Description
Botanically called Gazania rigens, treasure flower is a more common name.
Gazania can be annuals or evergreen perennials, of spreading habit, with lobed lance-shaped leaves and showy daisy-like flowers which close at night and in dull weather.
Native to South Africa, gazanias love a hot, sunny position in the garden.
They are great landscape plants and tolerate most conditions, making them easy to grow.
The variety of flower colours are very alluring and prized by gardeners.
