Pyrethrum, also known as the White and Yellow Spanish Camomile or Anthemis pyrethrum, is a versatile flowering plant that belongs to the daisy family, and is often confused with other similar species such as Scentless Mayweed (Tripleurospermum inodorum), Gaillardia, and Pyrethrum species. One of its most popular varieties is the Persian Chrysanthemum or Tanacetum coccineum. With its vibrant colors and delicate petals, it adds a touch of elegance to any garden. Another variation of this beautiful flower is the Tanacetum cinerariifolium, commonly referred to as Pyrethrum. The Spanish Chamomile or Mount Atlas Daisy (Anacyclus pyrethrum) is another member of this diverse family. Its small white flowers are not only visually appealing but also possess medicinal properties that have been used for centuries. If you're looking for a unique addition to your garden, consider the Painted Daisy (Chrysanthemum coccineum var). Its striking red and yellow blooms will surely catch everyone's attention.
