Four-nerve Daisy, Hymenoxys, Stemmy Four-nerve Daisy, Yellow Daisy, Perky Sue, Bitterweed, Hymenoxys scaposa
A small southwestern native, Tetraneuris scaposa (Four-Nerve Daisy) is a compact, clump-forming, evergreen perennial forming a mat of small, grassy, blue-green leaves. Blooming throughout the year under the right conditions, with peaks in spring and early summer, masses of cheerful yellow daisy flowers to 1 in. (2.5 cm) are carried singly on silky, leafless stems a few inches above the foliage mound. Butterflies are attracted to the blossoms, but deer tend to avoid them. Tough, heat, and drought tolerant, Four-Nerve Daisy is particularly desirable because it often blooms throughout the winter months. Ideal for sunny rock gardens, borders, and containers and is a perfect species for xeric gardens.
