Oregon Sunshine ‘Takilma Gold’ (Eriophyllum lanatum ‘Takilma Gold’) brings a burst of glowing color to dry, sunny spaces with minimal fuss. This compact, mounding perennial forms a soft, silvery mat of woolly foliage that shimmers even when not in bloom. Come late spring, it erupts with daisy-like golden flowers that practically sparkle in the summer sun, creating a long-lasting display that’s irresistible to bees and butterflies.
'Takilma Gold' is a compact selection from the mountains of Southern Oregon and is more moisture tolerant than is typical, while still retaining its natural drought tolerance.
Perfect for rock gardens, slopes, and xeriscapes, ‘Takilma Gold’ thrives in lean, well-drained soils where many plants struggle. Its high drought tolerance and deer resistance make it a reliable, low-maintenance choice for tough spots that still deserve a touch of sunshine. Whether you’re filling gaps in a native garden or adding a cheerful groundcover to a dry border, this mountain-hardy perennial delivers easy charm all season long.
