Nursery contributed plant descriptions
It was so fun waiting for this unusual West Coast native to bloom! The 3’ tall, base-branching erect stems bear linear leaves that are velvety soft, excellent for petting! And the foliage and flowers are heavily scented of pineapple. THEN it blooms in late summer, bearing a profusion of showy yellow daisies with a maroon inner ring. “A keeper!” Said we.
