Felicia or Felisia, originally from South Africa, is a beautiful bush that has delicate flowers that are small daisies from the distinctive Blu-China color. The most common species are the "Felicia pappei" also called "Aster pappei" and "Felicia amelloides" also called "Agataea caelesti".
Its ancient Greek name means "goodness of the sky" and in fact the link with the sky blue is immediate!
Being small bushes (maximum height 45 cm) are very good for forming colored borders or even being cultivated in a pot. The months of flowering are the summer ones and since Felicia loves the sun it is good to ensure a sunny position and, of course, good watering.
Plants can be perennial or annual and as simple as cultivating they do not like very low temperatures below zero.
I love these little daisies that have the petals with the color of the sky and the yellow heart.
They are absolutely delightful when combined with the bright green of a lawn.
The cost of these plants is not excessive, about 4-5 euros, but it is worth them all.
Thanks for your time.
