Description:
Yellow Flame Gazania is a striking, sun-loving perennial that produces large, golden-yellow daisy-like flowers with bold red or orange flame-like markings radiating from the centre. This vibrant colour pattern makes it a standout in garden beds, borders, rockeries, and pots. Highly drought-tolerant and thriving in full sun, it prefers well-drained soils and requires minimal maintenance, making it ideal for coastal and dry-climate gardens.
