Brachyglottis genus – this genus now also contains several shrubs previously botanically classified in the Senecio genus, and is closely related to the Olearia genus. Many of the New Zealand species have bold foliage, usually with distinctive white felted leaf undersides and white or yellow daisy-like flowers, some with and some without ray florets. Many are especially useful garden plants for dry, sunny positions and a number of excellent Brachyglottis cultivars are now common in cultivation.
