Hi all
Does anyone know what a turnea elegance or 'just dandy' shrub is like to grow. This one has leaves similar to lantana leaf shape and yellow flowers, shaped a little like rosebuds but they haven't as yet come out. I can't find it on this or any other site so hope someone can help. There was no gardening label just the name written on the pot. Jancol

I've had a Turnera, yellow with a brown throat, for a few years now. Flowers and flowers in cQ. Known commonly as Siesta plant here, or grrrr, as Northern Territory Hibiscus (what a tommy-rot common name).
