Montanoa
grandiflora ~ Daisy Tree
|
| Montanoa grandiflora is a
large shrub or very small tree. The Daisy Tree grows 10-15 feet
tall. The white sweet smelling flowers come on in the late summer
and fall. The seed pods can be used as an interesting dry flower
arrangement addition. I use the Daisy Tree for a quick screen and
for the intense fragrance. Because the leaves are so large Montanoa
grandiflora looks very tropical. Our plants have been damaged by
frost in the middle 20's but have survived into the low 20's. I
generally cut the Daisy tree pretty hard in the winter, leaving 3-5 feet
of trunk and allowing the plants to resprout.
