Sun Daisy

February 21, 2018 @ 12:16 am

(Osteospermum) Dazzling white flowers with metallic backing are produced from April through summer over glistening mats of lustrous, nearly succulent, evergreen foliage. Giant blossoms close at night to reveal a metallic reverse of ray flowers. A spectacular addition to the sunny border or  water-smart landscape. Not well suited to areas that are frequently irrigated, in poorly drained soils, and in soils highly amended with organic materials. Deadhead spent flowers periodically to keep plants attractive.
