New Day® Rose Stripe Gazania (Gazania rigens ‘New Day® Rose Stripe’)

New Day® Rose Stripe Gazania (Gazania rigens ‘New Day® Rose Stripe’) is a vibrant flowering annual prized for its unique striped blooms, compact habit, and exceptional heat tolerance. This eye-catching variety produces large daisy-like flowers featuring shades of soft pink, rose, and cream with distinctive striped patterns radiating from the centre, creating a colourful display from late spring until frost.

The striking blooms open fully in bright sunlight and create a dazzling display against the plant’s attractive green foliage. Their warm colouring and intricate striping make each flower a standout feature in containers, borders, rock gardens, and landscape plantings. The nectar-rich blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators throughout the growing season.

Part of the popular New Day® series, Rose Stripe develops a compact, well-branched habit that remains tidy and floriferous throughout the season. The plants are highly tolerant of heat, drought, and challenging growing conditions, making them ideal for sunny locations where many other annuals struggle. Their compact size also makes them perfect for smaller garden spaces and decorative containers.

In Alberta, New Day® Rose Stripe performs exceptionally well in hot, sunny conditions, providing reliable blooms and vibrant colour from planting time until frost.
