Plant in full sun in a well-drained soil. It is drought tolerant but looks better with occasional irrigation. Plants in our demonstration garden were tip damaged after 3 consecutive nights down to 25° F in the January 2007 freeze and resprouted after a stock plant was frozen to the ground when it dropped to18° F in the December 1990 freeze.

Globularia x indubia is the naturally occurring hybrid between two species. Globularia sarcophylla and Globularia salicina, whose ranges overlap in the Tirajana region of Gran Canaria Island. The Globe Daisies are so named because they appear to be small round daisies but were long considered to be in there own own family, the Globulariaceae, which has been more recently merged into the huge and ever growing Plantain family, the Plantaginaceae. The name for the genus comes from the Latin 'globulus' which in the diminutive form of 'globus' meaning "round head" or "sphere" in reference to the rounded shape of the flower heads. We have sold this plant since 1991 from plants that were first grown from seed received from the Huntington Botanic Garden. 

The information about Globularia x indubia that is displayed on this web page is based on research conducted in our nursery's horticultural library and from reliable online resources. We will also include observations made about this plant as it grows in our nursery gardens and other gardens that we have visited, as well how the crops have performed in containers in our nursery field. We also incorporate comments that we receive from others and welcome hearing from anyone with additional information, particularly if they share cultural information that aids others growing this plant.
