Description
Anthemis tinctoria 'Kelwayi' is a variety also known as False Chamomile or Dyer's Chamomile. This hardy and perennial undershrub displays grey-green fennel-like foliage, from which a multitude of small, bright yellow daisies with dark yellow centres emerges from spring to autumn. Very hardy, easy to grow in well-drained soil, and neat in appearance, this perennial is ideal for rock gardens or sunny slopes.
Anthemis tinctoria belongs to the Asteraceae family and is native to Europe and Asia Minor.
'Kelwayi' is a recent cultivar, forming a medium-sized plant that can reach 50 to 70cm (20 to 28in) in height and 50cm (20in) in width. It has a bushy habit and forms a mound of light foliage in spring. Its growth rate is fast. The abundant flowering takes place from May-June to September-October, if care is taken to regularly remove faded flowers. The flowers resemble small, semi-double daisies, 2cm (1in) wide, with a dark yellow centre. Surrounding them are peripheral, ligulate, female, bright yellow ray florets. The stems are well-branched, with green leaves, and greyish and villous undersides. The dark green foliage is abundant. It is deciduous and aromatic when crushed. This variety easily self-seeds in the garden.
Anthemis plants are sun lovers par excellence, but they fear excessive moisture in winter. Plant them in well-drained, ordinary, slightly acidic, neutral, or strongly calcareous soil. 'Kelwayi' quickly forms beautifully rounded and fully bloomed clumps. It is superb when planted alongside roses or blue-flowering plants such as perennial flax, chicory, bugloss, common borage, and blue or lavender summer asters. It is ideal for starting a new garden after construction work. It can be planted in wildflower meadows alongside simple flowers like snapdragons, wallflowers, baptisias, or common sage. It also works well in well-maintained flower beds, rock gardens, borders, and even in a cutting garden. Its foliage pairs well with grey-foliaged plants like wormwood. It grows very well in pots.
Anthemis tinctoria is a dye plant, from which a yellow dye was once extracted.

Planting and care
Anthemis plants are especially sensitive to excessive moisture during winter. Plant them in full sun in well-drained, slightly acidic, neutral, or strongly calcareous soil. These plants are not very demanding in terms of soil quality. However, their lifespan is shorter in heavy soil, compared to being planted in poor and dry soil. Their cold resistance is greater in dry soil. Pruning the stems to 20cm (8in) from the ground in early September promotes the regrowth of clumps at the end of the season, and may even result in a slight resurgence, enabling them to withstand a rainy winter.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
