An unpretentious ground cover perennial 8-10 cm high with a very pretty appearance - the leaves are covered with fluffy hairs, giving the plant a grayish-silver hue.
The flowers are collected in inflorescences-baskets up to 1 cm in diameter, it looks very atypical and spectacular, retaining its decorative effect throughout the season.
