Feverfew Seeds

Feverfew seeds grow and blossom into a celebrated medicinal herb that is sometimes known as “Bachelor’s Button” or “Wild Chamomile.” Parthenium integrifolium is well-regarded for its potent health benefits, and some find it to be especially useful for migraine relief. Feverfew has lovely white flowers with yellow centers that resemble daisies. It is a hardy perennial plant, enjoying full sun to partial shade and well-drained soils. Feverfew, with its small, bushy nature and simple white blossoms, is also a delightful addition to your outdoor space.

INTRODUCING FEVERFEW SEEDS

Feverfew has been in use for a long time in herbal medicine, with use dating back to Ancient Greece. Its leaves and flowers contain compounds that demonstrate anti-inflammatory properties. Feverfew is very adaptable, growing well in many climates. It can be grown in USDA hardiness zones 5 to 10 as a perennial plant. This is a versatile herb, ideal for medicinal herb gardens.

PLANTING FEVERFEW SEEDS

Sow feverfew seeds indoors in late winter to prepare seedlings for spring arrival. They can be sown directly in the garden in spring or fall. Plant the seeds just beneath the soil surface, allowing them access to light for proper germination. Maintain the soil moist until germination, which should begin at 10-14 days. Seedlings should be thinned out or transplanted to stand 12-18 inches apart, allowing full growth and spread.

MAINTAINING FEVERFEW PLANTS

Relatively low in maintenance, the feverfew plant requires little care once established. It can be tolerant of some shading, especially in hotter areas, but prefers full sun. Water the plants regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. Trim off dry blooms to encourage continued blooming. This is a good practice if you wish to prevent self-seeding as well.

With Survival Garden Seeds' feverfew seeds, it’s possible to cultivate a powerful herb. In addition to medicinal feverfew benefits, it’s a perfect candidate to introduce to your home, adding beauty and cottage garden charm as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques. You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

How do I know my seeds are fresh?

Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.

Are your seeds chemically treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our seeds. All of our garden seeds are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

Will your seeds grow in my USDA Hardiness zone?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these garden seeds?

Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO, heirloom varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.
