The āNative Starā Starry Rosin Flower is a robust perennial and re-seeding Florida native wildflower with branched stems that grow between 1 to 2 feet tall. Flowers can be enjoyed most of the year with cheerful, large flowerheads with bright yellow ray florets surrounding a center of yellow to green disks. Bristly-haired stems extend upward towards the sky as if reaching for the sun. Its bright showy flowers attract a variety of butterflies, native bees and other pollinators. Seeds are an important food source for songbirds.
āNative Starā Starry Rosin Flower grows best in dry to moist, well-drained soils with full sun to partial shade. It is one of the easiest wildflowers to grow due to its low maintenance and adaptability to a variety of environmental conditions. They look great in casual gardens when planted in groups of 3 or more. Meadows allow for a blanket of yellow to sway in the wind with an air of whimsy.
