Plant Summary

Osteospermum moniliferum, or bietou, is a fast-growing, semi-succulent shrub with bright yellow daisy-like flowers and edible berries. It is a versatile and attractive plant that can be used as a pioneer, screening plant, hedge, or ground cover. It attracts bees and birds with its nectar and fruits, and has a history of medicinal and culinary use by the Khoi and San people. Bietou is easy to grow in sunny, well-drained positions and tolerates drought, wind, and coastal conditions. It flowers mainly in autumn and winter, adding a splash of color to the garden.
