Why no garden should be without this bright ornamental plant

As time passes, I have come to regard the African bush daisy (Euryops pectinatus) as an ornamental plant that no Southern California garden should be without – and not only because it’s one of my wife’s favorite plants. Euryops is a splendid, spherical, sun-loving shrub that grows 4 to 5 feet tall, with lacy grayish leaves and a capacity to flower nonstop.

It’s not that Euryops daisy is a stunning plant or just plain beautiful. In fact, many people would not plant it at all because of its brash, yellow 2-inch-diameter daisies.
