100 Seeds Yellowray Goldfields Lasthenia glabrata Native Wildflower Pollinator Friendly

Yellowray Goldfields (Lasthenia glabrata) is a bright, low-growing annual wildflower native to western North America, prized for its cheerful yellow, daisy-like blooms that open in dense clusters across spring and early summer. Its compact habit and vivid color make it an excellent choice for meadow plantings, borders, and seasonal color in sunny landscapes.

This species works well in wildflower mixes, pollinator gardens, and naturalized areas, where its nectar-rich flowers draw bees and other beneficial insects. It grows quickly from seed and performs best in open, sunny sites with good air movement, self-sowing readily where conditions suit it. Its fine texture and long bloom window add informal, natural character to beds, containers, and larger open plantings.
