| Bonjour à la communauté des "gardeners", je sollicite à nouveau votre aide pour l'identification de la plante dont la photo est jointe à ce post. s'agit-il de Arctotis x hybrida ? Merci d'avance pour vos lumières  |

| Bonjour JamalBellakhdar! I don't speak, or understand French but I do recognize the word identification.  I wonder if your lovely flowers might be a variety of African Daisy (Osteospermum) ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Merci Plantladylin pour votre réponse mais il me semblait que les feuilles n'avaient pas la même forme que celleà d'Osteospermum |

| From OP Hello to the gardeners community, I ask again your help for the identification of the plant whose photo is attached to this post. Is it Arctotis x hybrida? Thank you in advance - Thank you Plantladylin for your answer but it seemed to me that the leaves did not have the same shape as Osteospermum |

| It looks like an Osteospermum to me also.

| I have both, and I think Arctotis X. The leaves don't match Osteospermum. |

 The leaves are a closer match for African Daisy (Arctotis) and some do have yellow blooms.Many images for comparison on this page: https://www.bing.com/images/se... ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

Another name to search along with Arctotis is Venidium . I had lost the tag I had and had to search for the name. The one on the left is Arctotis, on the right is Venidium, with slightly smaller , greener leaves |

Carol, those are lovely!  ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Thank you! I have since divided the Arctotis and removed the Venidium as they were getting too big for that spot. |

| Venidium is apparently now a synonym for Arctotis. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Works for me! I can never remember Venidium. |

Oh darn! I was agreeing with the common name African Daisy and didn't check the genus. I HATE common names.
