Parthenium integrifolium / Wild Quinine

Long-lasting white flowers all summer long! Parthenium integrifolium (Wild Quinine) grows to 120 cm and has dense white flowers on a sturdy stem.

Wild quinine is commonly found in dry areas of grasslands and open woods. The leaves were used medicinally as a tea to reduce fevers (known as Wild Quinine and American Feverfew.) Beetles feed on the pollen, while other insects seek out the nectar. The flowers also attract bees, wasps, flies, and beetles.

Can withstand long periods without water due to its long taproot.

Cold stratification required. Ensure soil contact. Keep moist.
