Very hardy plant, very prolific in flowers, decorative, I don't give it any fertiliser and I barely protect it outside during winter, but sheltered from the prevailing wind and preferably in the sun. Observation made on 3 potted plants over 3 years.

Description

The osteospermum (or oesteospernum) is a perennial plant that is slightly hardy, with shiny green foliage, typically grown as an annual in temperate climates. It tolerates drought.

The Cape Daisy 'Spring Bouquet' variety offers a range of colours from yellow to lilac pink.

Its daisy-like flowers - perfectly formed with tight, deeply cut petals and a black centre - are stunning in pots in cold regions, and in open ground in regions protected from severe frost.

Green plants measuring 4 to 8cm (2 to 3in) in plug plants of 5 small seedlings with a diameter of 2.8cm (1in) and a height of 4cm (2in). Our plants are at least eight weeks old and strong enough to be planted in open ground.

Excellent for flower pots.

Note: Please be aware that our young plug plants are professional products intended for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, transplant and store them under cover (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame etc.) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before planting them outdoors once the risk of frost has definitively passed.

Planting and care

Plant your osteospermum 'Spring Bouquet' in the ground after the last frost, in a sunny location. You can also plant them in pots placed in a sheltered spot, which you will take outside in May. If you plant them in the ground, wait until the frost has passed. 'Spring Bouquet' requires well-drained soil, but not necessarily very rich soil. Water moderately. In pots, regular watering is necessary in summer. Regularly remove faded flowers to prolong flowering. You can keep your osteospermums 'Spring Bouquet' by bringing them indoors under a veranda or a cold greenhouse in winter. They can tolerate a light frost, but they will only survive the winter in a sheltered location protected from severe frost.
