Description
Pallenis maritima 'Asmago' or Maritime Daisy is a small, not very hardy perennial, more or less spreading, which particularly likes limestone rockeries. It produces flowers similar to bright yellow daisies for months, from spring to autumn. This plant appreciates rocky and somewhat inhospitable places so much that it reseeds itself with enthusiasm, dotting the steps of stairs, cracks in walls, dry edges, or arid slopes with light and lovely tufts. From its Mediterranean origins, it retains a taste for coastal arid environments and perfectly withstands spray.
Pallenis maritima 'Asmago' is native to the Canary Islands, the Mediterranean, and the nearby Atlantic. It belongs to the large Asteraceae family, as evidenced by its inflorescences (which we call flowers) organized in daisy-like heads. It is a perennial plant with flexible and branched stems, forming a low and dense mass, more or less spreading, 25cm (10in) tall and 40cm (16in) wide. The stems are densely covered with blue-green leaves, alternate, narrow, and covered with a whitish down. They persist in winter down to -5°C (23°F) to -7°C (19.4°F) in well-drained soil. Flowering begins in May-June depending on the regions and continues until September. The plant produces 3 to 4cm (1 to 2in) diameter flower heads in a bright yellow colour, centered around a small yellow heart. Once pollinated by insects, the flowers give way to seeds with white bristles that will be dispersed by the wind. They will easily germinate along paths, between paving stones, in the gaps of dry stone walls... It is a generous and very easy to grow plant, but it is sensitive to severe frost.
A sun-loving perennial, preferring somewhat arid places abandoned by other plants, it forms absolutely delightful ground covers. Plant Pallenis maritima 'Asmago' along pathways, in rockeries, above or along a wall. For example, pair it with Nepeta racemosa, Geranium sanguineum, Stipa pennata, Thymus capitatus, beautiful low-growing plants that appreciate the same environments and also tolerate summer drought.

Planting and care
Plant Pallenis maritima in March in our cool regions, or in September-October in our warm and dry regions during summer. Choose a sunny location. This perennial clearly prefers calcareous or neutral soils, very well-drained, even rocky, stony or sandy. It appreciates rockeries and willingly settles in the cracks of walls if its roots can find some depth of freshness. Once well established, this plant can completely do without watering in summer, even in the Mediterranean South, very dry in summer. You can optionally cut the faded flowers to extend the flowering period. Easy to grow, it requires no particular care, but it fears excess moisture in winter. You can easily divide the clumps in spring. Spontaneous sowings are not uncommon in light soil, in the crevices of walls... The hardiness of this plant is around -5 to -7°C (23 to 19.4°F) at its coldest, in a soil that does not retain water.

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.
