• Etymology: "The derivation of the name Xerochrysum was not indicated by Tzvelev (1990), however it evidently comes from the Latinised Greek words xeros (dry) and chrysos (gold), presumably with reference to the laminae of the involucral bracts. The name is probably also linked to the names Xeranthemum L. and Helichrysum Mill., in which genera the type species has in the past been included by some authors."
