POPULAR:
Although silver dust is an old-fashioned plant that has been around garden centers for decades, the drought tolerance and pest-free nature of this plant make it worth revisiting for busy gardeners who want to add dazzle without fuss to their landscapes.

Once mature, dusty miller can get up to 2 feet tall and wide.
CARE:
Dusty miller likes full sun locations, isn't picky about soil type but needs well-draining soil, and should only need to be watered once a week once established

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has devised a system to provide gardeners with a basic guide to plant hardiness – how much winter cold a plant can withstand. The Hardiness Zone Map system divides the United States and Canada into numbered zones based on lowest average winter temperature. Even within a zone, different micro-climates exist, such as large urban areas which may be warmer or land situated at different elevations.
How Hardy Are These Plants?: Zones 8-11
