Osteospermum Seeds
Fill your garden with non-stop summer colour with Mr Forthergill’s Osteospermum seeds. These vibrant South African flowers, also called African or Cape Daisies, are prized for their cheerful daisy-shaped blooms that keep on coming all season long.
Tolerant of hot, dry conditions, these unfussy yet eye-catching perennials (also available as annual flowers) make an ideal choice for low-maintenance gardens and baskets. They are easy to grow in pots or planted straight into borders and beds. Sow outdoors in the spring and enjoy their glorious displays from June to October, or brighten up your living areas with beautiful cut flowers.
Our top-quality osteospermum seeds produce robust plants smothered in a kaleidoscope of radiant colours, including pinks, purples, yellows, and whites.
Growing Osteospermums from Seed
Growing osteospermum seeds is easy, even for beginner gardeners. They don’t require a lot of attention once established and are tolerant of hot temperatures and drought.
Hardy osteospermum seeds can be sown directly outdoors into pots, beds or borders from March-June. For half-hardy perennials, sow seeds indoors in a warm windowsill in January-March. Gradually accustom young plants to outside temperatures before planting out in May-June. Choose a sheltered spot in full sun with fertile, well-draining soil.
Deadhead any spent blooms to prolong flowering if desired. For hardy cultivars, cut back growth in autumn ready for next spring. Half-hardy cape daisies can be lifted and overwintered indoors or grown as annuals for an easy summer display.
