AFRICAN DAISIES.
Among the newer flowers which are particularly
happy in Southern California are the various daisies
from South Africa. Try the showy annual Venidi-
ums (above), the perennial Arctotis Hybrids (be¬
low), the Dimorphothecas (page 15), as well as the
splendid cutting Transvaal Daisy, or Gerbera (page
16.) Heliophila is a new blue South African annual.
(See page 18).
