Field Notes

Description:

Member of the daisy family (asteracea). Ground cover that hugs the ground in mats. Leaves are long, thin, and sword-like (about an inch to two inches long) and grow in loose, flat 'rosettes'. Leaves are dark green on the top and silver on the bottom and edges, so it looks like someone had painted the leaves with whiteout. Flowers in the spring. Flowers are yellow and daisy type but look like dandelions. They grow close to the plant, not above it on stalks. Succulent from Australia.

Habitat:

Garden. Growing between flagstone pavers in a walkway.
