Plant of the Week - Osteospernum

Our plant of the week this week is the beautiful 'Osteospernum'. A very useful plant for tubs, baskets etc, and also really good in rockerys, and other areas that are difficult to water (like when there is a water shortage!), as they are part succulent, and don't need watering as much as other bedding plants. If in a sheltered spot they can survive from one year to the next, and are notable because of the way the flowers open and close with the daylight!
