Packera glabella
Packera glabella
Butterweed (Packera glabella) is a cheerful native wildflower with bright yellow daisy-like blooms that light up moist woodland edges and floodplain gardens in spring. It thrives in consistently moist to wet soils and partial shade, making it ideal for rain gardens or low-lying areas. Little maintenance is required — it self-seeds easily and naturalizes well in suitable conditions.
