Pyrethrum – Tanacetum Cinerariifolium

Description

Permacultural Aid

Beautiful, clear, white, daisy like flower, with a sharp yellow center, and is a very clean plant with the foliage lower than the floating stems. They are wonderful to use in masses, and are so beneficial to your gardens for pest management. Pyrethrins attack the nervous system of many insects. If you are using a pyrethrin based spray for pest control, spray when the temps are cooler, in the late evening, or early morning before the bees and other pollinators are out. Do not plant next to edibles.
