Gazania
Gazania
Gazania rigens
Aka: African Daisies and Treasure Flower
Size: 6 to 18 inches tall (usually just 6-12 inches here)
Lighting requirements: Full to part sun
Seasonal interest: Summer through fall blooms
Winter: Sometimes evergreen here
Deadheading (removing spent blooms) encourages more flowers. If you have heavy clay soil, amend it with compost. Watch the water on this one. It is pretty drought tolerant, so overwatering could lead to rot.
Fun fact: Gazania is named after the 15th-century Greek-Italian scholar Theodorus Gaza.
