    Daisy Or not a Daisy

    I purchased a couple of daisy looking plants. They are white with purple centers and on the back they are purple as well. Does any one know what these are called? THe leaves are almost Holly looking in shape and color.

    Hi Msily,
    How large are the flowers - the size of a dime, a quarter, larger?

    Osteospermum comes to mind. Do they look anything like these?

    When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

    You're very welcome! You make me blush!! :oops: Glad you're pretty flowers have a name! I like them too. They always seem to look fresh and 'happy'!

    well your welcome. It is nice when they have names. I just found them at lowes and fell in love with the color of them. I agree they do look happy. Thank you again. :lol:
