Heliopsis procumbens is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae.[1][2] It is native to central Mexico from Jalisco and Michoacán east to Veracruz.[3][4] Its daisy-like flowers, which have a diameter of 2-3 inches and yellow-orange rays encircling brownish-yellow center cones, are characteristic of its typical 3–4-foot growth. Throughout the summer, flowers bloom on stiff stems covered in up to six-inch-long, ovate, toothed leaves.[5]
