I will have to check and see if this cute flower will grow in zone 4. I would never have paid attention to this flower had I not watched your very informative video. Thanks!
If it's not hardy, it can be grown as a summer annual too. Just transplant it as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. It always blooms the first season here. Good luck!
I was looking up when to start this & just learned they repel bees! So I guess I'll be planting these in the front yard away from all my flowers and veggies!
Hi Tonya! I came onto TH-cam to search for growing feverfew and found this vid. I followed your link to amazon to purchase the variety you recommended "white wonder " but they were all out. Have you tried winter sowing feverfew? If I can get some I'm thinking of trying it in my WS. Thank you!
I recently tried growing it inside (transplanted a small plant from outdoors) and it was not happy at all:-/ not saying you couldn’t have luck; that was just my experience
Growing feverfew for first time. I'm in Zone 7 & planted out my seedlings last Oct. They are now about 3 & 1/2 ft tall. When they begin blooming, do they continue all through the summer months?
@@syafiqahathirah just proper irrigation like you would for anything that grows in the desert. If you don’t have drip lines, just water by hand. There is no maintenance necessary, it only needs water. It self seeds pretty easily and is hearty through the winter here. Gets into the upper 20’s sometimes in Las Vegas
I'm getting ready to plant my seeds and was wondering about the cold stratification process? Do you just put the seed packet for a week in the refrigerator or do you put the seeds in soil with moisture and then in the refrigerator? new to this. Thank you :)
I always just put the seed packet in the fridge. I'm not certain that feverfew absolutely needs cold treatment, but I always do it just to make sure that I get good germination. Good luck!
No, I start all of my transplants outside. I use a combination of the winter sowing method and unheated low tunnels. There's a more detailed video on my channel about how I start seeds without grow lights. Hope that helps!
So bizarre, my feverfew blooming mass is repelling all the bees, since it is an insecticide like other chrysanthemum family plants containing pyrethrums. I’m looking for folks with a different experience because I have to move or remove the plant out of my pollinator garden. Your variety looks like the double bloom cultivar - perhaps it isn’t as medicinal smelling/strong as the straight up species herb that is used medicinally and what I have growing - with the single daisy like flowers. Thanks.
I don't know how to make mine flower It became very tall and it's in a very good condition but since winter it doesn't want to flower at all Do you have any advice for me ? Sorry for the bad English
@@TONYAwiththeflowers Thank you so much I will wait I recently repotted it in a bigger pot became i noticed it's roots were peeking out of the draining holes .. I also gave it some npk And I'm going to wait .. I live in Egypt and currently the weather is extremely hot , i tried to put it in a more of a shaded area became the sun is so damaging And when it starts to flower I'm gonna tell you Thank you so much 🙏
Great information explained very clearly, thank you! I am planning to grow (most of) my own wedding flowers and feverfew is going to be one of them 😍
Will this grow in zone 5?
Great video!! Im definitely going to use this method! Thanks so much!

Ohhh good to know!
Adding these to my list!
Hooray!
Oh, the ladybird... Very nice video!
Trying to find if I should pinch Feverfew - do you pinch them?
Nice information 👍👌😍💚
My.feverfew foliage looks so different from yours. Mine is super bushy. Haven't seen it bloom yet. Ordered it last year.

Yes! I always winter sow feverfew. 🌱🌱🌱
@@TONYAwiththeflowers thank you! Is this variety still your favorite?
@@Usernameblahblahnblah thank you! I'll be looking at a couple local Nurseries.
Planted Feverfew seeds 2 weeks ago and nothing yet?? They are in a pot and in the south facing window, keeping them moist. What did I do wrong?
Can u grow this from a stem cutting?
What kind of pollinators does this attract?
If I wanted to grow inside do I need a grow light ? Or can I put it in my window ?
I recently tried growing it inside (transplanted a small plant from outdoors) and it was not happy at all:-/ not saying you couldn’t have luck; that was just my experience
This is different feverfew? I only have single layer feverfew
So beautiful. How close did you planted these in your cut flower garden?
I put them pretty close. I'd say about 4-6 inch spacing. I'm hoping to update this video and make a new version this season. Thanks for watching! :)
@@TONYAwiththeflowers thank you. Do you have a book because I'm willing to buy. I've learned so much from your channel.
@@blakesblooms I wish, but I don't. Maybe I can write one, one of these days! :)

@@TONYAwiththeflowers thank you so much!
Is this the same as gypsophila?
Do you start all your transplants indoors with a grow light?
No, I start all of my transplants outside. I use a combination of the winter sowing method and unheated low tunnels. There's a more detailed video on my channel about how I start seeds without grow lights. Hope that helps!
What grow zones will this plant not thrive???

The feverfew doesn't get too many bees. However, they are very attractive to many types of "good" predatory insects. 🌱🌱🌱
Feverfew is supposed to be good for migraines.
That is what I use it for, it works, the flowers in this video is the double blooms which I don't know if they work as well.
Not quite as effective as over the counter drugs but better for the liver.
Once they are turned into hybrids and bred for color, flowers, etc. most of these medicinal plants are messed up from what I’ve read
I don't know how to make mine flower
It became very tall and it's in a very good condition but since winter it doesn't want to flower at all
Do you have any advice for me ?
Sorry for the bad English
If it's healthy, I would just keep waiting. It could be because of day length. 🌱🌱🌱
@@TONYAwiththeflowers
Thank you so much
I will wait
I recently repotted it in a bigger pot became i noticed it's roots were peeking out of the draining holes ..
I also gave it some npk
And I'm going to wait .. I live in Egypt and currently the weather is extremely hot , i tried to put it in a more of a shaded area became the sun is so damaging
And when it starts to flower I'm gonna tell you
Thank you so much 🙏
