Description
Ever blooming native wildflower from the Southwest that produces a continuous succession of dark-eyed, yellow daisies over a compact rosette of foliage. The flowers exude a rich chocolate aroma in the morning hours. Best with minimal water once established. Can reseed. Perennial. Xeriscape.
Surely one of the toughest perennials for the region: median strips should be planted to this in combination with Callirhoe involucrata: spectacular color all summer with no supplemental irrigation once established! Who will do it first?
