Colorado Gold Gazania

Colorado Gold gazania is a winter hardy, low growing perennial flower. It has thin, strappy leaves that form a deep green, glossy mound.

Bright, shiny yellow flowers start to appear in early summer and continue throughout the growing season. Peak bloom is in May. The flowers open early in the morning, closing at the end of the day or during inclement weather.

It self-seeds easily, so it can fill in an area over time.
