Osteospermum ‘Lavender DAISY CHAIN™’

Common Name:
Osteospermum ‘Lavender DAISY CHAIN™’

Description:
Osteospermum ‘Lavender DAISY CHAIN™’ is a compact, evergreen perennial celebrated for its profusion of soft lavender daisy-like flowers with delicate lilac central markings. Blooming from late winter through to autumn, it provides extended seasonal colour, making it ideal for Melbourne gardens. Its naturally neat and mounding habit suits a variety of settings, including containers, mixed borders, and mass plantings in low-maintenance areas. The plant thrives in moist, well-drained soils and benefits from a light trim after major flowering flushes to encourage further blooms. Applying a slow-release fertiliser in spring and mulching well will help retain moisture during dry periods. Regular feeding is recommended if grown in containers.
