Wedelia is a genus of flowering plants in the aster family, Asteraceae. It is a mat forming evergreen perennial herb with rounded stems. Leaves are fleshy, usually 2 to 4 inches long and 1 to 5 inches wide, with irregularly toothed margins. Flowers are solitary, one inch in diameter and yellow-orange in color.
