Wedelia

Wedelia (Wedelia trilobata) is an herbaceous perennial that’s hardy in zones 8 through 11 and will perform well in virtually any soil! Wedelia care is extremely low maintenance. It will grow and thrive almost anywhere as long as the weather is warm enough. The plant is very tough and can handle pruning almost down to the ground. Whenever wedelia stems touch the ground, they take root which means the plant has an extremely aggressive spreading habit. Yellow, daisy-like flowers will cover the plant from summer to frost! Grown here at Creekside Nursery in a one gallon container.
