Robinson’s Mix Painted Daisy (Tanacetum coccineum ‘Robinson’s Mix’)

Robinson’s Mix Painted Daisy (Tanacetum coccineum ‘Robinson’s Mix’) is a vibrant perennial blend known for its brightly coloured daisy-like flowers in shades of pink, red, rose, and white with contrasting yellow centres. Blooming in early to mid-summer, this cheerful perennial provides bold colour and attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

The fern-like green foliage creates a soft, textured appearance that complements the vivid blooms. The upright stems make Robinson’s Mix an excellent choice for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and cut flower arrangements. When planted in groups, the colourful flowers create a striking meadow-style display.

In Alberta, painted daisies thrive in full sun with well-drained soil and moderate moisture. They prefer cooler summer conditions and benefit from deadheading to encourage additional blooming and maintain a tidy appearance throughout the season.
