Description
Introduce a charming, low-growing South African gem to your garden with Bergeranthus scapiger. This hardy, evergreen succulent forms compact, dense clumps of smooth, upright, jade-green leaves that are distinctly triangular in cross-section. From late winter through spring and early summer, it puts on a bright display by producing beautiful, daisy-like golden-yellow flowers that open up in the afternoon sun. Over time, it develops a thick, fleshy rootstock that can naturally lift above the soil, giving the plant a unique, bonsai-like character.

Care Tips: Thrives in a full sun position to encourage maximum afternoon blooms. Highly drought-resistant once established—water moderately during the spring and summer growing seasons, and allow the well-draining, sandy soil to dry out completely between waterings. Protect from severe, hard frosts.
