Euryops pectinatus
Also called Golden True Eye, Greyleaf True Eye, Wool Harpuis, Woolly True Eye, Gray Leaved Euryops, Grey Leaved Euryops, Brighteyes
Gray leaf euryops is a fast-growing, evergreen shrub from South Africa's Western Cape, with silvery fern-like leaves and yellow daisy flowers that bloom for much of the year. It needs full sun, good drainage, and shelter from frost.
Euryops pectinatus, the grey-leaved euryops, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, endemic to rocky, sandstone slopes in the Western Cape of South Africa (from Gifberg to the Cape Peninsula).
Euryops pectinatus is widely used as a garden plant, especially in urban areas and due to its almost perpetual flowering regime. It grows best in full sun and well-drained deep soils. It must be grown in a sheltered location, away from frost-prone areas. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
