Gazania flowers offer an extraordinary range of warm colors. Depending on the cultivar, blossoms may appear white, cream, yellow, gold, orange, bronze, coral, pink, red, burgundy, or combinations of these shades.
Many varieties feature dramatic contrasting rings, stripes, or dark markings near the center of each flower. Their petals often surround a golden or dark central disk, creating striking patterns when the flowers are fully open.
Gazania foliage can range from fresh green to gray-green or silvery green, often with paler undersides. Their combination of compact foliage and brilliant flowers makes Gazanias beautiful for sunny borders, rock gardens, containers, edging, and cottage-style displays.
