Podolepis jaceoides, commonly known as Showy Copper-Wire Daisy, is an evergreen perennial herb native to open grasslands, plains, and lightly wooded areas of Southeastern Australia and Tasmania. It typically grows to a height of 0.7-2 feet (0.2-0.6 meters) and a width of up to 0.7 feet (0.2 meters). The plant is characterized by its slender, wiry stems and bright yellow, daisy-like flowers that bloom in spring and are quite showy, attracting various pollinators.

Showy Copper-Wire Daisy is valued for its drought tolerance and vibrant floral display, making it a suitable choice for rockeries, wildflower meadows, and borders in water-wise gardens. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soils, tolerating a range of soil types from sandy to loamy. This species is relatively low-maintenance but may benefit from deadheading to encourage prolonged blooming. It is not commonly reported to have serious disease or pest problems, but overwatering can lead to root rot.CC BY-SA 4.0
