Microseris nutans
Nodding Microseris (Microseris nutans) is a delicate native perennial wildflower in the daisy family, producing cheerful yellow dandelion-like blooms that nod gracefully before opening. It thrives in partly shaded to open meadow conditions with average moisture and well-drained soil, making it a lovely addition to native wildflower gardens. Minimal care is needed once established; simply allow it to self-seed naturally for a spreading colony.
