Baccharis halimifolia – Groundsel bush

Description

Groundsel bush (Baccharis halimifolia) seeds often don’t need stratification and germinate quickly in warm, moist conditions, thriving in full sun, wet to sandy soils, and tolerating salt, making them great for erosion control and coastal areas; their fall flowers attract late-season pollinators like butterflies and bees, providing valuable food before winter, with both male and female plants needed for seeds.
