Anthemis 'Susanna Mitchell'

How to grow Anthemis 'Susanna Mitchell' in NZ

Anthemis 'Susanna Mitchell' grows best in full sun with free draining soil. In NZ it performs particularly well in open sunny positions where airflow is good and excess moisture does not accumulate. Water regularly during establishment, then only during prolonged dry periods once established. Applying mulch around the base helps suppress weeds and retain soil moisture. Avoid heavy or poorly drained soils as these can reduce plant health and flowering performance. This hardy perennial tolerates dry conditions well and thrives in many NZ garden settings.

Anthemis 'Susanna Mitchell' care tips

Anthemis 'Susanna Mitchell' is relatively easy to care for and benefits from regular deadheading to encourage ongoing flowering. Trim plants lightly after major flowering flushes to maintain a compact tidy shape and promote fresh growth. Water during extended dry periods, especially while plants are establishing. Feed with a balanced fertiliser during spring to support healthy foliage and flower production. Annual mulching helps retain moisture and improve soil conditions. Good drainage and full sun are important for long term plant health and strong flowering performance.
