This genus includes more than 250 species, mostly native to the American continent. This variety is very popular due to its abundant yellow flowering. The flowers are small, in an intense yellow tone, and production is continuous between February and October. It is a plant that is very well adapted to our climate, widely used in beds as it provides excellent ground cover (it is a low-growing plant that rarely exceeds 40cm in height). It is also a fantastic option for planters, borders, rock gardens and hanging baskets. Besides being extremely ornamental, with intense flowering that extends from early spring until autumn, the flowers are very attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinators, contributing to biodiversity balance. <\/p>\n

Watering<\/strong>: Moderate to frequent in warmer months\u2014especially if potted\u2014to ensure hydration during peak flowering (avoid standing water in saucers or non-draining decorative pots).

Fertilization<\/strong>: Use fertilizer suitable for outdoor plants in spring-summer to promote flowering.
Soil<\/strong>: Prefers soils\/substrates rich in organic matter and, above all, well-drained. Does not tolerate waterlogged soils, which can cause root rot.
Pruning<\/strong>: Light pruning – to remove dead\/wilted flowers, keep the plant compact, beautiful and healthy.
Pet-friendly<\/strong>: No adverse effects are known in domestic animals. Although it is considered a safe plant, monitoring is recommended in the case of pets that eat large quantities of any plant, which may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. <\/p>\n
