Ohio State University Plant Dictionary

Scientific Name:
Senecio cineraria

Family:
Dusty Miller

Family:
Asteraceae (also known as Compositae)

Description:
Dusty Miller is generally utilized as a foliage annual, but it will flower sometimes lightly in its first season, and prolifically in its second season if it survives the Winter and therefore becomes a tender perennial. However, its golden flowers are not attractive, and it is best to remove the floral buds and inflorescences as they emerge throughout the growing seasons.
