Title: Help needed
Post by: shelagh on June 13, 2009, 04:04:57 PM

I was taking some pictures of the rock garden the other day and saw this.  it's a 'lost label plant' and we've had it a while, but I can't for the life of me think what it's called.  Can anyone help?

No, Ursinia. Keep it trimmed back because it will go woody and only flower at the stem tips
