Description
It is a succulent plant that grows to 20cm to 30cm tall and will have a width of 40cm to 60cm, forming an evergreen cluster and as well as a caudex. The plant can also be a vine due to its articulated tuberous roots. The clumps will feature brightly coloured, yellow-orange, daisy-like blooms from autumn to winter on 5cm long spikes.
The plant is so-called because of its leaf resemblance to the species in the unrelated nasturtium genus. Leaves also bear a similarity to those of Senecio angulatus, a closely related vine.
Cultivation
The plant is hardy to zones 9b to 11b. You can also grow it from stem cuttings. It would thrive in containers, such as hanging baskets, and would do well as a groundcover too, due to the cascading and sprawling nature of the stems. It thrives in full sun to shade. It is not able to withstand wet soils but would tolerate drought. You can also grow it as a bonsai plant.
Taxonomy
The plant has been considered to be a subspecies of Senecio oxyriifolius, although recent studies have shown that, whilst they are closely related, they are different enough to be disparate species. The most striking difference is that this plant has ray florets.
