Winter Hardy Gazania

Quick Facts :: Growing Tips

Full and Afternoon Sun Xeric Resists Rabbits Western Only  Legend

Description:

6” x 12” wide, (seed propagated). The rich orange color of Gazania ‘Tanager’ is a welcome addition to the early spring garden. ‘Tanager’ is a non-stop bloomer until the heat of summer arrives. A low mounding grower, it is excellent when grouped around the base of taller, blue flowered perennials like Nepeta x faassenii ‘Select Blue’. This South African native loves full sun, and sandy or loamy soils; avoid heavy clay. Encourage re-seeding by planting along gravel paths or by mulching its planting bed with crushed gravel. Zones (6 in arid winter climates) 7-10 elsewhere.

Special Notes:

A low mounding grower, it is excellent when grouped around the base of taller, blue flowered perennials like Nepeta x faassenii ‘Select Blue’.
