Notes
Golden shrub daisy (Euryops pectinatus) is a shrub for borders, containers, and accents, and it needs little care. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average soil of most types. Yellow flowers appear in every season and draw butterflies and bees. The gray-green foliage stays on the plant all year.
Pairs well with Bird of paradise, Cape rush, Narrow-leaf chalksticks, and Flame African daisy.
