Galphimia gracilis, commonly known as Slender Goldshower, is an evergreen shrub native to Mexico, Central America and Northern South America. It typically grows to a height and width of 6-10 feet (1.8-3 meters), featuring a rounded, bushy form. This shrub is known for its small, star-shaped yellow flowers that bloom profusely throughout the year, especially from spring to fall, adding a splash of color to the garden. The flowers are quite showy and can attract pollinators such as butterflies.

Slender Goldshower is valued for its low maintenance requirements and its ability to thrive in a variety of garden settings. It is often used for ornamental purposes in tropical and subtropical landscapes, including as a specimen plant, in mixed borders, or as informal hedges. It prefers well-drained soils and can tolerate drought once established, although it benefits from regular watering during prolonged dry periods. Slender Goldshower enjoys full sun to partial shade and can be pruned to maintain a desired shape or size.CC BY-SA 4.0
