This fast-growing, mounding shrub
occurs in sandy and gravelly soils
over much of the southwestern U.S.
and Mexico. Large, lance-shaped,
gray leaves contrast with the bright
yellow daisy-like flowers produced
in the spring. It is extremely drought
tolerant but in irrigated landscapes it
may become quite lush and larger
than plants existing on rainfall. If
plants are overwatered they may rot
out or become short-lived. The lance
or ovate shaped leaves are a favorite
of aphids, lacebugs and flea beetles.
Plant in full sun and provide good
Drainage.
