Senecio obovata – Squaw Weed
A fast-spreading Missouri and Illinois evergreen native, Squaw Weed, Senecio obovata, delights us with a sea of small yellow daisies. Plants bloom over a long period in spring. Fluffy white seed heads follow creating another showy display. Its evergreen foliage makes an excellent ground cover.
An easy-to-grow perennial for shade to part shade. Also know as Packera obovata. Tough as nails, it thrives in the most challenging spots like dry shade. Being an evergreen, it makes an ideal ground cover, especially in those hard-to-reach areas where you don’t want to drag the hose or mower. It is a good choice for rain gardens and naturalized areas.
A featured plant of the Missouri Prairie Foundation Grow Native Pollinator Buffet program, a collection of plants that have been identified as being important to pollinators. See all the Pollinator Buffet plants here >>>
