From LoveToKnow Garden
Verbesina - V. encelioides is a half-hardy annual, 1 to 2 feet high, with broad clusters of golden-yellow blossoms. California, Texas, and Mexico. V. gigantea, from Jamaica, is about 6 1/2 feet high, and very pleasing, with its round green stems covered with large, winged, glistening, green leaves. It is suitable for beds or groups, and should be planted out early in June. V. pinnatifida is a rough half-shrubby species, with larger leaves. Both these require heat in winter. Cuttings root easily in spring, and grow fast when put out in a sheltered position and rich light soil.
