Old names such as Buttons describes the round tight flowers of golden yellow. Spreading in growth, it is best where it won't swamp any prized perennial specimens. In excess, it is easily pulled up. Thrives in hot, dry spots where nothing else will grow. The brilliant fresh-green leaves are a delight, with finely cut and curled edges.
