Creeping Gold Buttons (Cotula)

Description

4″ tall (in flower) x 24″ wide (cutting propagated). Cotula x ‘Tiffindell Gold’ (Creeping Gold Buttons) was discovered growing on the rugged hills surrounding Tiffindell, South Africa’s only alpine ski area. A vigorous grower with deep, water-seeking roots, ‘Tiffindell Gold’ has soft, one-inch high emerald green foliage and an impressive display of golden button-like flowers that illuminate the garden beginning in late spring. Deadheading extends the bloom season through the summer. This perennial is a wide spreading, low care groundcover whose stems root as they spread. Its thick, deep reaching root system make the plant an excellent weed-resistant sod. It is invaluable for carpeting large patches in perennial beds or as a grass replacement in low traffic areas. It even looks good in the winter as its foliage is evergreen. Plant ‘Tiffindell Gold’ in any well-drained soil.
