Pearly Everlasting (Anaphalis margaritacea) is a lovely, long-lasting plant with silvery foliage topped with small yellow flowers enclosed in a white bract. These blooms will appear in June and last all the way through September! They are striking when paired with bright flowers or placed in front of sandstone or colored garden elements in garden beds or borders, xeric gardens, cottage gardens, natural prairie or meadow gardens, or cut flower gardens. Pearly Everlasting is highly tolerable of urban environments and pollution. Blooms are also durable when dried, and make attractive additions to flower arrangements. Pearly Everlasting is the host plant of the American Lady butterfly, which creates a silky web around the plant to feed. If left alone, the caterpillars will complete their metamorphosis in 3 weeks or so and the plant will quickly rebound and continue blooming. Pearly Everlasting spreads through rhizomes quickly where conditions are favorable so do not overwater or fertilize this plant! Planting in a container can control its spread.
