Description

Arctotis hybrid Bronze is a hardy, evergreen, drought resistant, spreading groundcover with attractive grey foliage that stays quite compact and neat. It bears a multitude of colourful, large, daisy-like, bronze-coloured flowers for most of the year. The flowers attract butterflies and other pollinating insects to the garden.

Because of its free-flowering habit, it makes an excellent garden and container subject. Do not over-water and prune lightly and regularly to keep in shape. Remove the dead flowers regularly to encourage mass flowering. Plant in full sun or light semi-shade and in well-drained soil.

Size: 25cm

Wildlife

Plants for Pollinators:

Butterflies and other pollinating insects readily visit the flowers.

Uses

Landscaping:
