Osteospermum Tresco Purple Flower Plants produce large purple blooms with attractive veining and petals that are slightly lighter on the reverse, creating a striking display in sunny garden spaces.

These perennial African daisies are prized for their generous flower size and long flowering season, bringing vibrant colour from early summer through to well into autumn. Their neat, bushy habit makes them a lovely choice for the front of beds and borders, where they create a cheerful and welcoming display.

They are equally suited to patio containers, hanging baskets and window boxes, where their rich colour adds interest to mixed plantings. For best results, grow in well-drained soil in a sunny position and enjoy a reliable burst of summer colour that also attracts pollinators.

Young Plants

Grown in individual large plug cells measuring up to 12cm (4.8in) in height, these plants are well-rooted and, where necessary, supplied with the central stem pinched to encourage strong, bushy growth. On arrival, simply pot them into 6 or 7cm pots, or, if you have space, plant directly into baskets and containers. Keep them somewhere warm and bright until established. A full growing guide is included to help you achieve the very best results. Plants will arrive ready for immediate potting on or planting, with heights ranging from 6–12cm from plug base to plant tip.
