Seaside Woolly Sunflower
Seaside Woolly Sunflower, also named lizard tail, is a compact shrub that grows to about 3′ tall and 3′ wide. It is perfect in a coastal garden, and picture perfect partnered with coastal Lupines & Coyote Brush. A wonderfully easy to grow sub-shrub found along the coast where the gray foliage becomes covered with fragrant clusters of yellow flowers from May to September. Â The form is nicely rounded, especially with some tip pruning in the late fall. It’s a great nectar plant for small native insects and butterflies. The frosty look makes it standout, particularly when massed.
