Parthenium integrifolium- Wild Quinine

Wild Quinine stands out in the garden with its dense, flat-topped clusters of unique white flowers that are reminiscent of cauliflower. These noteworthy blooms attract an array of insects, some of which come for its nectar and others for its pollen. Forms an erect clump with large, dark green foliage. A hardy plant for full sun, its sturdy taproot makes it drought-tolerant but transplant-resistant. Boasts a variety of medicinal uses and has the alternate common name of Feverfew because its leaves were traditionally used to brew a tea for reducing fever. Sun: Full Soil: Medium-Wet, Medium, Medium-Dry Bloom Time: June, July, August, September Color: White Height: 4 ft
