Isocoma Veneta Var. Oxyphylla
Yellow desert aster, scientifically known as Isocoma veneta var. oxyphylla, is a resilient flowering plant native to the arid regions of the southwestern United States. This hardy species thrives in harsh desert environments, often found in sandy soils and rocky habitats. Its bright yellow blooms appear in late summer, adding a splash of color to the otherwise muted landscape. The plant is well adapted to extreme temperatures and low precipitation, making it a symbol of desert tenacity. Despite its delicate appearance, the yellow desert aster plays a vital role in supporting local pollinators and maintaining ecological balance.
