Hardy Perennial. Durable and easy to grow evergreen perennial that blooms year-round. What's not to love?! The Trailing African Daisy makes an excellent groundcover in hot, dry climates. Tolerates most soils as long as it has full sun and a well-drained soil. Drought-tolerant but will greatly benefit from one or two deep waterings during the summer. Attractive grown at the top of a retaining wall or container where it can hang down gracefully. Mowing in the spring every few years will promote new growth.
