Bidens ferulifolia or Tickseed is a vigorous compact and dense low growing perennial plant that has fern-like leaves and lovely golden yellow, five petaled flowers which bloom from spring right through to autumn.
It is quite bushy in its habit and works well in a mixed border or cascading over walls or pot edges.
It has freely-branching stems with small narrow dark leaves and produces a profusion of golden yellow flowers that are held up over the foliage on wiry stems and are delicately fragrant.
Its a pretty and informal plant while being very hardy, drought, heat and wind tolerant.
It excels as a companion to larger plants in pots and planters and also goes very well in hanging baskets.
