Pycnosorus Golden Billy Buttons - 14cm Pot

Pycnosorus globosus, commonly known as Billy Buttons, is a striking Australian native perennial loved for its bright golden globe flowers held high on sturdy stems. Flowering from spring through summer, these perfectly round blooms create a bold, architectural look and are highly prized for cut flowers and dried arrangements.

At the base, a clump of soft, silvery-grey foliage adds contrast and texture, making this plant just as appealing when not in flower. Its upright form and long-lasting blooms make it a standout in both garden beds and floral displays.

With its hardy nature and underground rhizome, Billy Buttons is a reliable choice for low-maintenance gardens, wildflower meadows and modern planting schemes.

Mature size: approximately 30cm–1m high × 20–50cm wide

Minimal maintenance is required—remove spent flower stems to encourage further blooms and maintain a tidy appearance.
