jucundas and any hardy variaties

Looking through RHS Plant Finder, they list a large number of

Osteospermum
supliers. Which county are you in ?

UK of course London west


Only a couple in your area, ring them to enquire as to hardiness and if they
have other varieties, they are :-

Hortus Nursery, Shepperton, 01932 242216 and listed as stocking Osteo' Lady
Leitrim.

Wisley Plant Centre, Woking, 01483 211113 listed :-
Osteo' Buttermilk, Gold Sparkler, Silver Sparkler,
Sunny Alex, Sunny Martha, Stardust, Pink Whorls,
White Pim, Zambezi, Zimbar and Zulu.

If you are ever in the Herts area there is Hopleys Plants at Much Hadham,
01279 842509 and they stock their own variety 'Hopleys' also Buttermilk,
Vega, Lady Leitrim and
Weetwood.

Good luck and happy hunting ...............Paul


much obliged for taking the trouble to check,
no mention of the hardy jucundas version though..
i will have to check on these on the very helpfull.
osteospermuma.com website
has it all on these African daisy plants
it seems that you cannot raise them from seeds .
only cuttings
looks like the wisley place is the nearest but still an hours drive
from my place.
