DESKTOP 154 - CAPE DAISY

Osteospermum is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the sunflower/daisy family Asteraceae. Osteospermum used to belong to the genus Dimorphotheca, but only the annual species remain in that genus; the perennials belong to Osteospermum. The genus Osteospermum is also closely related to the small genus Chrysanthemoides, such as C. incana and C. monilifera.

This variety is called "Peach Magic" and features flowers that change colour as they mature.
