Turnera ulmifolia ‘Alba’
White Beach Buttercup is an eye-catching non-native Florida friendly that blooms throughout the year. It is a low-growing, sprawling subshrub with dark green leaves and flowers that open in the morning and close up by noon. White Beach Buttercup grows in full sun to part shade and average to moist well-draining soils. While it can grow a little leggy, you can trim it back to keep it more dense and amend the soil with a slow-release organic fertilizer or compost occasionally. The creamy-white flowers with a yellow blushed, “black-eye” attract bumblebees, carpenter bees, hummingbirds, and other pollinators.
