Copper Canyon Daisy

Copper Canyon Daisy is a plant I came across this weekend while visiting my boyfriend at work. He is a foreman for high end landscaping company and knows a lot about plants. This one is one of his favorites because of it’s sweet smell. It is part of the Asteraceae family and its scientific name is Compositae Tagetes Iemonii. It is native to the Arizona/New Mexico region, but does very well with Texas native plants because of its tolerance to drought-like conditions. It grows into perennial shrub and is known to attract butterflies!
