Nidorella ivifolia, commonly known as Ivy-leaved Nidorella, is a deciduous perennial herb that is indigenous to the grasslands and open areas of South Africa. It typically grows at a moderate rate to heights of 5-12 feet (1.5-3.7 meters) and spreads 5-7 feet (1.5-2.1 meters). This plant features deeply lobed, ivy-like leaves and bears clusters of bright yellow, daisy-like flowers that are quite showy, blooming profusely in the spring and summer months. The flowers attract a variety of pollinators, adding to the ecological value of the plant.

Ivy-leaved Nidorella is valued for its vibrant floral display and can be used in mixed borders, as a specimen plant, or in naturalized areas where its height can be accommodated. It thrives in full sun, requiring low amounts of water once established, making it suitable for xeriscaping and drought-tolerant gardens. The plant prefers sandy or loamy soils with medium drainage. While generally low-maintenance, it may need protection from frost in colder climates. It is not commonly associated with serious pests or diseases, but overwatering can lead to root rot.CC BY-SA 4.0
