Notes
'Lavender Mist' African daisy (Osteospermum 'Lavender Mist') is a perennial for borders, containers, and rock gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry soil. The lavender flowers open white to palest lavender and darken with age around yellow centers. Deadhead it to keep blooms coming until frost. It forms a mound of green foliage and handles drought once established.
Pairs well with Cheddar pink, Autumn moor grass, and Elfin mother of thyme.
