Gazania 'Big Kiss Yellow Flame'( BIG KISS SERIES)
Treasure Flower
This entry has yet to be reviewed and approved by L2G editors.
This treasure flower challenges the circus for visual excitement! Bearing striped, vividly contrasting yellow and red flowers in warm weather, the extra large daisy flowers 'Big Kiss Yellow Flame' feature a golden-orange eye surrounded by broader ray petals. Blooms, which close at night and on cloudy days, are singly borne on erect stems above low dense clumps of narrow spoon-shaped leaves. The leaves are dark green on top and lighter gray underneath.
Often grown as annuals, this hybrid cultivar is a short-lived, cold-tender herbaceous perennial that does best in full sun. It's best grown in well-drained, moderately fertile soils. Mass the extremely ornate 'Big Kiss Yellow Flame' in annual beds or as groundcover, or use it singly in pots for an outstanding conversation piece!
