for it’s folliage rather than for its flower.  It is a low mounding perennial (almost evergreen in my yard) for full sun that is very drought tolerant.  It does have small yellow flowers in the late summer summer or early fall, but it they aren’t much.  The lobed leaves are beautiful though.

This is another plant that was given to me by a friend and it took me a long time to actually figure out what it really is.  Ajania is originally from Asia, but it does well here and is not invasive.  I haven’t found any problems with this plant – no bugs, not fungus – nothing.  It’s lovely.
