Catches the eye of almost every nursery visitor with its unusual small silver-gray leaves on erect stems.  After four years in cultivation we have yet to see its white daisylike flowers.  Perhaps this year.  It has increased slowly to a size of about  5”tall x 6” wide.   We have had good luck growing it in a trough with sharp soil and regular water in a cool sunny location. It has done fine in the cold months when temperatures have dropped into the teens.   Asteraceaee

Update #1: After 4 years, we have full bloom!  Take a look.

Update #2: Year 5 & 6, unfortunately, the seeds produced have not germinated.  Fortunately, the plants divide well and we can now offer them for sale.  This is a true alpine with all the highs and lows!
