How to Grow and Care for Four-nerve daisies

The Tetraneuris scaposa is an evergreen that has yellow flowers. This plant blooms during the winter and is found in borders and sunny rock gardens. The plant attracts butterflies, and the genus name, Tetraneuris scaposa, was named after the four nerves commonly found in the flowers' corolla. According to the Smithsonian Institution, in 1908, the Zuni Indians used this to cure sore eyes and other skin problems.

Tetraneuris linearifolia is an annual herb up to 51 cm tall. It forms a branching underground caudex sometimes producing as many as 10 above-ground stems. One plant can produce as many as 80 flower heads. Each head has 9–25 yellow ray flowers surrounding 50-200 yellow disc flowers.

Tetraneuris argentea is a perennial herb up to 42 cm tall. It forms a branching underground caudex sometimes producing as many as 12 above-ground stems. One plant can produce as many as 30 flower heads. Each head has 8–14 yellow ray flowers surrounding 25-100 yellow disc flowers.

Eastern fournerved daisy is a perennial wildflower that thrives in the well-drained soils of North American prairies. Its gray-green foliage forms a compact basal rosette, from which emerges a slender stem topped with bright, solitary yellow flower heads. These daisy-like blooms, typically with eight ray florets, are a beacon for pollinators and a vibrant nod to the plant's resilience and adaptability.
