Hardiness

Half Hardy
Plant out after the last frost and they should do well throughout the growing season and into Autumn. If you have planted the Osteospermum in a pot, you can move the plant indoors in a sunny spot. It will last through the winter into the following spring when you can move it back outside after the last frost.
