This image is included in 2 galleries:- 1) " YELLOW " - 3 JUNE > 25 JULY, 2021" curated by Gianfranco Marzetti and 2) "Flowers 2" by artiste24 artiste24.
This was taken using my Sony mobile phone while waiting for my take-away coffee, halfway through my morning walk. Small pots of flowering plants were on display outside of Beasley's Nursery & Teahouse. Melbourne is in the midst of Stage 4 Covid-19 lockdown for the 4th time. Exercise is allowed within a 5 km radius. Let's keep our fingers crossed : better days will come!
Osteospermum ‘Blue Eyed Beauty’, also known as Veldt Daisies, has butter-yellow blooms with a strong central eye. The purple tinged, sky reflected blue in the central blotches, create a luminous and truly stunning appearance. ‘Blue Eyed Beauty’ grows in any climate, is strong and very weather-tolerant. It may bloom repeatedly most of the year in a sunny position.
Osteospermum, is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the Calenduleae, one of the smaller tribes of the sunflower/daisy family Asteraceae. They are known as the daisybushes or African daisies.
The scientific name is derived from the Greek osteon (bone) and Latin spermum (seed).
