#MEIAZKA Berlandiera lyrata, commonly known as chocolate flower or chocolate daisy, is a species of flowering plant in the Asteraceae family. It is native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. The plant gets its common name from the chocolate-like fragrance of its yellow flowers, which emit a strong cocoa scent, especially in the morning and evening. Berlandiera lyrata is a perennial herb that typically grows to a height of about 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 centimeters). It has gray-green, lance-shaped leaves that are covered in fine hairs. The flowers are daisy-like with bright yellow petals surrounding a central disc. The disc is dark brown, and its aroma is what gives the plant its distinctive chocolate scent. The flowers bloom from spring to early summer. This plant is well-adapted to arid environments and is often found growing in desert scrublands, rocky slopes, and grasslands. It prefers full sun and well-drained soils. Berlandiera lyrata can be cultivated in gardens and landscapes, adding both visual appeal and a pleasant fragrance. It also attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Full Sun-Partial Shade Zone: 4-10 Height-Width: 3-2' You are purchasing a well rooted plant; similar to last photo - may vary slightly +/-
