Cirrus Dusty Miller

Grown primarily for its foliage, this cultivar features the typical silver-grey leaves, but they are shallowly lobed all along the leaf edge. Historically used extensively in mass bedding designs the Dusty Miller cultivars still have their uses in container, basket, and annual plantings in the Chicago area. Full sun, well-drained soils, and warm to hot temperatures are key to success.
