The chocolate daisy is a charming plant with small yellow daisy blooms that emit a delightful chocolate scent. This species is particularly resilient, thriving in harsh, arid conditions and poor, gravelly soils, making it a unique addition to xeric gardens, dry slopes, and wildflower meadows. To promote healthy growth and encourage new flowers, it is recommended to shear the plant after its first flush of bloom. This native perennial is capable of blooming in its first year if started from early sowing indoors.
