Description
Tetraneuris scaposa, commonly known as Four-Nerve Daisy, is a resilient perennial native to the south-central United States and northern Mexico, prized for its bright yellow, daisy-like flowers that bloom profusely from spring through fall. This low-growing, drought-tolerant plant features distinctive narrow leaves marked by four prominent veins, lending it its common name. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Four-Nerve Daisy is often used in xeriscaping and naturalized garden settings due to its ability to withstand heat and dry conditions while attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Its long blooming period and adaptability make it an excellent choice for rock gardens, borders, and prairie-style landscapes. Recognized for its ecological value and ornamental appeal, Tetraneuris scaposa contributes to sustainable gardening practices by promoting biodiversity and reducing the need for supplemental watering.
