Texas creeping-oxeye or wedelia is a small shrub, from 8 in. to 3 ft. tall. Woody branches send down roots and and gradually increase the plant's circumference. Rough-hairy, gray-green foliage subtends the 1 in., orange-yellow, daisy-like flowers which literally cover the plant from summer to frost. (source - Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center)
