About

Felicia erigeroides, commonly known as wild Michaelmas daisy, isithelelo or ixhaphozi, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae native to South Africa, where it is found from Humansdorp in Eastern Cape Province to KwaZulu-Natal.

Felicia erigeroides was first described in 1836 by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle. Harvey reclassified it as Aster erigoides, but this was an illegitimate name.
