Beautiful!
lovely shot
@ Karen and Malcolm, thank you for following it through. It was good to see the Noah Rangers on the ball! No problems at all. Cheers Andrea
Thank you for everyone's comments. Much appreciated!
Wonderful!
Gorgeous!! I had those beauties in California, African Daisies, petals open like spoons, one of my favorite flower. Sadly they stated selling regular daisies as African Daisies in the Nurseries so people called them African daisies when they were not!
We only found the frangipaniOZ on the crystalgraphics page and Andrea Lim on the NatGeo page, that is why we investigated. Apologies for the confusion.
Gorgeous!
Natral is correct, it's an Osteospermum - a whirligig cultivar. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1923...
Beautiful flower & photo!
Thanks for clarifying Andrea! Apologies, we have to ask the question but we do unfortunately get people sharing images they have seen on the internet.
Lovely photo BTW!
Let me know please if it another name, because I would like to know. Cheers Andrea
