Tufted herb with woolly grey foliage and upright stalks of yellow paper daisy flowers to 40cm high mainly in spring. Found locally on Taungurung Country in woodlands and foothills commonly on shallow, rocky soils. An important pollinator species providing nectar for native butterflies and moths, and readily colonises after disturbances such as fire. Plants are annual but may reshoot from the base for up to two to three years. Continually moist soils will decrease the plant’s longevity.
