In spring and early summer, it rewards you with clusters of soft, pale yellow daisy-like flowers that brighten any sunny garden, rockery, or container. Its trailing stems, which can reach up to 25 cm long, make it perfect for cascading over walls, hanging baskets, or spilling gracefully from planters.
