Blooms are red, pink, white, or purple with very aromatic foliage.  Also called bergamot and used in tea.  Attracts hummingbirds and butterflies.  Spreads aggressively.

Golden yellow blooms with green to dark brown center will grow in clay soil and withstand drought.  Seed heads are attractive to birds.  Petals will sometimes be streaked with red or bronze.  Plants will re-seed themselves as well as come back from the root. 

Diverse group in color and flower shape.  Shasta daisies are white with a yellow center and bloom in June and July.  Fall mums can range in shape from daisy-like forms to pincushion and pompom.  Flowers come in every color except blue and can last from late summer to early winter.
