African Daisy | Osteospermum ‘FlowerPower Pink Orange’

Bring a gorgeous splash of warm colour to the garden with Osteospermum ‘FlowerPower Pink Orange’, a vibrant Cape Daisy with eye-catching pink and orange tones that create a beautiful two-tone floral display. The large, daisy-like flowers stand out beautifully against fresh green foliage, adding cheerful colour to sunny garden beds, borders and containers. In Cape Town and the Western Cape, Osteospermums are especially valued for their late-winter and spring flowering, and favourable conditions can bring further blooms in autumn as temperatures begin to cool. It performs best in full sun and well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for sunny courtyards, rockeries, pots, borders and water-wise garden designs. The FlowerPower range is recognised for its strong branching and abundant, colourful blooms.

Plant & Care

Plant in full sun and well-drained soil for the best flowering. Water regularly while establishing, then allow the soil to dry slightly between watering once established. Remove faded flowers from time to time to keep the plant tidy and encourage further flowering. A light trim after a main flush of flowering can help maintain a compact shape and encourage fresh growth. Container-grown plants can benefit from occasional feeding during active growth.

Did You Know?

Osteospermum is one of South Africa’s much-loved indigenous flowering plants, and its natural origins in the country’s Mediterranean-climate regions help explain why Cape Daisies perform so beautifully in the Western Cape. The flowers also respond to light, typically opening fully in bright sunshine and closing when light levels are low.
