Acroclinium (Paper Daisy)
Botanical Name: Rhodanthe chlorocephala subsp. rosea
Type: Half-Hardy Annual

Acroclinium, also known as Paper Daisy, is a charming annual with papery, daisy-like blooms in lovely shades of rose, pink, and white, each with a bright yellow centre. These lightweight, shimmering flowers float above slender stems and feathery foliage, creating a soft, meadow-like effect in borders or containers. Ideal for cut flowers and dried arrangements, Paper Daisies retain their colour and shape beautifully when dried — a true staple in everlasting bouquets.
