Can anyone identify this shrub/tree? Cypress-like leaves, yellow daisy flowers.
I visited friends at the weekend and was attracted by a shrub/tree in their
garden - but they don't know what it is. I suspect it is an evergreen. Its leaves are something like cypress or yew, yet the flowers are like yellow daisies, over an inch in diameter. I was looking at the shrub/tree from a bedroom window but should estimate its height to be something like 6 to 8 feet. Apparently it is in flower for most of the year, except for about 3 weeks in September. Can anyone help? Cynthia |

Thanks, Charlie. I've just been on to the internet and found Euryops
pectinatus which certainly fits the bill. I've forwarded the page to the friends. Cynthia "Charlie Pridham" wrote in message ... "Cynthia Snowden" wrote in message ...
