Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Osteospermum 'Avalanche' is a super hardy African daisy from the Drakensberg Mountains that blooms from spring until fall with masses of large,dazzling white daisies with yellow centres. The plants form prostrate mats of evergreen, semi-succulent, mid green foliage that are perfect for tumbling over walls, edging a border or pathway, for use as a ground cover, or growing in containers, window boxes or hanging baskets. Grow in full to part sun with good drainage. Drought tolerant and sterile so won't produce seed.

White flowers with metallic backing.

By: Little Prince of Oregon

Dazzling white flowers with metallic backing are produced from April through summer over glistening mats of lustrous, nearly succulent, evergreen foliage. It has greater disease resistance and heavier summer bloom than the other hardy sun daisies. Giant blossoms close at night to reveal a metallic reverse of ray flowers. A spectacular addition to the sunny border or xeriscape. Sandy, clay or loam soils. USDA zones 4-9 (up to 8,000'). PP# 22,705
