This striking daisy-like perennial delivers pinkish-purple petals that frame a glowing golden yellow centre – a bold combination that perfectly captures the adventurous spirit of its namesake.
Gazania 'Christopher Lloyd' pays homage to the legendary gardener who revolutionised planting design with his fearless colour experiments at Great Dixter.
The vibrant blooms rise above a neat rosette of glossy, lance-shaped foliage that maintains its handsome appearance even when not in flower. Sun-loving and remarkably drought-tolerant, this resilient beauty opens fully on bright days, creating a dazzling display that commands attention in containers and sunny borders.
Perfect for coastal gardens or gravel plantings, this Gazania brings Mediterranean flair and unfading colour to summer displays, delivering the kind of head-turning impact that Christopher Lloyd himself would have celebrated.

Garden care:
Grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio. Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.
