Wedelia Trilobata

Sphagneticola trilobata, commonly called Bay Biscayne creeping-oxeye, Singapore daisy, creeping-oxeye, trailing daisy and wedelia, is a plant of the Heliantheae tribe of the Asteraceae family (sunflower). It is native to Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, but is now developing in the neotropics. It is widely cultivated as an ornamental ground cover. Sphagneticola trilobata is included in the “IUCN List of the 100 worst invasive species in the world”. It is spread by people as an ornamental or ground cover planted in gardens, then it is spread in surrounding areas by dumping garden waste. It is propagated vegetatively, not by seeds. It quickly forms a dense plant cover, moving away and preventing other plant species from regenerating. This species is widely available as an ornamental and is therefore likely to spread further. Herbaceous perennial herb spreading and matiform reaching 30 cm in height. Has rounded stems up to 40 cm long, rooting at nodes and with ascending flowering stems. The leaves are fleshy, hairy, 4–9 cm long and 2–5 cm wide, serrated or irregularly toothed, normally with pairs of lateral lobes, dark green above and lighter green below. .
