*This plant is not currently in production, but the page is preserved for informational purposes.

This herbaceous evergreen perennial is native to Arizona and northern Mexico. Highly aromatic, fine-textured medium green leaves are arranged on brittle stems. Electric yellow-orange daisy-like flowers provide intense fall color. Cut back hard in late winter to remove frost-damaged foliage and promote dense growth. Plant in full sun to part shade.
