What is Pallenis

Gold Coin (scientific name: Pallenis maritima) is a dwarf evergreen germplasm in the family Asteraceae, native to Greece and other western Mediterranean countries. In spring and summer, it produces yellow-headed flowers in a monocotyledonous inflorescence extending from the tip of the flower stem.
