About this Plant
Santa Barbara Daisy – A long-blooming California native for sunny and coastal gardens.
The Santa Barbara Daisy (Erigeron) is an evergreen perennial known for its lavender, daisy-like flowers and exceptional durability. This California native tolerates clay soil, drought, gophers, and deer, making it one of the most reliable low-water plants for a wide range of garden settings.
This 4-inch plant thrives in coastal conditions, handling poor soil and salt spray with ease. Its neat, low-mounding form is ideal for borders, containers, rock gardens, pathways, and pollinator gardens. Blooming from spring through fall, it attracts butterflies and adds soft color for months.
Growing up to 12 inches tall and spreading as wide as 3 feet, it performs best in full sun in coastal areas or part shade inland. Water moderately to lightly and provide well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA Zone 6.
A hardy, long-flowering native perennial perfect for dry, coastal, and low-maintenance landscapes.
