Silver Swirl Dusty Miller is an evergreen herbaceous perennial that forms a small uniform mound of velvety silver-white lobed foliage with waved edges. The yellow flowers bloom beginning in the second year in the South, but are usually removed to encourage foliage growth. Flowers best in full sun and evenly moist, well-drained soils. Drought tolerant.
