Feverfew 'Vegmo Snowball'
Matricaria recutita (aka your new favorite filler)

This one’s a serious garden MVP. Feverfew 'Vegmo Snowball' cranks out clusters of tiny white button flowers with creamy yellow centers like it’s getting paid for it. Just one plant = flower city. It’s got a sturdy, upright habit that branches like a boss and keeps pumping out blooms all season long. A bouquet filler through and through, and bonus: the flowers are just right for wire work if you're feeling fancy (or floral-structural).

Details

• Plant type: Hardy annual / Tender perennial

• Height: 28–36 inches

• Site: Full sun

• Days to maturity: 100–110 days

• Spacing: 9 inches

• Pinch: Not necessary (we love a low-maintenance queen)

Growing Tips
Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before your last frost, then transplant outside once Jack Frost packs up and leaves town. Likes to chill early on, so early spring or fall planting = strong performance. Does best in well-drained soil with plenty of sun. Cold hardy in Zones 5+ (unprotected) and Zones 4 and under if you give it some winter armor like a hoop house or frost cloth. No promises, though—we’re not Mother Nature.

Harvest & Vase Life
Snip when 1/4 to 1/2 of the flowers on each spray are open. Heads up: feverfew has a little drama and will muck up its water overnight. Combat this with a few drops of bleach in the vase water. It’ll last about 7–10 days and still look fresh. Not bad for a tiny daisy lookalike.

Why You Want It

• Prolific blooms with that sweet, soft herbal scent

• Beloved by pollinators and edible (though we prefer ours in a vase, not a salad)

• Killer filler for wildflower-style bouquets

• Reliable, tough, and cute as hell

Whether you're growing for the kitchen table or farmers market bouquets, ‘Vegmo Snowball’ shows up and shows out. Just plant it, let it do its thing, and enjoy the flood of button blooms.
