Description

Colorado Gold® Treasure Flower (Gazania linearis Colorado Gold) is a long blooming, cold hardy perennial species from the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa. Beginning in late spring, the plant covers itself with bright yellow daisy-type flowers held over a rosette of narrow, deep green leaves. Like blue flax, this Gazania is a willing reseeder when planted into gravel mulch and will naturalize in your landscapes. A 1998 Plant Select® winner selected for its outstanding performance in western gardens.

Planting & Care

Tips For Growing Gazania (African Daisy)

Gazania (African Daisy) is a genus of African wildflowers known for their showy, daisy-like flowers.

Preferred growing conditions:

  • Plant in a fast draining, infertile soil with full sun. Avoid clay soils. Mulch with gravel or not at all.
  • Water regularly for the first 2 to 3 months to establish new transplants. Thereafter, infrequent but deep watering is adequate.
  • The plants benefit from deadheading to extend the blooming period and limit reseeding where it's not desirable.
  • Fertilize lightly in the fall with a half and half blend of Yum Yum Mix and good quality compost.

Special comments:

  • Gazania are typically short lived perennials and gardeners should replace tired plants every 3 or 4 growing seasons. Gazania are willing re-seeders and can be encouraged to do so by mulching with gravel.
  • Reinvigorate the plants in mid-spring by vigorously scratching out the dead foliage to reveal new leaves emerging from the crown. Don't cut the plants back to the ground as this can kill them.
