African daisy is native to South Africa and was introduced to South Australia in ship ballast at Port Lincoln in about 1930. African daisy tolerates a wide range of soil types and occupies areas with 500 to 1500 mm annual rainfall. Like all South African wildflowers, this beauty is best grown in sharp-draining soil, not heavy loam or clay. If conditions are right, African Daisy can provide spectacularly colorful bloom and easily established from wildflower seed.
