I would like to know what this plant is, please. It was photographed
in the hills of Sintra in Portugal last October. *It is hummocky and
bush-like but not very tall. *I am thinking *some sort of Anthemis but
not at all sure. *I am growing a number of seedlings from it but it
may be years before it flowers.

It's Erigeron karvinskianus. *It will flower very early on in its life.

By jingo I believe you are right! Just looked at Google images and
it looks about perfect. Many thanks Spider.
