We have a small flowered, single, white Argyranthemum we're trying to ID.
Either Ray got it from Tresco or he's been given it. It's a very simple
and charming little thing with a 'fluffy' centre which is a sort of
yellow/rusty pink colour. The flower is about 1" across so is
probably/possibly an A. frutescens? Am I on the right track with that?
It's tender, very simple, very lovely, IMO. Any ideas that will help to
ID it will be very welcome.

Google is my mentor :-)

Thanks, Bill - pretty isn't it, grown like that? But no, that's not
it. I've looked at Google but didn't have a lot of time for that
today. The centre of this isn't yellow, though there's some yellow in
it. I think all the flowers have been cut back now but if I find one
tomorrow, I'll photograph it.
