Hi everyone,

Can you help me identify this plant? I swear it spread and flopped overnight (probably not, but sure seems that way).

For next year, wondering what I can do to prevent this flopping. There are 2 large bushes of the same plant right next to each other, behind a large crepe myrtle. Now that these have flopped, they're covering other plants that are probably too closely planted.

I purchased the home late March and figured I'd give it a full year to see what comes out of the ground.

Thank you!

Montauk Daisy is what it's called at nurseries around here. Make sure you cut it back often through June, not at all after that.

Montauk Daisy (Nipponanthemum nipponicum)

No harm trying to tie it up but it probably won't thrill you.
