Overview

Cooper's Paperflower (Psilostrophe cooperi) is a low-maintenance, sun-loving perennial standing 1-2 feet tall, with silvery foliage and bright yellow, daisy-like blooms measuring about 1 inch across. Blossoms emerge in spring, with papery petals persisting through summer and into fall, adding continuous color and texture. Ideal for xeriscaping, this drought-tolerant species thrives in well-draining soils and is excellent for adding contrast to rock gardens or arid landscapes. Zones 5-10.
