Thriving in sunny spots with freely-draining soils, these Gazania 'Sunburst Series' will produce large, eye-catching, bright-orange flowers from early-to-late summer. Free-flowering by nature (even when the sun is not shining), but they will produce even more if they are deadheaded regularly.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plants, but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

Garden care:
Pot up seedlings and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio. Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.
