Layia fremontii
Also called Frémont's Tidytips, Smooth Tidytips
Fremont's tidytips is a small annual wildflower from California, grown for its yellow daisy-like flowers with white-tipped petals. Give it full sun and well-drained soil, and it self-sows readily.
Layia fremontii is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae known by the common name Frémont's tidytips. Both its common name, and its specific epithet are derived from John C. Frémont.
It is endemic to California, where it grows in the northern Coast Ranges, the Central Valley, and the Sierra Nevada foothills.
