Indigenous Flower Mix
African Daisy & Vygie
Growing Paper’s Indigenous Flower Mix is a celebration of South Africa’s floral heritage—bold, sun-loving, and beautifully resilient. Featuring the iconic African Daisy and the ever-cheerful Vygie, this mix brings a burst of local colour to any garden or pot. African Daisies open wide in the sun with radiant petals in shades of orange, pink, and white, attracting pollinators and turning heads with their daisy-like charm. Vygies, true to their name (from vygie, meaning “small fig”), dazzle with neon-bright blooms and succulent leaves that thrive in dry conditions. Together, they create a low-maintenance, high-impact display that’s perfect for water-wise gardening and proudly rooted in the Cape’s natural beauty. Sow, water, and watch your space come alive with indigenous flair.
