Craspedia globosa ‘Golf Beauty’ (Billy Buttons) is an evergreen perennial forming a narrow rosette of silver-green linear foliage covered in woolly hairs. Blooming year-round in warm climates, a profusion of cute golden-yellow flowers resembling small golf balls, 1 in. across (2.5 cm), are borne atop stiff flower stalks reaching 2-3 ft. (60-90 cm). Hardy to 20ºF (-6ºC), Billy Buttons are fairly undemanding, pest and disease resistant, and their eye-catching shape adds interest to the sunny garden or to a table arrangement.
