Dimorphotheca 
New African Golden Daisies 
Most of us know the African Daisies, sometimes called the 
Star of the Veldt, and have admired their bright blossoms 
which appear in daisy-like form two to three inches across. 
A showy effect is obtained by using mixed colors of African 
Daisies, and the dark shades of Bedding Petunias, sowing 
the seed broadcast or setting out the plants informally, giving 
the appearance of being broadcast. Delights in a sunny situation.
