A compact selection of Santa Barbara Daisy that forms a tidy mound of white flowers ageing to pink. Grows up to a foot tall and wide depending on conditions. Like other Erigeron karvinskianus, it performs best with 3-4 times per year pruning to maintain a fresh appearance. Will bloom for long periods from spring through fall. Once colder temperatures arrive, the foliage tends to darken, plants reduce in size, and blooming reduces or ceases. Although typically carries a common name of Santa Barbara daisy, the plant is not native to California. The following information was submitted by the patent holder: "A new cultivar of Erigeron named ‘Spindrift’ that is distinguishable by medium green foliage, a compact mounding habit and small daisy-like flowers that range in color from dark purple to lilac-pink and white. In combination these traits set ‘Spindrift’ apart from all other existing varieties of Erigeron known to the inventor."
