Osteospermum Ecklonis ‘White Lightning’ (African Daisy) is a compact, long-flowering perennial valued for its crisp white daisy-like blooms that appear in abundance above neat green foliage. The clean white flowers create a bright, fresh effect in the garden and provide excellent contrast when paired with coloured foliage or mixed seasonal plantings. Its tidy, mounded growth habit makes it ideal for borders, mass plantings, rockeries, and containers, delivering consistent ornamental impact throughout the warmer months.

This hardy and reliable variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, performing exceptionally well in warm, dry conditions once established. Flowering prolifically from spring through autumn, it offers extended seasonal colour with minimal care while attracting pollinators to the garden. Low maintenance and drought tolerant, ‘White Lightning’ is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking dependable, long-lasting flowering performance in both residential and landscape settings.
