Striking yellow fern-like foliage makes for a dramatic addition to the landscape. Excellent color that goes well with almost any plant. Small, yellow, flat flowers appear in mid to late summer, which are not particularly showy; however, the colorful foliage definitely attracts attention and is also fragrant. Tansy is also deer resistant and the leaves look great in floral arrangements. Formerly known as Chrysanthemum vulgare. Brighten up your flowerbeds with a splash of 'Isla Gold'!
