Helichrysum argyrophyllum

Helichrysum argyrophyllum is a tough and beautiful groundcover. Awesome for spilling over rocks, walls or for edging and containers, the small glistening, almost metallic, ever-silvery leaves and stems of this South African native construct a solid, trailing and ground-hugging mat. And even awesomer, from mid-Summer thru Fall it almost covers itself with showy little canary-yellow “strawflowers” that last for months and make fun dried flowers! Grow in poor, well-drained soil (no clay). HEAT, FROST and DROUGHT TOLERANT! Deer resistant. To 3”x36”.
