Sonchus palmensis Palm/Cycad Full sun to light shadeThis dandelion relative native to the Canary Islands is just the thing for creating an exotic look. Deeply cut fern like foliage up to 3ft. long cover stout 4 5ft. plants. Late spring early summer large panicles (up to 4 feet across), covered with 2 inch yellow dandelions. For all but hot afternoon sun and even tolerates light shade, average garden moisture and a little fertilizer go a long way. A fun fast growing annual for pots or planting beds.
