Description
General Herb Information
Tansy - Two varieties are discussed here: one the Common (Tanacetum vulgare) or coarse, tall plant found in field and along roadsides; the other the Fern-leaved (T. vulgare var. crispum) with rich green, more delicate foliage, fewer and larger "buttons."
Propagation: By seed, self-sows freely; by root division.
Nature of Plant: Common Tansy useful hedge for a garden if flower heads are cut off before going to seed, stalks require staking against wind and rain, unless in a protected spot; Fern-leaved Tansy not so coarse as Common and most beautiful for flower borders, grows to about 3 feet, very decorative foliage with orange "buttons" for vivid contrast.
Spacing of Mature Plants: Common about 4 feet; Fern-leaved 2 1/2 feet.
Cultural Requirements: Will adapt themselves to any soil or location not too wet; both spread rapidly into large clumps.
