Senecio Campestris

Senecio campestris, commonly known as the roadside groundsel, is a hardy flowering plant native to southern Africa. It thrives in dry, open habitats and is often found growing along roadsides and in rocky areas. This plant is characterized by its upright stems and clusters of small, yellow flowers that bloom in the summer months. Despite its modest appearance, it plays an important role in supporting local pollinators and wildlife. Its resilience and adaptability make it a fascinating subject for both botanists and gardeners alike.
