African daisies are valued for their ability to provide abundant blooms throughout the growing season and come in many colors, including various shades of pink, purple, red, yellow, and white. They prefer full sun, well-draining soil, and are suitable for garden beds, borders, containers, and hanging baskets.

Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:
Plant in full sun. Prefers well-drained soil that is evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. For continuous blooms, deadhead spent flowers and give light pruning mid-late summer to maintain a bushy shape. These plants are heat-tolerant but thrive in cooler conditions, blooming best in spring and fall.
