| Ursinia sericea
This is a stunning shrublet from South Africa, a great combination
of silver & gold. Many of you have enjoyed this plant
growing in one of our nursery beds for a while. Now we are
finally able to offer it for sale. The finely cut foliage
is very silvery, almost white. The flowers are a bright golden-yellow
on super long stalks. It’s fun to watch the flowers
open. When they are in bud the stalk is bent at the neck &
the bud hangs down. As the flower matures, they fling their
faces up, straightening to the sun. The entire plant gets
to be about 3’ tall & wide & blooms for months.
It can take dry conditions but regular water makes it look
better. Good drainage is a must.
