I didn't know anything about this plant when I got it.  Didn't even know the Latin name or a common name.  It was sold to me as Aunt Ida's daisy.  That didn't stop it from growing.  I planted it in a partial shade area and its been moving slowly to a more sunny area.  It's a very reliable plant for fall blooming unlike its cousins the mums that keep dieing out on me.
