Notes

'Voltage Yellow' African daisy (Dimorphotheca ecklonis 'Voltage Yellow') is an annual for borders, containers, and annual beds. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Yellow flowers appear in spring, summer, and autumn, and butterflies and bees visit them. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. It also tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with Mexican daisy, Lollipop purple top, and Rosemary.
