The golden marguerite (Cota tinctoria), also known as dyer's chamomile, yellow chamomile, or oxeye chamomile, is a perennial flowering plant in the sunflower family. It is native to Europe, the Mediterranean, and Western Asia, and has been naturalized in scattered locations in North America.
The golden marguerite is a bushy, clump-forming perennial that typically grows 2-3 feet tall and wide. It has attractive, daisy-like flowers with bright yellow petals and yellow button centers. The flowers bloom in profusion during the summer months. The leaves of the golden marguerite are finely divided and feathery, and they are a bright green color.
The golden marguerite is a low-maintenance plant that is easy to grow. It prefers full sun and well-drained soil. It is drought-tolerant once established, but it will benefit from occasional watering during dry periods. The golden marguerite is relatively pest- and disease-resistant.
The golden marguerite is a versatile plant that can be used in a variety of garden settings. It is a great choice for perennial borders, rock gardens, and cottage gardens. It also makes an excellent cut flower. The bright yellow flowers of the golden marguerite are a magnet for pollinators, such as bees and butterflies.
