Description:
Pulicaria crispa is an aromatic annual or short-lived herb belonging to the daisy family (Asteraceae). It is native to dry regions of Africa, the Middle East and parts of South Asia. The plant has strongly aromatic, wrinkled or curly leaves and produces small yellow, daisy-like flower heads. It is well adapted to hot, dry climates and is commonly found in deserts, rocky areas and disturbed ground.
 
Germination tips:
Sow the tiny seeds on the surface of a well-draining seed mix and press them gently into the soil rather than covering them deeply. Keep the medium lightly moist, warm and well ventilated. Germination usually occurs in 1–3 weeks. Provide bright light after emergence and avoid excessive watering.
