Description
This floriferous and low growing native has delightful brown spherical cones which are surrounded by a flowing fringe of bright yellow-reflexed petals looking like hundreds of yellow-skirted dancers in motion. The foliage is compact and bushy. Tolerant of a wide variety of conditions, H. flexuosum blooms from mid-summer into fall.
