Botany: senecio/brachyglottis ‘sunshine’

Self-tutoring about botany: the tutor IDs a plant.

I’ve long known an evergreen bush with silvery leaves. Its yellow flowers have 13 petals, which I find surprising. It’s around a metre tall, but spreads outwards rather than gaining height. What is it?

Apparently it’s a brachyglottis (aka senecio), perhaps the ‘sunshine’ variety.
