Basket Of Gold
Aurinia saxatilis
Basket of Gold (Aurinia saxatilis) is a perennial forb native to western US states (such as Oregon, California, and Washington) and has also been successfully introduced across North America as a non-invasive plant that can thrive in USDA Zones 3–7. Reaching a mature height of 6–12 inches with a low-growing, spreading mounding growth habit, it features grayish-green, puberulent leaves and produces dense sheets of bright golden-yellow four-petaled flowers. It thrives in dry, well-drained rocky soils and gravelly slopes in full sun and is ideal for rocky slope stabilization, retaining wall revegetation, and dry ground cover.
