Roldana petasitis
28th November 2008
A shrubby groundsel from Mexico, one of the striking species from the legion of Senecio that seem to populate every tiny nook and cranny of the planet.
From time to time they all seem to move in and out of Senecio like mediterranean sunbathers with a parasol. This one flirts with being a
Roldana , but eventually all the little yellow daisies come home to roost in Senecio.
Large velvet leaves are probably the most striking part, though the flowers come in winter, which is always interesting.
