Chrysocephalum apiculatum 'Desert Flame' – Yellow Buttons
A stunning Australian native, Chrysocephalum apiculatum 'Desert Flame' produces a profusion of bright golden yellow button-like flowers on a low, spreading mound of striking silvery-gray woolly foliage.

The silver foliage provides beautiful year-round contrast and pairs elegantly with lavenders, salvias, and other Mediterranean-style plants.
