Erigeron glaucus, commonly known as seaside daisy, is a low-growing, evergreen perennial prized for its compact form and charming lavender flowers with sunny yellow centers. Native to coastal bluffs and dunes of California and Oregon, this versatile plant thrives in sandy, well-draining soils and tolerates salt spray, making it an excellent choice for coastal landscapes and habitat restoration projects. Its dense mat of foliage provides valuable erosion control, while its long-lasting blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, supporting local ecosystems. Perfect for rock gardens, borders, and container plantings, Erigeron glaucus is also drought-tolerant once established and pairs beautifully with other coastal natives for a natural, seaside aesthetic.
