Wedelia trilobata

Yellow Dot  On north exposures, or any densely shaded location, one of your best ground cover choices is Wedelia trilobata, commonly called Yellow dot. This rich green ground cover spreads quickly to form a dense mat of foliage to 1 foot tall by 4-6 feet wide. Yellow Dot is an extremely versatile plant, also growing well in full sun if ample summer irrigation is provided. In sunnier spots, inch-wide yellow daisy flowers contrast against the deep green foliage. Although Yellow dot is quite frost tender, it recovers very quickly in the spring. USDA Zone 9.
