Turnera ulmifolia L.

Turnera ulmifolia -Cuban buttercup- it will thrive no matter the conditions, bees love them

Aptly named, the Buttercups bloom in the morning and retreat in the afternoon. Easily becoming one of my favorites plants due to it's ease of care, abundant flowers and dark green foliage.

Butterflies of all types flock to this reliable burst of color.
