This low-growing plant features vibrant orange flowers with daisy-like petals and silvery foliage, making it a striking addition to any garden bed or container. Gazania hybrids thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, making them ideal for mediterranean climates. These plants have a spreading growth habit, forming a dense mat of foliage and blooms. Gazania hybrids are native to South Africa, where they are commonly found in sandy soils and coastal areas.
Gazania hybrids require minimal water once established, making them perfect for water-wise gardeners. Their drought tolerance and heat resistance make them a popular choice for xeriscaping projects. These plants are also known for attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies to the garden. Gazania hybrids are often used as ground covers, borders, or in mass plantings to add a pop of color to mediterranean landscapes. With their bright blooms and easy-care nature, Gazania hybrids are a must-have for summer-dry gardens.
