Yes, "African Daisy", Osteospermum 'Astra Purple Sunset'. I had some purple ones that have come back the past three or four years so I wanted to get more this spring. I was at a local nursery and they had lots of them with the label Astra Purple Sunset so I bought them thinking they would be just like the ones I already had. At first when the blooms began peeking open I was a bit disappointed but when they were fully open I realized no disappointment was necessary, they are gorgeous and I really like them a lot!


This is the lilac/purple color Osteospermum I've had growing in beds for a few years.
