'''Feverfew''' (''Tanacetum parthenium''; [[synonymy|syn.]] ''Chrysanthemum parthenium'' ([[Carl Linnaeus|L.]]) [[Pers.]], ''Pyrethrum parthenium'' [[Sm.]]) is a traditional [[Herbalism|medicinal herb]] which is found in many old gardens, and is also occasionally grown for ornament. The plant grows into a small bush up to around {{convert|46|cm|in|abbr=on}} high, with citrus-scented leaves and is covered by flowers reminiscent of daisies. It spreads rapidly, and they will cover a wide area after a few years. It is also commonly seen in the literature by its synonyms, ''Chrysanthemum parthenium'' (L.) Bernh. and ''Pyrethrum parthenium'' (L.) Sm. Feverfew is native to the [[Balkan Peninsula]], [[Anatolia]] and the [[Caucasus]]. ==Cultivation== A perennial herb, which should be planted in full sun, {{convert|38|to(-)|46|cm|in|abbr=on}} apart and grows up to {{convert|61|cm|in|abbr=on}} tall. It is hardy to [[USDA]] zone 5 ({{convert|-30|°C|°F|0}}) and should be cut back to the ground in the fall. Outside of its native range it can become an [[invasive plant|invasive weed]]. ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Varieties== ==Gallery== <gallery perrow=5> Image:Upload.png| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <references/>    ==External links== *{{wplink}} {{stub}} __NOTOC__
