Arctotis
‘Ultra Violet’

Resilient, drought tolerant, long blooming and deer resistant, this perennial “African Daisy” delivers the perfect marriage of beauty and practicality. Delighting us from Spring thru Fall with 3.5” glistening violet-pink daisy-like flowers around a central violet ring and black eye. Upright on 5” stems, they show nicely against the well-behaved 1’ x 3’ compact mound of fuzzy, silvery foliage. Works well in both cottage and dry gardens, and excellent in containers (5+ gal). Just make sure to provide good drainage. Deadheading promotes all season bloom. Extra awesome with 2x annual side-dress of compost. Cut back anytime to 5” tall to refresh. Bees and butterflies.
