Notes

'Goldilocks Rocks' Arizona beggarstick (Bidens aurea 'Goldilocks Rocks') is an annual for borders, containers, and xeriscape. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Yellow flowers appear in summer and again in autumn, and they draw butterflies and bees. Deer rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Vinca, Profusion zinnia, and White velvet.
