Description
Euryops 'Infinity' is a variety of African bush daisy that is particularly compact, relatively hardy (down to -7°C), and prized for its endless bright yellow flowering and its finely cut evergreen foliage. This bushy and well-branched plant is also charming for its easy maintenance and drought resistance when planted in the ground. In beds or pots, summer or winter, it shines like the sun!
Euryops 'Infinity' belongs to the Asteraceae family. It is nicknamed "shrub daisy," "Cape marguerite," or "African bush daisy." 'Infinity' is a hybrid, likely resulting from the cross-breeding between Euryops pectinatus and E. chrysanthemoides, two South African species. This is a fast-growing shrubby perennial. It forms a small, dense, rounded bush, reaching 50 to 70 cm in height and 50 cm in width. The stems are semi-woody at the base, with flexible, well-branched stems. The foliage can be evergreen in winter, provided it doesn't freeze too hard. It consists of finely divided, 4 to 10 cm long leaves, which are dark green to grey-green depending on the season. They give the plant a light and airy appearance. The flowering is one of the major assets of this Euryops 'Infinity'. The flower heads, resembling daisies, feature bright yellow ligulate florets surrounding a central disc of the same colour. Each head is about 5 cm in diameter, borne on a long, upright stem. Flowering lasts from spring to autumn, with peaks at the start and end of the season, and can extend into winter in mild climates.
Euryops are easy-to-grow plants in mild climates, where they prove extremely generous. In a coastal garden, pair the 'Infinity' variety with lavandins, Santolina chamaecyparissus, Helichrysum italicum, or even Gaura lindheimeri 'Whirling Butterflies': all share the same cultivation requirements and complement its sunny flowering. It withstands wind and sea spray, tolerates drought, and adapts to any well-drained soil. It will thrive in a large pot on a sheltered terrace or balcony. Gardeners in more continental regions, where winters are harsh and wet, should bring it indoors to a lightly heated greenhouse.

Planting and care
Plant Euryops 'Infinity' in the ground or in pots. In the garden, place it in ordinary, well-loosened, sandy, stony or humus-bearing soil, not too rich but very well-drained. This plant tolerates limestone in the soil quite well, but it struggles with clay soils and waterlogged conditions in winter, which reduce its hardiness. It will regrow fairly easily from the ground in spring if the aerial parts have been damaged by frost, down to -7°C. Good protection such as winter fleece should be provided in the garden. Summer drought is not a problem once the Euryops is well-rooted, but occasional watering will encourage flowering. Euryops prefers naturally temperate climates near the sea or ocean. It tolerates sea spray well and thrives in sunny positions. Regularly remove faded flowers, and prune after each flush of flowering: new growth occurs even on woody stems.
Container cultivation: prepare a mix of garden soil, perlite, leaf compost and coarse sand. Fill a pot of 30 to 50 cm in diameter, with the bottom lined with a thick drainage layer made of clay pebbles, pumice or broken terracotta. Monitor watering in summer and apply slow-release fertiliser in spring. Repot every 2 years into a slightly larger container. Overwinter the plant frost-free and reduce watering.
Propagation by cuttings after flowering, or by sowing, should be done occasionally to rejuvenate this short-lived plant.
Pests and diseases: no specific diseases are known in our climate.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
