Gazania 'New Day Pink Shades' is part of a series of gazanias selected for their compact habit, durability, drought tolerance, and larger daisy-like flowers with more uniform colours. The flowers of this variety display shades of pink around an orange-yellow heart. This tender perennial is usually grown as an annual. Gazanias, which have fallen out of fashion, are exceptional for their long-lasting and strikingly beautiful flowering. They are excellent flowers for hanging baskets, containers, rock gardens, and dry banks.
Gazania rigens, also known as treasure flower, belongs to the Asteraceae family. It is found throughout tropical and southern Africa. It is a fast-growing perennial, cultivated as an annual in Europe. The New Day Pink Shades cultivar forms a low, well-branched, and neat mound, about 20 to 25cm (8 to 10in) in all directions. The plant forms a cushion of tight rosettes composed of non-lobed, leathery leaves that are medium green on top with a greyer underside. From May to October, it produces short stems, each carrying a solitary and terminal inflorescence called a head. Each head has a double row of alternate ligulate florets in shades of pink. At the base of each ligule, a small rusty-brown motif bordered in black is visible. The small, tubular florets give a velvety appearance to the central yellow-orange disk. Note that gazania flowers only open in full sun
Gazania Pink Shades can be scattered in small patches, along well-drained borders or on a sunny bank, combined with taller, monochrome plants such as small grasses (stipa, carex), garden marigolds, nepetas, or dusty millers. They enhance the beauty of dry banks by accentuating their contours. Likewise, they are perfect in containers or flower beds that adorn a patio. Beginner or busy gardeners will appreciate them for both their beauty and simplicity. They are not demanding regarding soil conditions, as long as the soil is well-drained, and they can withstand long periods of drought. However, their flowering will decline if water is lacking.
Please be aware that our young plug plants are professional products intended for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, repot and store them under cover (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before planting them outdoors, once the risk of frost has definitely passed.

Botanical data
Gazanias are resilient plants that self-seed easily in the most unexpected places, including gravel paths or areas covered in limestone. They tolerate intense heat, drought, and poor soils. In summer, even light rain during extended drought will restart flowering. Plant them in well-drained, rocky or sandy soil, in full sun. These plants do not tolerate stagnant water. In warm climates, they can withstand temperatures as low as -8°C (17.6°F) for a short period when planted on a sunny bank in lightened soil. In cooler climates, the plants should be grown as annuals in open ground or in pots that can be stored indoors during winter in a bright and cool room, to keep them for several years.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
