Dusty miller: A dependable choice for Louisiana’s cool-season gardens
Dusty miller, a 2025 Louisiana Super Plant, is a tough plant that brings striking visual and textural contrast to the garden. It is a great choice for borders like this one, which also features Jolt series dianthus.
With eye-catching, silvery foliage that’s velvet-soft to the touch, dusty miller is a unique plant.
Add to that the fact that it’s easy to care for and readily survives frosty winter temperatures, and you’ve got a recipe for a winning plant for cool-season landscapes.
That was the thinking of LSU AgCenter horticulturists when they named dusty miller a Louisiana Super Plant for 2025.
