Thriving across the Central Great Plains, Chihuahuan Deserts, Cross Timbers, Edwards Plateau, High Plains, Southern Texas Plains, and Southwestern Tablelands, Four-nerve Daisy (Tetraneuris scaposa) is an enduring semi-evergreen perennial prized in water-wise native landscapes. During Spring, Summer, and Fall, the plant produces green, yellow blooms. Flowering is followed by ornamental fruit is a cypsela (pl. cypselae). though technically incorrect, the fruit is often referred to as an achene that add seasonal interest. It provides essential nectar, shelter, or forage for native wildlife, including Nectar Insects. Thriving in clay, dry, limestone, rocky, sand, and well drained, Four-nerve Daisy demonstrates outstanding hardiness once established. It requires minimal supplemental water and tolerates dry spells with ease. It offers high deer resistance.
