One of the notable features of the Osteospermum 3D Deep Sun is its elongate lanceolate-shaped leaves, which have an entire or dentate leaf margin. These leaves grow to a size of about 4-5 cm, providing a beautiful backdrop for the flowers.
Although this plant boasts beautiful flowers and foliage, it is not hardy in USDA zones 9, 10, and 11. Therefore, it is best suited for regions with milder climates or as an annual that can be replanted each year.
The Osteospermum 3D Deep Sun has an inflorescence in the form of a capitulum or head, where multiple flowers bloom in a compact cluster. This creates a stunning display of flowers that last for several months. The plant typically begins to flower in April and continues to bloom until November, making it a long-lasting addition to any garden.
As a low-growing plant, the Osteospermum 3D Deep Sun reaches a height of 20-30 cm, making it suitable for both garden beds and containers. Its compact size and profuse blooming nature make it a great choice for adding color to borders, rock gardens, or even patio containers.
In terms of maintenance, the Osteospermum 3D Deep Sun requires full sun to thrive and should be watered regularly to keep the soil moist. It is also recommended to deadhead the faded flowers to promote continuous blooming throughout the growing season.
If you are looking for a plant that brings beauty and color to your garden, the Osteospermum 3D Deep Sun is an excellent choice. Its yellow-medium yellow flowers, dark green foliage, and compact size make it a standout among other plants. Whether you live in a milder climate or enjoy planting annuals, this African Daisy is sure to be a stunning addition to your outdoor space.
