BLUE EYE DAISY
You are bidding on 5 seeds
Also known as Osteospermum or African Daisy, they originate in South Africa. Osteospermums are a member of Asteraceae family. They like sunny, well-drained conditions and are technically perennial but are generally grown as annual. In an area where the winters are frost-free, they will live and grow without protection from the cold. The petals vary from smooth and regular to dipped and spoon-shaped. They do best in sunny areas. The flowers open fully in direct sun and close each evening. They bloom best when the nights are cool. During periods of summer when the nights are quite warm, there will be a period of reduced blooms. When the nights cool off, they will perk back up and put on a fresh show. Osteospermum will grow in the garden or in containers. They must be kept well-watered but the soil must be well-drained and not soggy. A general-purpose fertilizer for blooming plants is helpful every month during growing season, and dead-heading will promote continuous blossoms.
