Sol Dancer Daisy (Hymenoxys acaulis v arizonica Sol Dancer) is a durable, xeric perennial that blooms with a profusion of large, bright yellow flowers held over a mound of finely textured foliage beginning in late spring.
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
15-16" tall x 12-15" wide. Sol Dancer Daisy (Hymenoxys acaulis v arizonica Sol Dancer) blooms with a profusion of large, bright yellow flowers held over a mound of finely textured foliage beginning in late spring. This durable, xeric perennial is well-suited for planting in poor, fast draining soils with lots of sun and heat. Sol Dancer Daisy is a native perennial that is highly resistant to browsing rabbits and deer. Mulch with gravel to improve garden performance and encourage the plant to re-seed itself.
Hymenoxys acaulis v. arizonica 'Sol Dancer' is a Sego Supreme plant introduction from the Utah State University Botanical Center. Sego Supreme plants are bred to enhance their natural characteristics and improve their adaptability for the home gardener.

Hymenoxys (Sundancer Daisy) is a genus of native wildflowers native primarily to the Western US. They are completely rabbit and deer resistant.
Preferred growing conditions:
Plant in a fast draining, infertile soil with full sun. Don't plant in clay soils.
Mulch with gravel or not at all.
Water regularly the first growing season to establish the plant. There after, infrequent but deep watering is all this plant needs.
Deadheading helps to keep the foliage looking tidy, but may not extend the flowering season.
Fertilize lightly in the fall with Yum Yum Mix.
Special comments:
Hymenoxys can be short-lived perennials and should be encouraged to re-seed themselves by leaving some seed heads on the plants and mulching with small diameter gravel mulch.
Hymenoxys are generally tap-rooted perennials and should not be divided.
Many have evergreen foliage that should not be cut back. Trimming off the old flowering stems is sufficient to keep the plants looking good.
