Euryops

Euryops is a genus of flowering plants in the sunflower family. They are native mostly to rocky sites in southern Africa, with a few species in other parts of Africa and on the Arabian Peninsula. They produce daisy-like flowerheads from fern-like foliage. The name Euryops is probably a contraction of the Greek words ( ) meaning 'wide,' and ( ) meaning 'eye,' possibly referring to the large flowerheads compared to the narrow leaves. ; Species ; Gallery Euryops abrotanifolius - Cape Town.jpg|Euryops abrotanifolius, Western Cape, South Africa File:Euryops acraeus 1.JPG|Euryops acraeus File:Euryops annae 2c.JPG|Euryops annae File:Euryops brownei 02.jpg|Euryops brownei, Kenya File:Margaritón - Margarita amarilla (Euryops chrysanthemoides) - Flickr - Alejandro Bayer.jpg|Euryops chrysanthemoides, South Africa File:Euryops linearis KirstenboschBotGard09292010D.JPG|Euryops linearis, Western Cape, South Africa File:Euryops pectinatus (hortulus) 001.jpg|Euryops pectinatus, South Africa File:Euryops virgineus2.jpg|Euryops virgineus, South Africa File:Euryops speciosissimus (Asteraceae) (23854743038).jpg|Euryops speciosissimus, Western Cape, South Africa File:Euryops tenuissimus (Asteraceae) (23717465398).jpg|Euryops tenuissimus, Western Cape, South Africa File:Euryops arabicus Djibouti.jpg|Euryops arabicus, Djibouti
