Gazania are tough as olds boots

If you want a plant that will give you colour for most seasons then Gazania is the plant for you.



Gazania are mostly low-growing, near-evergreen, clump-forming or carpeting plants. They
quickly develop into small clumps of narrow lance-shaped leaves that can be downy and lobed near the base, often with lighter coloured undersides. Their showy flowers, which appear throughout the warmer months, are large, brightly coloured, often interestingly marked, and the array of colours is expanding every year.  Although the warmer months will see the best floral display, in areas with little frost the Gazania will continue to produce flowers all year round.

A very versitale plant for pots, rockeries or larger garden beds and when it comes to tough conditions they thrive.  Dought tolerant and sun lovers, so give them a go you want be disappointed.


Happy gardening
