Description
Bidens ferulifolia is a lush and remarkably floriferous container plant. Forming a bushy and trailing clump, it is covered in a multitude of bright golden yellow flowers, slightly scented, resembling small sunflowers with eight petals. They bloom from summer until frost, densely packed on a small, deeply cut foliage of bright green. This less hardy perennial thrives as a ground cover in borders or rockeries, planted in the ground in mild climates. Elsewhere, it is grown as an annual, in full sun, in moist but well-drained soil.
Bidens ferulifolia, also known as Fernleaf Bidens, is a perennial annual (semi-hardy in very mild climates) from the Asteraceae family, native to Mexico and Arizona. Its lifespan is brief, but its growth is very rapid. The plant forms a large cushion of leafy stems, 40 cm (16in) tall and 50 to 60 cm (20 to 24in) wide. Its long flowering period begins in June and lasts until the first autumn frosts. The plant produces large flowers, reaching 5 cm (2in) in diameter, carried on slender axillary peduncles, and composed of eight bright yellow petals arranged around a yellow centre that turns brownish at maturity. They emit a light fragrance evoking that of honey. The foliage is very dense and particularly ornamental, consisting of small leaves divided into very narrow linear segments, of a very vibrant green colour.
Bidens grow very quickly and are very floriferous. They are not demanding in terms of water and are particularly suited to pot cultivation, hanging baskets, rockeries, or summer borders. They happily coexist with other annuals such as Lobelia, Bacopa, and Diascia, allowing for multiple colour combinations. For example, they pair perfectly with red balcony geraniums, Surfinia, or petunias in shades of purple, or with salvias offering blue flowers.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
