G. rigens is a parent in many of the gazanias sold in commerce today. It is a tender perennial that features decumbent stems that spread along the ground. Narrow but variably-shaped, dandelion-like leaves (narrow spoon-shaped to lobed) are silvery green. Flowering stems typically rise 6-10” tall topped by solitary, daisy-like ray flowers (to 3-4” wide) with contrasting center disks. Ray flowers of this species are orange with black eyes at the bases and with orange-brown disks. Hybrid cultivars (often listed as cultivars of this species) come in a great variety of additional colors including shades of yellow, orange, bronze or white often with contrasting color at the bases forming a ring around the center disk. Can bloom summer to fall, often to first frost. Flowers close at night and may only partially open up on cloudy days. Genus honors Theodore de Gaza, 15th century Greek Scholar.Garden UsesMass in beds and borders. Containers. With its trailing stems, this species is particularly useful in hanging baskets.Shipping Method:- We shipping to worldwide by China post Air Mail, Hongkong post airmail or DHL or EMS; All items will be shipped within 5 business days.
