Please can anyone identify this for me?!

We bought this perennial a few years ago. It does well in our garden and we want more of it... however, I can seem to find it in the local garden centres and I can't seem to identify myself. Ideas?

    @aecoombs Looks like Chamomile to me.

    Building a garden is very personal. It's not quite the same as installing a boiler.

    Wow that's amazing! That's very much, I think you're right!

    You could go for straight up “chamomile” plants or Google “Anthemis” and look at the different colours etc 

    I have one called Lemon Ice and it flowers for months and months. 

    I’ve bought another two recently to go in a new bed. 👍🏼

    Thanks, that's really helpful. We live by the coast and we're 100 metres above sea level. We've tried alot of plants that just don't handle the wind. So we love the ones that can. It appears Chamomile is one!

    @aecoombs For the first time this year my local GC has an area just for wild flowers.
    I think that is why you may have struggled to find it in the past.
    It must be difficult to find plants for your location. What works in one coastal spot might not in another, you could look at gardens local to you for ideas.
