Mountain daisy, Celmisia semicordata, is a pretty New Zealand native, bearing attractive silvery, sword-shaped leaves and white, yellow-centred daisy flowers. It's perfect for growing in a rockery or scree, where it will thrive provided it has little competition.
Grow Celmisia semicordata in moist but well-drained, slightly acidic soil, in full sun. There's no need to prune. To propagate, divide in spring or save seed in late summer and sow immediately.
