Euryops is a genus of flowering plants in the sunflower family. They are native mostly to rocky sites in southern Africa, with a few species in other parts of Africa and on the Arabian Peninsula. They produce daisy-like flowerheads from fern-like foliage. The name Euryops is probably a contraction of the Greek words () meaning 'wide,' and () meaning 'eye,' possibly referring to the large flowerheads compared to the narrow leaves.
