Panicled Tarweed (Deinandra paniculata) is an annual forb native to Western US states (such as California) that can thrive in USDA Zones 8–10 as a summer annual. Reaching a mature height of 1–3 feet with an erect, branched, glandular-viscid growth habit, it features narrow, aromatic, sticky green leaves and produces small, bright yellow daisy-like flower heads. It thrives in dry, heavy clay soils, plains, and disturbed valley slopes in full sun and is ideal for late-summer soil erosion protection, clay soil revegetation, and native bee forage.
This is an annual herb that grows between 1 to 3 feet tall. It produces small yellow flowers and is used in native plant gardens for its drought tolerance. This plant prefers full sun and dry, open habitats such as grasslands and disturbed sites.
