50 Seeds African Daisy Dimorphotheca sinuata

African Daisy is a cheerful, low-growing annual prized for its bright daisy-like blooms in shades of orange, yellow, and white. Native to southern Africa, it thrives in sunny, well-drained spots and opens its flowers wide on bright days, making it a favorite for borders, rock gardens, and wildflower meadows.

These easy-to-grow plants work beautifully in cottage gardens, containers, and mass plantings, where their vivid colors attract attention through the growing season. The flowers are suitable for cut arrangements and blend well with other sun-loving annuals. They prefer lean soil and tolerate dry conditions once established, rewarding gardeners with a long bloom period from early summer into fall.
