Best Flowering Plant for your Garden - Osteospermums

Osteospermum is a kind belonging to the Calenduleae, one of the smaller tribes of the sunflower family (Asteraceae). Osteospermums gives a rich look for your outdoor garden. You can also have them indoor.

Osteospermums, also known as the African daisy, are enjoying a sunny position in a well drained plant border on the top of a wall. They associate well with other gray leaved plants which prefer a drier location such as Lavander, garden pinks and Senecio. All of these garden plants enjoy the favourable Dundee weather. The purple flowers last all summer on these perennial plants.
