What is Senecio cineraria

Senecio cineraria , called as Dusty miller, Senecio or Shirotaegiku (scientific name: Senecio cineraria) is a Mediterranean native and is a cold tolerant evergreen perennial plant of the family Asteraceae. The leaves are green, but the white hairs are dense on the surface and look silver white. As foliage plants, silver leaves with a deep cut than flowers are admired.
