Osterspermum Akila Mix Grand Canyon
Akila® Mix Grand Canyon African Daisy is covered in stunning mixed shades of yellow, purple, pink, orange and red daisy flowers at the ends of the stems from early summer to mid fall. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its spiny narrow leaves remain green in colour throughout the season. This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep. Trim off the flower heads after they fade and die to encourage more blooms late into the season. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats.
