Tiny green leaves are closely held along thin flexible stems on this quick growing South African shrub. Clusters of sweet smelling, bright yellow daisy flowers appear at the stem tips in late winter and spring. This shrub is valued for its cheery abundance of early season honey-scented flowers. Grow in sun, in reasonably well drained soil with moderate to occasional watering.
