Gazania rigida flowerhead

The daisy flowerheads of Gazania rigida grow solitary on woolly stalks. They have yellow, orange to near red ray florets mostly with dark markings at the ray bases, in a ring around the disk. The disk florets are the fertile ones while the ray florets are sterile. 

The plant can produce quite a show as the one in the photograph did during August near Worcester. The plants mostly flower in spring and summer after rain (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2015; Manning, 2007).
