\"\"Erigeron speciousus<\/em> is a showy drought tolerant member of\u00a0the Aster family.\u00a0 Known commonly as showy, or aspen, fleabane daisy, this versatile and carefree\u00a0plant is an excellent choice for any garden.\u00a0 Native from British Columbia down through Northwest Oregon and throughout the\u00a0inter-mountain west south to New Mexico and Arizona, showy fleabane grows in open woods, thickets, and forest clearings in full sun to partial shade.\u00a0 It can tolerate coastal salty conditions provided drainage and can withstand an astonishing 40F below zero.\u00a0 In Latin, speciousus<\/em> means “pretty” and this specimen lives up to its name.\u00a0 The attractive flowers appear as yellow-orange discs surrounded by a whorl of many narrow pink to lavender rays.\u00a0\u00a0Each 1\/2 to 2 1\/2 foot shoot produces up to a dozen flower heads which attract butterflies and persist through the summer.\u00a0 \"\"Erigeron\u00a0speciousus<\/em> is quite easily grown and is\u00a0an excellent choice for\u00a0perennial borders or for a sunny spot\u00a0anywhere in the garden.\u00a0 The genus name Erigeron<\/em> is derived from the Greek eri-early and geron-old man, referring to the appearance of white hairs on the fruit soon after flowering.\u00a0 Deriving its common name from the belief that the dried plants repelled fleas,\u00a0 showy fleabane has many ethnobotanical uses. Recent studies suggest that the above ground portions of the plant can be steam distilled and the extract can be used as an organic anti-fungal application against certain plant pathogens.\"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
