Overview

Boasting a striking red-purple hue, this compact cultivar stands out with its single, daisy-like flowers set against a backdrop of dark green, tooth-edged foliage.

Osteospermum 'Dalina Dark Red' flowers over a long summer period if deadheaded regularly, and its compact habit makes it an excellent choice for smaller spaces, patio pots or as a front-of-border plant, where its eye-catching, pollinator friendly blooms can be fully appreciated.

Specifications

  • Position: Full sun
  • Soil: Moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil, or peat-free general purpose compost
  • Rate of growth: Average
  • Flowering period: June to September
  • Hardiness: Borderline hardy (will need protection in winter in colder areas)

Care guide

Osteospermum prefer well-drained soil and can suffer during very wet winters. To protect plants that are susceptible to rot in wet winter conditions, ensure they are planted in well-draining soil and consider adding grit or sand to the surrounding planting area to improve drainage.

Raise beds or plant in containers if necessary, and avoid spots where water collects. If wet conditions are unavoidable, consider using a cloche or cold frame to shield the plants from excessive moisture.

Grow in full sun to allow the flowers to fully open and deadhead regularly to prolong flowering. When grown in a pot, move to a sheltered spot during the winter months.

Warning

Pets: Harmful if eaten
