Amazing White African Daisy by D Hackett
African Daisy
Osteospermum, or African daisies made a big splash in display gardens in the 1990s. They looked a little like daisies and they are in the Asteraceae family, along with Shasta daisies and zinnia. But when African daisies were first introduced to the market, they had coloring we weren't used to seeing. Many of they center disks looked as though they were colored with metallic paint.
Osteospermum are often labeled as tender perennials or half-hardy perennials. While they are perennial plants in their native climate, few plants survive in USDA Hardiness Zones below 9.
�Leaves: The leaves will vary by variety. They can be lance-like or broadly ovate and smooth, toothed or lobed.
�Flowers: Petals can be smooth and flat, like a daisy, or radiate out in a tubular, spoon-shape. There are many color combinations ( lavender, pink, white, yellow and bi-color) and more introduced each year.
