A smaller Gazania forming a dense clump of glossy, dark green, divided leaves covered with 10cm, soft apricot, daisy-like flowers from late winter to summer.
Very lovely, many gardeners find these pastel toned varieties less intimidating.
An elegant and charming old variety. Aptly named with miniature, rounded blooms of pumpkin-apricot, held on relatively tall and slender stems that emerge from fans of proportionally slim, light green leaves. Very floriferous.
Evergreen. Diploid.
Absolutely gorgeous is the only way I can describe this South African Oxalis. From the onset of Autumn rain, until mid Spring, an endless procession of 1cm, yellow centred, soft orange, five petalled, funnel shaped flowers, clothe the feathery foliaged, mat forming stems.
Plant with any number of small bulbs for show stopping effect.
Makes an excellent pot subject.
An evergreen, clumping perennial. Throughout the warmer months tall stems bear, yellowy, apricotty, pink (hard to describe), funnel shaped flowers, with brown flecks on the yellow bases of the upper petals.
As they brown, spent stems can be removed by pulling.
Plant in well drained soil, feed well.
Superb cut flower.
A small grower with clusters of bright marmalade, four petalled flowers which are borne profusely from rosettes of narrow, toothed leaves, forming a loose shrub. Stunning, offset with rich toned purples or blues for saturated splendour.
For any well drained, very sunny soil, the leaner the better with too rich a soil diminishing flowering. Can get a little shaggy at times and can then be cut back hard when new basal growth is seen.
A clumping, evergreen perennial. Clumping rosettes of channeled, mid green, succulent, grass-like, arching leaves. In spring, densely packed spikes of pendant, tubular, apricot coloured flowers that surround the slender, erect stems are produced. Splendid architectural accent plants. Loved by nectar feeding birds. Bred in Australia by David Glen of Lambley Nursery.
A sensational and drought tolerant shrubby perennial from southern California. Pairs of slightly sticky dark green leaves clothe the soft scrambling stems and are joined in spring and summer by a endless profusion of widely flared, pale apricot, trumpet shaped flowers.
During the heat and dry conditions of summer the leaves slowly roll up to conserve moisture, to the gardener uninitiated in the ways of drought tolerant plants this would seem to demand a good watering but such action will sooner or later lead to the untimely demise of this beautiful plant.
Quick growing and happy in any soil with at least reasonable drainage.
At their happiest with light summer shade where the flowering period is greatly extended.
Perfect for planting beneath unirrigated roses for a world of unique colour combinations.
