Engelmann's Daisy
Engelmann’s daisy is a long-blooming wildflower, known for its ability to flower from May through September.
In the spring, it forms a rosette of dark green, fuzzy, deeply cut leaves, which is why it’s also called “cutleaf daisy.” By late spring, it begins to produce vibrant golden-yellow flowers, making it an excellent choice for low-water gardens.
Native to southeastern Colorado, Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma, Engelmann’s daisy thrives in hot, dry, sunny locations. Its deep taproot helps it endure dry spells. It is highly attractive to rabbits and deer.
