Senecio articulatus Seeds

Senecio is a genus of the daisy family (Asteraceae) that includes ragworts and groundsels.

The flower heads are normally rayed, completely yellow, and the heads are borne in branched clusters.

Senecio is one of the largest genera of flowering plants, and despite the separation of many species into other genera it still contains over 1000 species of varied form, including leaf, stem and tuber succulents, annuals, perennials, aquatics, climbers, shrubs and small trees.

Some species produce natural biocides (especially alkaloids) to deter or even kill animals that would eat them.

Senecio articulatus or Candle Plant as it is commonly known is an unusual species from South Africa with swollen silver-blue stems topped with a bunch of heart-shaped leaves.

During spring and summer it bears pale yellow flowers.

It prefers a part sun to lightly shaded area of the garden.
