We originally grew this plant as part of a research project, to provide a supply of a compound of possible medicinal value, and have continued to grow it for its decorative value. It is a herbaceous plant for a place that is not too dry, and has large, rounded leaves, with tall spires of bright yellow daisy flowers.
