Arctotis venusta Seeds

Blue Eyed African Daisy 

Arctotis is a genus of about 40-50 species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to southern Africa, from South Africa north to Angola. Some of the plants are alternatively placed in the genus Venidium. Many are called by the common name "African daisy", or "Botterblom" and "Gousblom" in Afrikaans. Some species have been developed as popular horticultural items because of their attractive yellow, orange, red, or white flowers. Gardeners cultivate some species as frost-hardy annuals. Arctotis venusta is one of the few South African indigenous annuals that are easy to grow and provide a reliable, colourful display in summer. Lush plants can easily grow up to 500 mm high, forming soft, round bushes. Arctotis venusta is an attractive annual for summer display in the garden.
