Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Centaurea cineraria, also known as dusty miller or silver dust, is a plant in the Asteraceae family that is native to Italy. It grows on coastal cliffs and can reach up to 80 centimeters in height. This species is commonly cultivated for its foliage and can be grown as an annual or perennial. There is confusion in the horticultural world between C. cineraria and the unrelated Jacobaea maritima, with many cultivars being mistakenly identified. C. cineraria has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit in the UK. While it occasionally escapes from cultivation, it has not established itself as an invasive species in North America.
