Are the flowers held singly or are they several to a stem?  If several to a stem then perhaps Senecio fremontii??

Maggi, thank you for your quick identification.
The 3 flowers are all to one stem, so I also think, that
Senecio fremontii is the correct name

I get the impression that there are not too many people growing these American Senecio species. They seem interesting plants.
