6''/14cm pot | Felicia amelloides
Blue Marguerite is eye catching wherever it is planted, with its striking sky-blue and sunny yellow flowerheads, which stand well above the leaves.
Apart from its beauty, this plant has many advantages. It is hardy, fast growing, long-flowering and long-lived, more or less frost and wind-resistant, needing only moderate water and little care. As blue is a difficult colour to get into a garden, this is definitely a plant that will draw attention.
