Damianita is a 1-2’, bushy, low-growing, aromatic, evergreen shrub with stems rising in a mounded or bouquet form from a woody base. Leaves crowded on the twigs, dark green, up to 3/8” long by 1/16”  inch or less wide, covered with green to black glandular dots visible under a 10x hand lens. This is a very leafy plant - the narrow, fragrant foliage everywhere except on the 1-3” long peduncles. These extend from branch tips and bear a solitary, yellow, composite flower. 

Height: to 2’

Flowers: golden-yellow; 1” across

Blooms: April - November

Notes: Damianita requires very little water, once it is established. This highly adaptable ground cover plant is both drought-tolerant and cold hardy. Damianita does best in full sun and in soil with good drainage. Group individual plants together to form a continuous ground cover.
