DESKTOP 763 - CAPE DAISIES

Osteospermum (African daisies or Cape daisies) are popular flowers in cultivation, where they are frequently used in summer bedding schemes in parks and gardens. Numerous hybrids and cultivars have been grown with a wide range of tropical colours (white, pink, magenta, purple, orange, red, bicoloured, yellow, single and double). Yellow cultivars tend to have a yellow centre (sometimes off-white). The hybrid shown here is Osteospermum ecklonis 'Zion Red'.
