Gazania F1 'tiger mix'

Genus: Gazania.

Species: Gazania rigens.

Took off slow due to the cool weather and opened only for a good hot sunny day. Didn't need any extra attention. I would choose a hotter and sunnier position for these next year. The color was stunning, the varietions exciting and the result overwhelming. I'm placing them in porch boxes next year where they get hotter and have less moisture. I found that I could bring in as a houseplant as well so I might pot some up for the winter next year as well.
