Description
This species is native to southern Brazil and throughout the northern half of Argentina where it is quite rare. It inhabits pastures and meadows of gravel and clay soils, and along riverbank corridors often submerged in the rain season. A lovely and vigorous miniature species and flowers freely when planted in damp clay soils in full sun. Z. flavissima produces rich intense golden yellow funnel shape flowers sometimes with an tinge of orange. It flowers just 6" from the soil surface with deep green grass like foliage. Z. flavissima flowers in mid-spring through early summer. For us in 7b July is its flowering time. Plants generally will clump up quickly if supplied plenty of moisture. Considered rare in the wild. TOXIC WHEN EATEN!!! VERY EASY TO GROW!!!
