Blanketing itself in lavender-purple flowers with golden centers from spring through late summer, it is native to the bluffs, dunes, and rocky slopes of California and Oregon. Its thick, bluish-green glaucous leaves are perfectly adapted to withstand salt spray, coastal winds, and dry summers. Spreading steadily by rhizomes to form a dense, flowering mat, it is an outstanding low-water groundcover for sunny coastal gardens where other plants might struggle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"padding-left: 20px; list-style-position: outside;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProlific Season-Long Bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lavender-purple daisy flowers appear from April through August, providing flushes of new blooms and months of rich garden color.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoastal Tough:\u003c\/strong\u003e Native to exposed bluffs and dunes, this perennial thrives in salt spray, coastal wind, and sandy soils where few plants can compete.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow Groundcover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spreading rhizomes fill in along garden edges and sunny slopes with a dense, weed-suppressing mat just 6–12 inches tall.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator-Friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abundant flowers attract native bees, small butterflies, and beneficial insects throughout the long bloom season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural Habitat Look:\u003c\/strong\u003e The blue-green foliage and lavender flowers beautifully evoke the natural California and Oregon coastlines, making it ideal for naturalistic coastal plantings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEco-Friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grown non-GMO and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/content.gardenforwildlife.com\/learn\/neonicotinoids-kill-butterflies-thats-why-we-dont-use-them\"\u003eneonicotinoid-free\u003c\/a\u003e to ensure a healthy ecosystem for your local wildlife.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur plants ship in 3-inch pots, have a developed root mass, and emerging foliage around 2-5 inches high.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Choose Seaside Daisy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eSeaside Daisy pairs lasting garden beauty with real ecological benefit.
