Nursery contributed plant descriptions

THE biggest hit in our nursery last Spring. This rare, tough & very showy, shrubby perennial bears masses of large pink to bright rose daisies on multi-branching stems & pretty, shiny, evergreen foliage. It started blooming in February & continued through June! To 5’ tall & wide. From South Africa. Reseeds!
