ASTI SERIES
Osteospermum Seeds (African Daisy)
A breakthrough in Osteospermum breeding, the Asti series tolerates both extreme heat and light frosts, even as they continue to produce great rolling waves of elegant 2-3 inch daisies from early summer well into fall. Deadheading will assure the flowers keep right on coming. Plants grow as wide as they do tall reaching about 20 inches in each direction. Astis are high performers, well adapted to almost any climate and are knockouts in containers or garden beds.
